# tRPC -- Classic React Query Migration

For tRPC apps still on the old React Query package

## What this does

You are upgrading a tRPC app whose data layer sits on the older React Query package, and the newer one expects code written differently. Part of the rewrite can be done automatically, and the rest takes deliberate edits. Reach for this when that upgrade is on your list and you want the automated run and the manual follow-up covered together.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Run the automated upgrade on my codebase
- Move my hook-based calls to options-factory
- Replace utils.invalidate with query client invalidation

## About tRPC -- Classic React Query Migration

This is for moving a tRPC project from @trpc/react-query, the classic package, to @trpc/tanstack-react-query. The first step is running npx @trpc/upgrade, a CLI that performs an automated codemod over the code.

The automated pass is not the whole job, because some patterns remain to migrate by hand: hook-based usage moves to the options-factory approach, utils.invalidate becomes queryClient.invalidateQueries with a queryFilter, and providers change. Both sides are covered here, the automated run first and the manual follow-up after.
