Elysia Adapter

The Elysia adapter connects QUESTPIE to the Elysia framework, optimized for Bun.

Install

bun add @questpie/elysia elysia

Server Setup

Mount QUESTPIE as a catch-all route handler:

src/index.ts

import { Elysia } from "elysia";
import { questpieElysia } from "@questpie/elysia/server";
import { app } from "#questpie";

const server = new Elysia()
	.use(questpieElysia(app, { basePath: "/api" }))
	.listen(3000);

console.log(`Running at ${server.server?.url}`);

This mounts all QUESTPIE routes under /api/:

Collections: GET /api/collections/:name, POST /api/collections/:name, etc.
Globals: GET /api/globals/:name, PUT /api/globals/:name
Auth: POST /api/auth/*
Custom routes: GET|POST /api/:routeName

Client Setup

Create a typed client for frontend use:

src/lib/client.ts

import { createClientFromEden } from "@questpie/elysia/client";
import type { App, AppConfig } from "#questpie";

export const client = createClientFromEden<App, AppConfig>({
	server: "localhost:3000",
	basePath: "/api",
});

The client is fully typed — autocompletion for collections, fields, query operators, and custom routes.

Type Inference

The Elysia adapter provides end-to-end type safety:

// Typed collection queries
const posts = await client.collections.posts.find({
	where: { status: { equals: "published" } },
	orderBy: { createdAt: "desc" },
	limit: 10,
});

// Typed custom routes
const stats = await client.routes.getDashboardStats.call({});

CORS

Configure CORS using Elysia's built-in plugin:

import { cors } from "@elysiajs/cors";

const server = new Elysia()
	.use(cors({ origin: "http://localhost:5173" }))
	.all("/api/*", ({ request }) => handler(request))
	.listen(3000);
