Hono Adapter

Hono is a high-performance web framework built on top of Fetch API. For additional context, refer to the HTTP Adapter guide.

Basic

import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { RPCHandler } from '@orpc/server/fetch'

const app = new Hono()

const handler = new RPCHandler(router)

app.use('/rpc/*', async (c, next) => {
  const { matched, response } = await handler.handle(c.req.raw, {
    prefix: '/rpc',
    context: {} // Provide initial context if needed
  })

  if (matched) {
    return c.newResponse(response.body, response)
  }

  await next()
})

export default app

Body Already Used Error?

If Hono middleware reads the request body before the oRPC handler processes it, an error will occur. You can solve this by using a proxy to intercept the request body parsers with Hono parsers.

const BODY_PARSER_METHODS = new Set(['arrayBuffer', 'blob', 'formData', 'json', 'text'] as const)

type BodyParserMethod = typeof BODY_PARSER_METHODS extends Set<infer T> ? T : never

app.use('/rpc/*', async (c, next) => {
  const request = new Proxy(c.req.raw, {
    get(target, prop) {
      if (BODY_PARSER_METHODS.has(prop as BodyParserMethod)) {
        return () => c.req[prop as BodyParserMethod]()
      }
      return Reflect.get(target, prop, target)
    }
  })

  const { matched, response } = await handler.handle(request, {
    prefix: '/rpc',
    context: {} // Provide initial context if needed
  })

  if (matched) {
    return c.newResponse(response.body, response)
  }

  await next()
})

INFO

The handler can be any supported oRPC handler, such as RPCHandler, OpenAPIHandler, or another custom handler.
