## Description
### TL;DR:
It's currently not possible to render our field components from a server
component because their `field` prop is the original field config, not
the _client_ config which our components require. Currently, the `field`
prop passed into custom fields changes type depending on whether it's a
server or client component, leaving server components without any access
to the client field config or mechanism to acquire it.
This PR passes the client config to all server field components through
a new `clientField` prop. This allows the following in a server
component, which is very similar to how client field components
currently work:
Server component:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomServerField: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```
Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomClientField: TextFieldClientComponent = ({ field }) => {
return <TextField field={field} />
}
```
### Full Background
If you have a custom field component, and it's a server component, there
is currently no way to pass the field prop into Payload's client-side
field components.
Here's an example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = (props) => {
const { field } = props
return (
<TextField field={field} /> // This is not possible
)
}
```
The config needs to be transformed into a client config, however,
because of the sheer number of hard-to-find arguments that the
`createClientField` requires, we cannot use it in its raw form.
Here is another example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import { createClientField } from '@payloadcms/ui/utilities/createClientField'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
const clientField = createClientField({...}) // Not a good option bc it requires many hard-to-find args
return (
<TextField field={clientField} />
)
}
```
Theoretically, we could preformat a `createFieldConfig` function so it
can simply be called without arguments:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
return <TextField field={createClientField()} />
}
```
But this means the field config would be evaluated twice unnecessarily,
including label functions, etc.
The right way to fix this is to simply pass the client config to server
components through a new `clientField` prop:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```

## Description
Currently, you cannot create, delete, or duplicate documents within the
document drawer directly. To create a document within a relationship
field, for example, you must first navigate to the parent field and open
the "create new" drawer. Similarly (but worse), to duplicate or delete a
document, you must _navigate to the parent document to perform these
actions_ which is incredibly disruptive to the content editing workflow.
This becomes especially apparent within the relationship field where you
can edit documents inline, but cannot duplicate or delete them. This PR
supports all document-level actions within the document drawer so that
these actions can be performed on-the-fly without navigating away.
Inline duplication flow on a polymorphic "hasOne" relationship:

Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7952
Adds support for `in` and `not_in` operator against JSON field filters.
The following queries are now valid in postgres as well, previously it
only worked in mongo
```ts
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
not_in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
```
The `BlockField` type is not representative of the underlying "blocks"
field type, which is plural, i.e. `BlocksField`. This is a semantic
change that will better align the type with the field.
## Breaking Changes
Types related to the `blocks` field have change names. If you were using
the `BlockField` or related types in your own applications, simply
change the import name to be plural and instead of singular.
Old (singular):
```ts
import type {
BlockField,
BlockFieldClient,
BlockFieldValidation,
BlockFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlockFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlockFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlockFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlockFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
New (plural):
```ts
import type {
BlocksField,
BlocksFieldClient,
BlocksFieldValidation,
BlocksFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
## Description
Fixes the bug I reported in
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8139 where the casing of
the defined value (camelCase) of Vercel's Postgres database adapter does
not match the casing of the package (kebab-case).
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7867
Problem: currently, setting an
```ts
admin: {
width: '30%'
}
```
does not work for fields inside a row or similar (group, array etc.)
Solution: when we render the field, we set a CSS variable
`--field-width` with the value of `admin.width`. This allows us to
calculate the correct width for a field in CSS by doing `flex: 0 1
var(--field-width);`
It also allows us to properly handle `gap` with `flex-wrap: wrap;`
Notes: added playwright tests to ensure widths are correctly rendered

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8107
This has been confusing for people from countries where characters
aren't latin, for example the Japanese file name:
フェニックス.png
Turns into:
ãã§ããã¯ã¹.png
Additionally, ensures type-safety for `DEFAULT_OPTIONS` and removes
unused `fileHandler` property from there, which isn't defined in the
`FetchAPIFileUploadOptions` type.

## Description
Fixes#8038, which was broken in #7817
I'm not entirely sure if this change violates the original intent of the
"base" utility, which from what I understand was introduced for
scalability reasons. Either way, I think it's a good idea to keep the
indent at 40px all the time.
The reason for this is that browsers use 40px as the indentation setting
for lists, and using that setting the indented paragraphs and headings
match the lists. See https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/4025

## Description
Currently, there is no way of typing custom server field components.
This is because internally, all field components are client components,
and so these were never fully typed. For example, the docs currently
indicate for all custom fields to be typed in this way:
Old:
```tsx
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: React.FC<TextFieldProps>
```
But if your component is a server component, you will never receive the
fully typed `field` prop, `payload` prop, etc. unless you've typed that
yourself using some of the underlying utilities. So to fix this, every
field now explicitly exports a type for each environment:
New:
- Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: TextFieldClientComponent
```
- Server component:
```tsx
export const MyServerTextFieldComponent: TextFieldServerComponent
```
This pattern applies to every field type, where the field name is
prepended onto the component type.
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
TextareaFieldClientComponent,
TextareaFieldServerComponent,
TextareaFieldClientProps,
TextareaFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each field type
} from 'payload'
```
## BREAKING CHANGES
We are no longer exporting `TextFieldProps` etc. for each field type.
Instead, we now export props for each client/server environment
explicitly. If you were previously importing one of these types into
your custom component, simply change the import name to reflect your
environment.
Old:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldProps } from 'payload'
```
New:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldClientProps, TextFieldServerProps } from 'payload'
```

## Description
By default all api requests are creating transactions due to the
authentication stategy. This change removes transactions for auth and
login requests. This should only happen when the database needs to make
changes in which case the auth strategy or login lockout updates will
invoke their own transactions still.
This should improve performance without any sacrifice to database
consistency.

## Description
Currently, the relationship field's _value(s)_ each render and controls
its own document drawer. This has led to `hasMany` relationships
processing a potentially large number of drawers unnecessarily. But the
real problem is when attempting to perform side-effects as a result of a
drawer action. Currently, when you change the value of a relationship
field, all drawers within are (rightfully) unmounted because the
component representing the value was itself unmounted. This meant that
you could not update the title of a document, for example, then update
the underlying field's value, without also closing the document drawer
outright. This is needed in order to support things like creating and
duplicating documents within document drawers (#7679).

Previously, on some machines this command:
`pnpx create-payload-app@beta app` created a project using `npm`,
instead of `pnpm`, the same with `yarn`.
Also, the way we detected the package manager was always prioritizing
`pnpm`, even if they executed the command with `yarn` / `npm`. Now we
are relying only on from which package manager user executed
`create-payload-app`.
The code for detection is grabbed from create-next-app

## Description
Reduces the number of client-side requests made by the relationship
field component, and fixes the visual "blink" of the field's value on
initial load. Does so through a new `useIgnoredEffect` hook that allows
this component's effects to be precisely triggered based on whether a
only _subset_ of its dependencies have changed, which looks something
like this:
```tsx
// ...
useIgnoredEffect(() => {
// Do something
}, [deps], [ignoredDeps])
```
"Ignored deps" are still treated as normal dependencies of the
underlying `useEffect` hook, but they do not cause the provided function
to execute. This is useful if you have a list of dependencies that
change often, but need to scope your effect's logic to explicit
dependencies within that list. This is a typical pattern in React using
refs, just standardized within a reusable hook.
This significantly reduces the overall number of re-renders and
duplicative API requests within the relationship field because the
`useEffect` hooks that control the fetching of these related documents
were running unnecessarily often. In the future, we really ought to
leverage the `RelationshipProvider` used in the List View so that we can
also reduce the number of duplicative requests across _unrelated fields_
within the same document.

We noticed that we can bring functions down to the client directly
without having to wrap them in a component first. This greatly
simplifies the loading of all lexical client components
**BREAKING:**
- `createClientComponent` is no longer exported as it's not needed
anymore
- The exported `ClientComponentProps` type has been renamed to
`BaseClientFeatureProps`.
- The order of arguments in `sanitizeClientEditorConfig` has changed
Removes `loggerOptions` and `loggerDestination` from `initOptions`
(these were not able to be used anyway).
Creates new `logger` property on the Payload config.
```ts
// Logger options only
logger: {
level: 'info',
}
// Logger options with destination stream
logger: {
options: {
level: 'info',
},
destination: process.stdout
},
// Logger instance
logger: pino({ name: 'my-logger' })
```
Now enforcing curly brackets on all if statements. Includes auto-fixer.
```ts
// ❌ Bad
if (foo) foo++;
// ✅ Good
if (foo) {
foo++;
}
```
Note: this did not lint the `drizzle` package or any `db-*` packages.
This will be done in the future.
## Description
Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest
fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field
within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary.
There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized
parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field
onward would be localized.
Up until this point, Payload would _allow_ you to nest a localized field
within another localized field, and this might have worked in MongoDB
but it will throw errors in Postgres.
Now, Payload will automatically remove the `localized: true` property
from sub-fields within `sanitizeFields` if a parent field is localized.
This could potentially be a breaking change if you have a configuration
with MongoDB that nests localized fields within localized fields.
## Migrating
You probably only need to migrate if you are using MongoDB, as there,
you may not have noticed any problems. But in Postgres or SQLite, this
would have caused issues so it's unlikely that you've made it too far
without experiencing issues due to a nested localized fields config.
In the event you would like to keep existing data in this fashion, we
have added a `compatibility.allowLocalizedWithinLocalized` flag to the
Payload config, which you can set to `true`, and Payload will then
disable this new sanitization step.
Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing
Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized
fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.
Move `ui` and `translations` from peerDeps into deps for a few packages.
Users should not have to install these directly unless they are making
customizations.

The enabledCollections and disabledCollections properties of the
RelationshipFeature were not being sent to the client and therefore did
not have the expected effect.
Now those 2 properties are sent to the client via the
`clientFeatureProps` property.
## Description
In Postgres, localized blocks or arrays that contain other array / block
/ relationship fields were not properly storing locales in the database.
Now they are! Need to check a few things yet:
- Ensure test coverage is sufficient
- Test localized array, with non-localized array inside of it
- Test localized block with relationship field within it
- Ensure `_rels` table gets the `locale` column added if a single
non-localized relationship exists within a localized array / block
Fixes step 6 as identified in #7805
## Description
Fixes a race condition where you could switch locales and have autosave
trigger with old locale data.
By adding the `key` to the `Document` component, we will ensure that the
entire `Document` will be un-mounted and re-mounted between locale
switches.
Fixes:
- issue with publish button double saving on keyboard command
- versions diffs not showing if fields are tabs

- navigation on versions not working for perPage and pagination

This fixes that type in the website template:
3d86bf1974/templates/website/src/app/components/RichText/serialize.tsx (L24)
Now, JsonObject still ensures that only objects can be passed, but it's
weak enough to allow non-dynamic types like the ones we generate in
payload-types.
The "JSON" part of this type has no meaning anymore, as it does allow
objects with functions now. However, we can still use it to signal to
the user that this should be JSON-serializable. It's more clear than
just using Record<string, unknown>
Dedicated adapter for Vercel Postgres
- Uses the `@vercel/postgres` package under the hood.
- No `pg` dependency, speeds up invocation
- Includes refactoring all base postgres functionality into a
`BasePostgresAdapter` type, which will ease implementation of [other
adapters supported by
drizzle-orm](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/get-started-postgresql)
## Usage
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { vercelPostgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres'
export default buildConfig({
db: vercelPostgresAdapter({
pool: {
connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URI,
},
}),
// ...rest of config
})
```
### Automatic Connection String Detection
Have Vercel automatically detect from environment variable (typically
`process.env.POSTGRES_URL`)
```ts
export default buildConfig({
db: postgresAdapter(),
// ...rest of config
})
```
Supports `hasMany` upload fields, similar to how `hasMany` works in
other fields, i.e.:
```ts
{
type: 'upload',
relationTo: 'media',
hasMany: true
}
```

## Description
Closes#7784 by properly handling custom collection description
components via `admin.components.Description`. This component was
incorrectly added to the `admin.components.edit` key, and also was never
handled on the front-end. This was especially misleading because the
client-side config had a duplicative key in the proper position.
## Breaking Changes
This PR is only labeled as a breaking change because the key has changed
position within the config. If you were previously defining a custom
description component on a collection, simply move it into the correct
position:
Old:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
edit: {
Description: ''
}
}
}
}
```
New:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
Description: ''
}
}
}
```

## Description
Threads the field config to all "field subcomponents" through props,
i.e. field label, description, error, etc. This way, the field config
that controls any particular component is easily accessible and strongly
typed, i.e. `props.field.maxLength`. This is true for both server and
client components, whose server-side props are now also contextually
typed. This behavior was temporarily removed in #7474 due to bloating
HTML, but has since been resolved in #7620. This PR also makes
significant improvements to component types by exporting explicit types
for _every component of every field_, each with its own client/server
variation. Now, a custom component can look something like this:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomLabel: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div>{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.field?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
The following types are now available:
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
// ...and so one for each field
} from 'payload'
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
In order to strictly type these components, a few breaking changes have
been made _solely to type definitions_. This only effects you if you are
heavily using custom components.
Old
```ts
import type { ErrorComponent, LabelComponent, DescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FieldErrorClientComponent,
FieldErrorServerComponent,
FieldLabelClientComponent,
FieldLabelServerComponent,
FieldDescriptionClientComponent,
FieldDescriptionServerComponent,
// Note: these are the generic, underlying types of the more stricter types described above ^
// For example, you should use the type that is explicit for your particular field and environment
// i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent` and not simply `FieldLabelClientComponent`
} from 'payload'
```

This noticeably improves performance in the admin panel, for example
when there are multiple richtext editors on one page (& likely
performance in other areas too, though I mainly tested rich text).
The babel plugin currently only optimizes files with a 'use client'
directive at the top - thus we have to make sure to add use client
wherever possible, even if it's imported by a parent client component.
There's one single component that broke when it was compiled using the
React compiler (it stopped being reactive and failed one of our admin
e2e tests):
150808f608
opting out of it completely fixed that issue
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7366
Example: richText editor 1 and 2 both have UploadFeature. richText
editor 1 calls UploadFeature() with custom fields, richText editor 2
calls UploadFeature() with NO custom fields. Before this PR, richText
editor 1 would not have had any custom fields, as richText editor 2 will
override the feature object (specifically its props).

Old blank templates had invalid pregenerated importMap. Would error for
fresh apps from create-payload-app. And website was on an old version
riddled with bugs
Also a nice performance improvement. The list drawer was previously
fetching data with depth 1. This will cause the relationship cell to
break, as it expects the relationship data to be a string/number, not a
populated object with the id inside.
Now, it fetches using depth 0 - same as the normal list view

If it's undefined/null => Fallback Component may be rendered
If it's false => No component should be rendered - as if an empty
component was passed in
This ensures that the user does not have to install `@payloadcms/ui`
anymore, which previously exported an empty component to be used in
component paths
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7677
- Payload bin scripts were not properly working on windows
- Use tsx by default instead of swc, as swc does not handle next/cache
imports without the .js at the end
- Support other node runtimes through --disable-transpile flag
## Description
We've since lost the ability to override the document view at the
root-level. This was a feature that made it possible to override _the
entire document routing/view structure_, including the document
header/tabs and all nested routes within, i.e. the API route/view, the
Live Preview route/view, etc. This is distinct from the "default" edit
view, which _only_ targets the component rendered within the "edit" tab.
This regression was introduced when types were simplified down to better
support "component paths" here: #7620. The `default` key was incorrectly
used as the "root" view override. To continue to support stricter types
_and_ root view overrides, a new `root` key has been added to the
`views` config.
You were previously able to do this:
```tsx
import { MyComponent } from './MyComponent.js'
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
Edit: MyComponent
}
}
}
```
This is now done like this:
```tsx
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
edit: {
root: {
Component: './path-to-my-component.js'
}
}
}
}
}
```
Some of the documentation was also incorrect according to the new
component paths API.

- regenerates the lockfile
- upgrades pnpm from v8 to v9.7.0 minimum
- ensures playwright does not import payload config. Even after our
importmap revamp that made the payload config server-only / node-safe, I
was getting these `Error: Invariant: AsyncLocalStorage accessed in
runtime where it is not available` errors in combination with pnpm v9
and lockfile regeneration.
This does not happen with pnpm v8, however I'm still blaming playwright
for this, as this does not happen in dev and we've had this specific
error with playwright in the past when we were importing the payload
config. Perhaps it's related to both playwright and the future Next.js
process importing the same config file, and not related to the config
file containing client-side React code.
Making sure playwright doesn't import the config fixed it (it was
importing it through the import map generation). The import map
generation is now run in a separate process, and playwright simply waits
for it
- One positive thing: this pr fixes a bunch of typescript errors with
react-select components. We got those errors because react-select types
are not compatible with react 19. lockfile regeneration fixed that (not
related to pnpm v9) - probably because we were installing mismatching
react versions (I saw both `fb9a90fa48-20240614` and `06d0b89e-20240801`
in our lockfile). I have thus removed the caret for react and react-dom
in our package.json - now it's consistent
This lowers the module count by 31 modules
BREAKING: Migration-related lexical modules are now exported from
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/migrate` instead of
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical`
Allow a compound index to be used for upload collections via a
`filenameCompoundIndex` field. Previously, `filename` was always treated
as unique.
Usage:
```ts
{
slug: 'upload-field',
upload: {
// Slugs to include in compound index
filenameCompoundIndex: ['filename', 'alt'],
},
}
```
This PR makes three major changes to the codebase:
1. [Component Paths](#component-paths)
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
2. [Client Config](#client-config)
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
3. [Custom client component are no longer
server-rendered](#custom-client-components-are-no-longer-server-rendered)
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
## Component Paths
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
In order to reference any custom components in the Payload config, you
now have to specify a string path to the component instead of importing
it.
Old:
```ts
import { MyComponent2} from './MyComponent2.js'
admin: {
components: {
Label: MyComponent2
},
},
```
New:
```ts
admin: {
components: {
Label: '/collections/Posts/MyComponent2.js#MyComponent2', // <= has to be a relative path based on a baseDir configured in the Payload config - NOT relative based on the importing file
},
},
```
### Local API within Next.js routes
Previously, if you used the Payload Local API within Next.js pages, all
the client-side modules are being added to the bundle for that specific
page, even if you only need server-side functionality.
This `/test` route, which uses the Payload local API, was previously 460
kb. It is now down to 91 kb and does not bundle the Payload client-side
admin panel anymore.
All tests done
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/tree/feat/path-test)
with beta.67/PR, db-mongodb and default richtext-lexical:
**dev /admin before:**

**dev /admin after:**

---
**dev /test before:**

**dev /test after:**

---
**build before:**

**build after::**

### Usage of the Payload Local API / config outside of Next.js
This will make it a lot easier to use the Payload config / local API in
other, server-side contexts. Previously, you might encounter errors due
to client files (like .scss files) not being allowed to be imported.
## Client Config
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
This is breaking change. The `useComponentMap` hook no longer exists,
and most component props have changed (for the better):
```ts
const { componentMap } = useComponentMap() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
The `useConfig` hook has also changed in shape, `config` is now a
property _within_ the context obj:
```ts
const config = useConfig() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
## Custom Client Components are no longer server rendered
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
The benefit of this change:
Custom client components can now receive props. Previously, the only way
for them to receive dynamic props from a parent client component was to
use hooks, e.g. `useFieldProps()`. Now, we do have the option of passing
in props to the custom components directly, if they are client
components. This will be simpler than having to look for the correct
hook.
This makes rendering them on the client a little bit more complex, as
you now have to check if that component is a server component (=>
already has been rendered) or a client component (=> not rendered yet,
has to be rendered here). However, this added complexity has been
alleviated through the easy-to-use `<RenderMappedComponent />` helper.
This helper now also handles rendering arrays of custom components (e.g.
beforeList, beforeLogin ...), which actually makes rendering custom
components easier in some cases.
## Misc improvements
This PR includes misc, breaking changes. For example, we previously
allowed unions between components and config object for the same
property. E.g. for the custom view property, you were allowed to pass in
a custom component or an object with other properties, alongside a
custom component.
Those union types are now gone. You can now either pass an object, or a
component. The previous `{ View: MyViewComponent}` is now `{ View: {
Component: MyViewComponent} }` or `{ View: { Default: { Component:
MyViewComponent} } }`.
This dramatically simplifies the way we read & process those properties,
especially in buildComponentMap. We can now simply check for the
existence of one specific property, which always has to be a component,
instead of running cursed runtime checks on a shared union property
which could contain a component, but could also contain functions or
objects.

You can now override the apiKey field with access control by adding this
field to your auth collection:
```ts
{
name: 'apiKey',
type: 'text',
access: {
update: ({ req }) => req.user.role === 'admin',

Translated labels are now also supported.
Note that `siblingData` isn't working still in FieldAccess control and
`data` only works in non-dynamic fields, eg. fields not in an array or

Fixes#7492
In order to run createMigration, we need to read in the previous
snapshot file if one exists. When that snapshot was generated from an
older version of drizzle-kit, we have to first migrate it up match the
latest version for drizzle to generate the new migration. This change
adds in the call to check the version and migrate the snapshot if
needed.

Allows the server to initialize the AuthProvider via props. Renames
`HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`. It now only hydrates the
permissions as the user can be set from props. Permissions can be
initialized from props, but still need to be hydrated for some pages as
access control can be specific to docs/lists etc.
**BREAKING CHANGE**
- Renames exported `HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`

When the Upload HTML Converter was called from the local API, the upload
document did not populate properly due to overrideAccess not being
passed through to the dataloader. This PR also adds new properties to
the afterRead field hook, so that these can be used in the lexical html
field.
Reproduction here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/chore/reproduce-html-converter-issue
**BREAKING:** If you define your own, custom lexical HTML Converters
that have sub-nodes, or if you directly call the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function anywhere, you now need to pass
through the `showHiddenFields`, draft and `overrideAccess` props to the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function. These are available in the
arguments of your HTML Converter function

This PR
- upgrades lexical and ports all bug fixes from the playground over
- adds table action buttons. When hovering the edges of the table,
buttons pop up to easily add a new table column or row
- adds an html converter for the table feature
- makes the placeholder shown in the editor when no text is present
accessible
**BREAKING:** This upgrades lexical from 0.16.1 to 0.17.0. If you have
any lexical packages installed in your project, please update them
accordingly. Additionally, if you depend on the lexical APIs, please
consult their changelog, as lexical may introduce breaking changes:

Since the `defaultIDType` for IDs in `postgres` are of type `number` -
the `contains` operator should be available in the filter options.
This PR checks the `defaultIDType` of ID and properly outputs the
correct component type for IDs
I.e if ID is of type `number` - the filter operators for ID should
correspond to the the operators of type number as well
The `contains` operator only belongs on fields of type string, aka of
component type `text`

- Updates admin UI with more condensed spacing throughout.
- Improves hover states and read-only states for various components.
- Removes the `Merriweather` font from `next/font` and replaces with
stack of system serif fonts and fallbacks (Georgia, etc). Closes#7257
## BREAKING CHANGES
- Custom components and styling that don't utilize Payload's CSS/SCSS
variables may need adjustments to match the updated styling.
- If you are using the `Merriweather` font, you will need to manually
configure `next/font` in your own project.

fix#4990 (v3)
## Description
Expose
[useTableColumns](b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/TableColumns/index.tsx (L25))
hook from client exported members of the ui packages.
The use of this hook, covered the case of custom ListView creation which
was not possible due to the lack of possibility to select a file if we
were in the "list-draw" view.
With `useTableColumns` we can execute the `onClick` defined in
`TableColumnsProvider` witch allows the selection on the clicked file.
b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/ListDrawer/DrawerContent.tsx (L290-L296)
## Use case
CustomListView.tsx:
```ts
const CustomListView = () => {
// ...
const tableColumns = useTableColumns()
const handleItemClicked = (doc) => {
const onClick = tableColumns.columns[0].cellProps?.onClick
if (typeof onClick === 'function') {
// we are in "list-drawer" view, execute the onClick function
onClick({
cellData: undefined,
collectionSlug: doc,
rowData: doc,
})
} else {
// we are in "collection-admin" view, push the new route with next/navigation
void router.push(`${collectionSlug}/${doc.id}`)
}
}
return <div className={"list"}>
{data.docs?.length > 0 && (
<RelationshipProvider>
{docs.map((e, i) => (
<div className={"item"} key={i} onClick={() => handleItemClicked(e)}>
// ...
</div>
))}
</RelationshipProvider>
)}
</div>
}
```
This video shows the click of a file inside a CustomListView, in the
case of an "admin-collection" view then a "list-drawer" view.

## Description
Prior to this change, the `defaultValue` for fields have only been used
in the application layer of Payload. With this change, you get the added
benefit of having the database columns get the default also. This is
especially helpful when adding new columns to postgres with existing
data to avoid needing to write complex migrations. In MongoDB this
change applies the default to the Mongoose model which is useful when
calling payload.db.create() directly.
This only works for statically defined values.

To swap in your own Custom Component, consult the list of available components. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then [author your React component(s)](#building-custom-components) accordingly.
## Defining Custom Components in the Payload Config
In the Payload Config, you can define custom React Components to enhance the admin interface. However, these components should not be imported directly into the server-only Payload Config to avoid including client-side code. Instead, you specify the path to the component. Here’s how you can do it:
src/components/Logout.tsx
```tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
export const MyComponent = () => {
return (
<button>Click me!</button>
)
}
```
payload.config.ts:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: { // highlight-line
components: {
logout: {
Button: '/src/components/Logout#MyComponent'
}
}
},
})
```
In the path `/src/components/Logout#MyComponent`, `/src/components/Logout` is the file path, and `MyComponent` is the named export. If the component is the default export, the export name can be omitted. Path and export name are separated by a `#`.
### Configuring the Base Directory
Component paths, by default, are relative to your working directory - this is usually where your Next.js config lies. To simplify component paths, you have the option to configure the *base directory* using the `admin.baseDir.baseDir` property:
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { fileURLToPath } from 'node:url'
import path from 'path'
const filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
const dirname = path.dirname(filename)
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: { // highlight-line
importMap: {
baseDir: path.resolve(dirname, 'src'),
},
components: {
logout: {
Button: '/components/Logout#MyComponent'
}
}
},
})
```
In this example, we set the base directory to the `src` directory - thus we can omit the `/src/` part of our component path string.
### Passing Props
Each React Component in the Payload Config is typed as `PayloadComponent`. This usually is a string, but can also be an object containing the following properties:
| `clientProps` | Props to be passed to the React Component if it's a Client Component |
| `exportName` | Instead of declaring named exports using `#` in the component path, you can also omit them from `path` and pass them in here. |
| `path` | Path to the React Component. Named exports can be appended to the end of the path, separated by a `#` |
| `serverProps` | Props to be passed to the React Component if it's a Server Component |
To pass in props from the config, you can use the `clientProps` and/or `serverProps` properties. This alleviates the need to use an HOC (Higher-Order-Component) to declare a React Component with props passed in.
It's essential to understand how `PayloadComponent` paths function behind the scenes. Directly importing React Components into your Payload Config using import statements can introduce client-only modules like CSS into your server-only config. This could error when attempting to load the Payload Config in server-only environments and unnecessarily increase the size of the Payload Config, which should remain streamlined and efficient for server use.
Instead, we utilize component paths to reference React Components. This method enhances the Payload Config with actual React Component imports on the client side, without affecting server-side usage. A script is deployed to scan the Payload Config, collecting all component paths and creating an `importMap.js`. This file, located in app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js, must be statically imported by your Next.js root page and layout. The script imports all the React Components from the specified paths into a Map, associating them with their respective paths (the ones you defined).
When constructing the `ClientConfig`, Payload uses the component paths as keys to fetch the corresponding React Component imports from the Import Map. It then substitutes the `PayloadComponent` with a `MappedComponent`. A `MappedComponent` includes the React Component and additional metadata, such as whether it's a server or a client component and which props it should receive. These components are then rendered through the `<RenderComponent />` component within the Payload Admin Panel.
Import maps are regenerated whenever you modify any element related to component paths. This regeneration occurs at startup and whenever Hot Module Replacement (HMR) runs. If the import maps fail to regenerate during HMR, you can restart your application and execute the `payload generate:importmap` command to manually create a new import map. If you encounter any errors running this command, see the [Troubleshooting](/docs/beta/local-api/outside-nextjs#troubleshooting) section.
### Component paths in external packages
Component paths are resolved relative to your project's base directory, which is either your current working directory or the directory specified in `config.admin.baseDir`. When using custom components from external packages, you can't use relative paths. Instead, use an import path that's accessible as if you were writing an import statement in your project's base directory.
For example, to export a field with a custom component from an external package named `my-external-package`:
Despite `MyFieldComponent` living in `src/components/MyFieldComponent.tsx` in `my-external-package`, this will not be accessible from the consuming project. Instead, we recommend exporting all custom components from one file in the external package. For example, you can define a `src/client.ts file in `my-external-package`:
```ts
'use client'
export { MyFieldComponent } from './components/MyFieldComponent'
```
Then, update the package.json of `my-external-package:
```json
{
...
"exports": {
"./client": {
"import": "./dist/client.js",
"types": "./dist/client.d.ts",
"default": "./dist/client.js"
}
}
}
```
This setup allows you to specify the component path as `my-external-package/client#MyFieldComponent` as seen above. The import map will generate:
```ts
import { MyFieldComponent } from 'my-external-package/client'
```
which is a valid way to access MyFieldComponent that can be resolved by the consuming project.
### Custom Components from unknown locations
By default, any component paths from known locations are added to the import map. However, if you need to add any components from unknown locations to the import map, you can do so by adding them to the `admin.dependencies` array in your Payload Config. This is mostly only relevant for plugin authors and not for regular Payload users.
Example:
```ts
export default {
// ...
admin: {
// ...
dependencies: {
myTestComponent: { // myTestComponent is the key - can be anything
This way, `TestComponent` is added to the import map, no matter if it's referenced in a known location or not. On the client, you can then use the component like this:
```tsx
'use client'
import { RenderComponent, useConfig } from '@payloadcms/ui'
To make it easier to [build your Custom Components](#building-custom-components), you can use [Payload's built-in React Hooks](./hooks) in any Client Component. For example, you might want to interact with one of Payload's many React Contexts:

#### TypeScript
When building Custom Field Components, you can import the component type to ensure type safety. There is an explicit type for the Field Component, one for every [Field Type](../fields/overview) and for every client/server environment. The convention is to prepend the field type onto the target type, i.e. `TextFieldClientComponent`:
```tsx
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each Field Type
} from 'payload'
```
### The `field` Prop
All Field Components are passed their own Field Config through a common `field` prop. Within Server Components, this is the original Field Config as written within your Payload Config. Within Client Components, however, this is a "Client Config", which is a sanitized, client-friendly version of the Field Config. This is because the original Field Config is [non-serializable](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/use-client#serializable-types), meaning it cannot be passed into Client Components without first being transformed.
The Client Field Config is an exact copy of the original Field Config, minus all non-serializable properties, plus all evaluated functions such as field labels, [Custom Components](../components), etc.
Server Component:
```tsx
import React from 'react'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
| **`_isPresentational`** | A boolean indicating that the field is purely visual and does not directly affect data or change data shape, i.e. the [UI Field](../fields/ui). |
| **`_path`** | A string representing the direct, dynamic path to the field at runtime, i.e. `myGroup.myArray[0].myField`. |
| **`_schemaPath`** | A string representing the direct, static path to the [Field Config](../fields/overview), i.e. `myGroup.myArray.myField` |
<Banner type="info">
<strong>Note:</strong>
These properties are underscored to denote that they are not part of the original Field Config, and instead are attached during client sanitization to make fields easier to work with on the front-end.

All [Custom Field Components](./fields#the-field-component) are rendered on the server, and as such, only have access to static props at render time.

[Custom Field Components](./fields#the-field-component) can be rendered on the server. When using a server component as a custom field component, you can access dynamic props from within any client component rendered by your custom server component. This is done using the `useFieldProps` hook. This is important because some fields can be dynamic, such as when nested in an [`array`](../fields/array) or [`blocks`](../fields/block) field. For example, items can be added, re-ordered, or deleted on-the-fly.
For this reason, dynamic props like `path` are managed in their own React context, which can be accessed using the `useFieldProps` hook:
You can use the `useFieldProps` hooks to access dynamic props like `path`:
Every page within the Admin Panel automatically receives dynamic, auto-generated metadata derived from live document data, the user's current locale, and more, without any additional configuration. This includes the page title, description, og:image and everything in between. Metadata is fully configurable at the root level and cascades down to individual collections, documents, and custom views, allowing for the ability to control metadata on any page with high precision.
Within the Admin Panel, metadata can be customized at the following levels:
- [Root Metadata](#root-metadata)
- [Collection Metadata](#collection-metadata)
- [Global Metadata](#global-metadata)
- [View Metadata](#view-metadata)
All of these types of metadata share a similar structure, with a few key differences on the Root level. To customize metadata, consult the list of available scopes. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, then author your metadata within the Payload Config accordingly.
## Root Metadata
Root Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within the Admin Panel. This is where you can control things like the suffix appended onto each page's title, the favicon displayed in the browser's tab, and the Open Graph data that is used when sharing the Admin Panel on social media.
To customize Root Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Admin Panel',
description: 'The best admin panel in the world',
icons: [
{
rel: 'icon',
type: 'image/png',
href: '/favicon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Root Metadata:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`title`** | `string` | The title of the Admin Panel. |
| **`description`** | `string` | The description of the Admin Panel. |
| **`defaultOGImageType`** | `dynamic` (default), `static`, or `off` | The type of default OG image to use. If set to `dynamic`, Payload will use Next.js image generation to create an image with the title of the page. If set to `static`, Payload will use the `defaultOGImage` URL. If set to `off`, Payload will not generate an OG image. |
| **`icons`** | `IconConfig[]` | An array of icon objects. [More details](#icons) |
| **`keywords`** | `string` | A comma-separated list of keywords to include in the metadata of the Admin Panel. |
| **`openGraph`** | `OpenGraphConfig` | An object containing Open Graph metadata. [More details](#open-graph) |
| **`titleSuffix`** | `string` | A suffix to append to the end of the title of every page. Defaults to "- Payload". |
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Reminder:</strong>
These are the _root-level_ options for the Admin Panel. You can also customize [Collection Metadata](./collections), [Global Metadata](./globals), and [Document Metadata](./documents) in their respective configs.
</Banner>
### Icons
The Icons Config corresponds to the `<link>` tags that are used to specify icons for the Admin Panel. The `icons` key is an array of objects, each of which represents an individual icon. Icons are differentiated from one another by their `rel` attribute, which specifies the relationship between the document and the icon.
The most common icon type is the favicon, which is displayed in the browser tab. This is specified by the `rel` attribute `icon`. Other common icon types include `apple-touch-icon`, which is used by Apple devices when the Admin Panel is saved to the home screen, and `mask-icon`, which is used by Safari to mask the Admin Panel icon.
To customize icons, use the `icons` key within the `admin.meta` object in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
icons: [
// highlight-end
{
rel: 'icon',
type: 'image/png',
href: '/favicon.png',
},
{
rel: 'apple-touch-icon',
type: 'image/png',
href: '/apple-touch-icon.png',
},
],
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Icons:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`rel`** | `string` | The HTML `rel` attribute of the icon. |
| **`type`** | `string` | The MIME type of the icon. |
| **`color`** | `string` | The color of the icon. |
| **`fetchPriority`** | `string` | The [fetch priority](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageElement/fetchPriority) of the icon. |
| **`media`** | `string` | The [media query](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_media_queries/Using_media_queries) of the icon. |
| **`sizes`** | `string` | The [sizes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageElement/sizes) of the icon. |
| **`url`** | `string` | The URL pointing the resource of the icon. |
### Open Graph
Open Graph metadata is a set of tags that are used to control how URLs are displayed when shared on social media platforms. Open Graph metadata is automatically generated by Payload, but can be customized at the Root level.
To customize Open Graph metadata, use the `openGraph` key within the `admin.meta` object in your Payload Config:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
meta: {
// highlight-start
openGraph: {
// highlight-end
description: 'The best admin panel in the world',
images: [
{
url: 'https://example.com/image.jpg',
width: 800,
height: 600,
},
],
siteName: 'Payload',
title: 'My Admin Panel',
},
},
},
}
```
The following options are available for Open Graph Metadata:
| Key | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **`description`** | `string` | The description of the Admin Panel. |
| **`images`** | `OGImageConfig | OGImageConfig[]` | An array of image objects. |
| **`siteName`** | `string` | The name of the site. |
| **`title`** | `string` | The title of the Admin Panel. |
## Collection Metadata
Collection Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within any given Collection within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of all views within any given Collection, unless overridden by the view itself.
To customize Collection Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key within your Collection Config:
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Collection',
description: 'The best collection in the world',
},
},
}
```
The Collection Meta config has the same options as the [Root Metadata](#root-metadata) config.
## Global Metadata
Global Metadata is the metadata that is applied to all pages within any given Global within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of all views within any given Global, unless overridden by the view itself.
To customize Global Metadata, use the `admin.meta` key within your Global Config:
```ts
import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload'
export const MyGlobal: GlobalConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
// highlight-start
meta: {
// highlight-end
title: 'My Global',
description: 'The best
},
},
}
```
The Global Meta config has the same options as the [Root Metadata](#root-metadata) config.
## View Metadata
View Metadata is the metadata that is applied to specific [Views](./views) within the Admin Panel. This metadata is used to customize the title and description of a specific view, overriding any metadata set at the [Root](#root-metadata), [Collection](#collection-metadata), or [Global](#global-metadata) level.
To customize View Metadata, use the `meta` key within your View Config:

_For details on how to build Custom Views, see [Building Custom Views](#building-custom-views)._
Your Custom Root Views can optionally use one of the templates that Payload provides. The most common of these is the Default Template which provides the basic layout and navigation. Here is an example of what that might look like:
```tsx
import type { AdminViewProps } from 'payload'
import { DefaultTemplate } from '@payloadcms/next/templates'
| **`Component`** \* | Pass in the component that should be rendered when a user navigates to this route. |
| **`Component`** \* | Pass in the component path that should be rendered when a user navigates to this route. |
| **`path`** \* | Any valid URL path or array of paths that [`path-to-regexp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/path-to-regex) understands. |
| **`exact`** | Boolean. When true, will only match if the path matches the `usePathname()` exactly. |
| **`strict`** | When true, a path that has a trailing slash will only match a `location.pathname` with a trailing slash. This has no effect when there are additional URL segments in the pathname. |
| **`sensitive`** | When true, will match if the path is case sensitive. |

## Server vs. Client
The Payload Config only lives on the server and is not allowed to contain any client-side code. That way, you can load up the Payload Config in any server environment or standalone script, without having to use Bundlers or Node.js loaders to handle importing client-only modules (e.g. scss files or React Components) without any errors.
Behind the curtains, the Next.js-based Admin Panel generates a ClientConfig, which strips away any server-only code and enriches the config with React Components.
## Compatibility flags
The Payload Config can accept compatibility flags for running the newest versions but with older databases. You should only use these flags if you need to, and should confirm that you need to prior to enabling these flags.
`allowLocalizedWithinLocalized`
Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary. There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field onward would be localized.
By default, Payload will remove the `localized: true` property from sub-fields if a parent field is localized. Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.

This will require that your build pipeline can connect to your database, and it will simply run the `payload migrate` command prior to starting the build process. By calling `payload migrate`, Payload will automatically execute any migrations in your `/migrations` folder that have not yet been executed against your production database, in the order that they were created.
If it fails, the deployment will be rejected. But now, with your build script set up to run your migrations, you will be all set! Next time you deploy, your CI will execute the required migrations for you, and your database will be caught up with the shape that your Payload Config requires.
## Running migrations in production
In certain cases, you might want to run migrations at runtime when the server starts. Running them during build time may be impossible due to not having access to your database connection while building or similar reasoning.
If you're using a long-running server or container where your Node server starts up one time and then stays initialized, you might prefer to run migrations on server startup instead of within your CI.
In order to run migrations at runtime, on initialization, you can pass your migrations to your database adapter under the `prodMigrations` key as follows:
```ts
// Import your migrations from the `index.ts` file
// that Payload generates for you
import { migrations } from './migrations'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
// your config here
db: postgresAdapter({
// your adapter config here
prodMigrations: migrations
})
})
```
Passing your migrations as shown above will tell Payload, in production only, to execute any migrations that need to be run prior to completing the initialization of Payload. This is ideal for long-running services where Payload will only be initialized at startup.

## Importing the Payload Config outside of Next.js
Your Payload Config likely has imports which need to be handled properly, such as CSS imports and similar. If you were to try and import your config without any Node support for SCSS / CSS files, you'll see errors that arise accordingly.
Payload provides a convenient way to run standalone scripts, which can be useful for tasks like seeding your database or performing one-off operations.
This is especially relevant if you are importing your Payload Config outside of a bundler context, such as in standalone Node scripts.
For these cases, you can use Payload's `importConfig` function to handle importing your config safely. It will handle everything you need to be able to load and use your Payload Config, without any client-side files present.
Here's an example of a seed script that creates a few documents for local development / testing purposes, using Payload's `importConfig` function to safely import Payload, and the `getPayload` function to retrieve an initialized copy of Payload.
In standalone scripts, can simply import the Payload Config and use it right away. If you need an initialized copy of Payload, you can then use the `getPayload` function. This can be useful for tasks like seeding your database or performing other one-off operations.
```ts
// We are importing `getPayload` because we don't need HMR
// for a standalone script. For usage of Payload inside Next.js,
// you should always use `import { getPayloadHMR } from '@payloadcms/next/utilities'` instead.
import { getPayload } from 'payload'
// This is a helper function that will make sure we can safely load the Payload Config
// and all of its client-side files, such as CSS, SCSS, etc.

// like this. We'll use this with `dotenv` to load our `.env` file, if necessary.

```
You can then execute the script using `payload run`. Example: if you placed this standalone script in `src/seed.ts`, you would execute it like this:
```sh
payload run src/seed.ts
```
The `payload run` command does two things for you:
1. It loads the environment variables the same way Next.js loads them, eliminating the need for additional dependencies like `dotenv`. The usage of `dotenv` is not recommended, as Next.js loads environment variables differently. By using `payload run`, you ensure consistent environment variable handling across your Payload and Next.js setup.
2. It initializes tsx, allowing direct execution of TypeScript files manually installing tools like tsx or ts-node.
### Troubleshooting
If you encounter import-related errors, you have 2 options:
#### Option 1: enable swc mode by appending `--use-swc` to the `payload` command:
Example:
```sh
payload run src/seed.ts --use-swc
```
Note: Install @swc-node/register in your project first. While swc mode is faster than the default tsx mode, it might break for some imports.
#### Option 2: use an alternative runtime like bun
While we do not guarantee support for alternative runtimes, you are free to use them and disable payloads own transpilation by appending the `--disable-transpilation` flag to the `payload` command:
```sh

You will need to have bun installed on your system for this to work.

// If you wanted to add to the onInit:

// Finally, return the modified config

1. First, you need to receive the existing Payload Config along with any plugin options.
2. Then set the variable `config` to be equal to a copy of the existing config.
3. From here, you can extend the config however you like!
4. Finally, return the config and you're all set.
To reiterate, the essence of a [Payload Plugin](./overview) is simply to extend the [Payload Config](../configuration/overview) - and that is exactly what we are doing in this file.
## Spread Syntax
### Spread syntax
[Spread syntax](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Spread_syntax) (or the spread operator) is a feature in JavaScript that uses the dot notation **(...)** to spread elements from arrays, strings, or objects into various contexts.

First, you need to spread the `config.collections` to ensure that we don't lose the existing collections. Then you can add any additional collections, just as you would in a regular Payload Config.
This same logic is applied to other properties like admin, globals, hooks:

Some properties will be slightly different to extend, for instance the `onInit` property:
### Extending functions
Function properties cannot use spread syntax. The way to extend them is to execute the existing function if it exists and then run your additional functionality.
Here is an example extending the `onInit` property:
If you wish to add to the `onInit`, you must include the async/await. We don't use spread syntax in this case, instead you must await the existing `onInit` before running additional functionality.
In the template, we have stubbed out a basic `onInitExtension` file that you can use, if not needed feel free to delete it.
## Types
If your plugin has options, you should define and provide types for these options in a separate file which gets exported from the main `index.ts`.
// modify the emails in any way before they are sent
return emails.map((email) => ({
...email,
html: email.html, // transform the html in any way you'd like (maybe wrap it in an html template?)
}))
}
```
### `formOverrides`
Override anything on the `forms` collection by sending a [Payload Collection Config](https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/collections) to the `formOverrides` property.
| `collections` | `string[]` | An array of collection slugs to populate in the `to` field of each redirect. |
| `overrides` | `object` | A partial collection config that allows you to override anything on the `redirects` collection. |
| `redirectTypes` | `string[]` | Provide an array of redirects if you want to provide options for the type of redirects to be supported. |
| `redirectTypeFieldOverride` | `Field` | A partial Field config that allows you to override the Redirect Type field if enabled above. |
Note that the fields in overrides take a function that receives the default fields and returns an array of fields. This allows you to add fields to the collection.
| **`adminThumbnail`** | Set the way that the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview) will display thumbnails for this Collection. [More](#admin-thumbnails) |
| **`bulkUpload`** | Allow users to upload in bulk from the list view, default is true |
| **`crop`** | Set to `false` to disable the cropping tool in the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). Crop is enabled by default. [More](#crop-and-focal-point-selector) |
| **`disableLocalStorage`** | Completely disable uploading files to disk locally. [More](#disabling-local-upload-storage) |
| **`displayPreview`** | Enable displaying preview of the uploaded file in Upload fields related to this Collection. Can be locally overridden by `displayPreview` option in Upload field. [More](/docs/fields/upload#config-options). |
| **`externalFileHeaderFilter`** | Accepts existing headers and returns the headers after filtering or modifying. |
| **`filesRequiredOnCreate`** | Mandate file data on creation, default is true. |
| **`filenameCompoundIndex`** | Field slugs to use for a compount index instead of the default filename index.
| **`focalPoint`** | Set to `false` to disable the focal point selection tool in the [Admin Panel](../admin/overview). The focal point selector is only available when `imageSizes` or `resizeOptions` are defined. [More](#crop-and-focal-point-selector) |
| **`formatOptions`** | An object with `format` and `options` that are used with the Sharp image library to format the upload file. [More](https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/api-output#toformat) |
| **`handlers`** | Array of Request handlers to execute when fetching a file, if a handler returns a Response it will be sent to the client. Otherwise Payload will retrieve and send back the file. |

#### Custom file name per size
Each image size supports a `generateImageName` function that can be used to generate a custom file name for the resized image.
This function receives the original file name, the resize name, the extension, height and width as arguments.
