  };
}

export function MyPdfTemplate({ data }: MyPdfProps) {
  return (
    <Document>
      <Page size="A4" style={pageStyles.page}>
        <PdfHeader title={data.title} />

        <View style={pageStyles.content}>
          <PdfSection title="Items">
            <PdfTable
              columns={[
                { header: 'Name', accessor: 'name', width: '70%' },
                { header: 'Value', accessor: 'value', width: '30%', align: 'right' },
              ]}
              data={data.items}

          </PdfSection>
        </View>

        <PdfFooter />
      </Page>
    </Document>
  );
}

Document Management Patterns

Basic Read-Only Document List

import { DocumentList, DocumentViewerDialog } from '@kit/documents/components';
import { useDocumentViewer } from '@kit/documents/hooks';
import type { DocumentWithUrl } from '@kit/documents/types';

interface Props {
  documents: DocumentWithUrl[];
}

export function DocumentGallery({ documents }: Props) {
  const viewer = useDocumentViewer(documents);

  return (
    <>
      <DocumentList
        documents={documents}
        onView={(doc) => viewer.open(doc)}
        onDownload={(doc) => window.open(doc.signedUrl)}
      />

      <DocumentViewerDialog
        documents={documents}
        currentIndex={viewer.currentIndex}
        isOpen={viewer.isOpen}
        onClose={viewer.close}
        onNavigate={viewer.navigate}
        zoom={viewer.zoom}
        onZoomChange={viewer.setZoom}
      />
    </>
  );
}

Editable Document List with CRUD

import { SortableDocumentList } from '@kit/documents/components';
import type { EditableDocumentWithUrl, DocumentUploadInput } from '@kit/documents/types';

interface Props {
  documents: EditableDocumentWithUrl[];
  documentTypes: Array<{ value: string; label: string }>;
  onUpload: (input: DocumentUploadInput) => Promise<void>;
  onEdit: (id: string, data: { title?: string; description?: string }) => Promise<void>;
  onDelete: (id: string) => Promise<void>;
  onReorder: (items: Array<{ id: string; displayOrder: number }>) => Promise<void>;
}

export function VenueDocumentsList({
  documents,
  documentTypes,
  onUpload,
  onEdit,
  onDelete,
  onReorder,
}: Props) {
  return (
    <SortableDocumentList
      documents={documents}
      documentTypes={documentTypes}
      onUpload={onUpload}
      onEdit={onEdit}
      onDelete={onDelete}
      onReorder={onReorder}
      emptyMessage="No documents uploaded yet"
    />
  );
}

Adapter Pattern (Database to Component Types)

When your database schema doesn't match

@kit/documents

// adapters/venue-document-adapter.ts
import type { EditableDocumentWithUrl, Document } from '@kit/documents/types';

interface VenueDocument {
  id: string;
  venue_id: string;
  title: string;
  document_type: string | null;
  storage_path: string;
  file_name: string;
  file_size: number;
  mime_type: string;
  display_order: number | null;
  created_at: string;
}

export function toEditableDocument(
  doc: VenueDocument,
  signedUrl: string,
  thumbnailUrl?: string,
): EditableDocumentWithUrl {
  return {
    id: doc.id,
    title: doc.title,
    fileName: doc.file_name,
    fileSize: doc.file_size,
    mimeType: doc.mime_type,
    storagePath: doc.storage_path,
    bucket: 'venue-documents',
    displayOrder: doc.display_order,
    documentType: doc.document_type ?? undefined,
    uploadedAt: doc.created_at,
    signedUrl,
    thumbnailUrl,
  };
}

PDF Generation Patterns

CRITICAL: Use API Routes for PDF generation, not Server Actions. See

api-patterns

Quick Reference

// 1. Fetch data with RLS-protected client
const data = await fetchData(client, id);

// 2. Sanitize for PDF (REQUIRED!)
import { sanitizeForPdf } from '@kit/pdf-core';
const safeData = sanitizeForPdf(data);

// 3. Render to stream
import { renderToStream } from '@react-pdf/renderer';
const stream = await renderToStream(<MyPdfTemplate data={safeData} />);

// 4. Return streaming response
import { nodeStreamToWebStream, getPdfResponseHeaders } from '@kit/pdf-core';
return new Response(nodeStreamToWebStream(stream), {
  headers: getPdfResponseHeaders('my-document.pdf'),
});

Existing PDF Routes

Unified Storage Library (@kit/shared/storage)

The unified storage library provides centralized utilities for storage URLs, path extraction, and thumbnail generation.

Exports

import {
  // URL Service
  StorageUrlService,
  createStorageUrlService,
  StorageBuckets,
  SignedUrlExpiry,
  type StorageBucket,
  type SignedUrlOptions,

  // Path Service
  StoragePathService,
  extractStoragePath,
  generatePublicThumbnailUrl,

  // Constants
  ThumbnailSizes,
  type ThumbnailSize,
} from '@kit/shared/storage';

Storage Buckets

// Account/Profile
StorageBuckets.ACCOUNT_IMAGE          // 'account_image'
StorageBuckets.PROFILE_MEDIA          // 'profile-media' (public)
StorageBuckets.DANCER_MEDIA           // 'dancer-media'

// Documents
StorageBuckets.VENUE_DOCUMENTS        // 'venue-documents'
StorageBuckets.PRODUCTION_DOCUMENTS   // 'production-documents'
StorageBuckets.LEGAL_DOCUMENTS        // 'legal-documents'
StorageBuckets.REIMBURSEMENT_DOCUMENTS // 'reimbursement-documents'

// Legal/Compliance
StorageBuckets.CONTRACTS              // 'contracts'
StorageBuckets.IDENTITY_DOCUMENTS     // 'identity-documents'
StorageBuckets.INVOICE_PDFS           // 'invoice-pdfs'

Signed URL Expiry Times

SignedUrlExpiry.IMMEDIATE_DISPLAY  // 3600 (1 hour) - UI display
SignedUrlExpiry.DOWNLOAD           // 86400 (24 hours) - download links
SignedUrlExpiry.PROFILE_PHOTO      // 604800 (7 days) - cached URLs
SignedUrlExpiry.ADMIN_REVIEW       // 86400 (24 hours) - admin views
SignedUrlExpiry.MAX                // 604800 (7 days max)
SignedUrlExpiry.MIN                // 60 (minimum)

StorageUrlService

import { StorageUrlService, StorageBuckets, SignedUrlExpiry } from '@kit/shared/storage';

const service = new StorageUrlService(client);

// Single signed URL
const result = await service.getSignedUrl(
  StorageBuckets.VENUE_DOCUMENTS,
  'venue-123/document.pdf',
  { expiresIn: SignedUrlExpiry.DOWNLOAD }
);

// Batch signed URLs (more efficient for multiple files)
const results = await service.getBatchSignedUrls(
  StorageBuckets.VENUE_DOCUMENTS,
  ['path1.pdf', 'path2.pdf'],
  { expiresIn: SignedUrlExpiry.IMMEDIATE_DISPLAY }
);

// Enrich items with signed URLs
const docsWithUrls = await service.enrichWithSignedUrls(
  StorageBuckets.VENUE_DOCUMENTS,
  documents,
  (doc) => doc.storage_path,
  (doc, url) => ({ ...doc, signedUrl: url }),
);

// With thumbnail transform
const result = await service.getSignedUrl(
  StorageBuckets.DANCER_MEDIA,
  'user-123/photo.jpg',
  {
    expiresIn: SignedUrlExpiry.IMMEDIATE_DISPLAY,
    transform: ThumbnailSizes.MEDIUM,
  }
);

StoragePathService (Path Extraction)

Extract storage paths from signed URLs, public URLs, or bucket-prefixed paths:

import { StoragePathService, extractStoragePath, StorageBuckets } from '@kit/shared/storage';

// Extract from signed URL
const path = extractStoragePath(
  'https://xxx.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/sign/identity-documents/user-123/doc.pdf?token=...',
  StorageBuckets.IDENTITY_DOCUMENTS
);
// Result: 'user-123/doc.pdf'

// Extract from bucket-prefixed path
const path2 = extractStoragePath('identity-documents/user-123/doc.pdf');
// Result: 'user-123/doc.pdf'

// Detect bucket from path
const bucket = StoragePathService.detectBucket(url);
// Result: 'identity-documents'

// Validate path
const result = StoragePathService.validate(storagePath);
if (result.isSuccess) {
  // Use validated path
}

Thumbnail Generation

import { ThumbnailSizes, generatePublicThumbnailUrl } from '@kit/shared/storage';

// Preset sizes
ThumbnailSizes.SMALL   // { width: 100, height: 100, quality: 80 }
ThumbnailSizes.MEDIUM  // { width: 200, height: 200, quality: 80 }
ThumbnailSizes.LARGE   // { width: 400, height: 400, quality: 85 }
ThumbnailSizes.XLARGE  // { width: 800, height: 800, quality: 90 }

// For signed URLs - use transform option
const result = await service.getSignedUrl(bucket, path, {
  transform: ThumbnailSizes.MEDIUM,
});

// For public URLs - use generatePublicThumbnailUrl
const thumbnailUrl = generatePublicThumbnailUrl(publicUrl, {
  width: 200,
  height: 200,
  quality: 80,
});

URL Storage Best Practice

CRITICAL: Always store raw storage paths in the database, never signed URLs (they expire).

// ✅ CORRECT - Store raw path
await client.from('documents').insert({
  storage_path: 'user-123/photo.jpg',  // Raw path only
});

// ❌ WRONG - Storing signed URL (will expire!)
await client.from('documents').insert({
  file_url: signedUrl,  // This will break after expiry!
});

// Generate signed URLs on-demand when displaying
const result = await service.getSignedUrl(bucket, doc.storage_path);

Anti-Patterns

// ❌ WRONG - Server Action for PDF generation
'use server';
import { renderToBuffer } from '@react-pdf/renderer';
export async function generatePdf(data) {
  return await renderToBuffer(<MyPdf data={data} />); // hasOwnProperty error!
}

// ✅ CORRECT - Use API Route (see api-patterns skill)

// ❌ WRONG - Raw Supabase data to PDF
const data = await client.from('table').select('*').single();
return <MyPdf data={data} />; // May fail with undefined/null

// ✅ CORRECT - Sanitize first
import { sanitizeForPdf } from '@kit/pdf-core';
const safeData = sanitizeForPdf(data);
return <MyPdf data={safeData} />;

// ❌ WRONG - Hardcoded bucket names
await client.storage.from('venue-documents').upload(...);

// ✅ CORRECT - Use constants
import { StorageBuckets } from '@kit/shared/storage';
await client.storage.from(StorageBuckets.VENUE_DOCUMENTS).upload(...);
