You can test v3 tasks from inside the app in this project. It's designed to be used for testing features and functionality of the v3 SDK.

1. Create a v3 project in the UI of the webapp, you should now be able to select it from the dropdown.

2. In Postgres go to the "Projects" table and for the project you create change the externalRef to yubjwjsfkxnylobaqvqz.

This is so the trigger.config.ts file inside the hello-world doesn't keep getting changed by people accidentally pushing this.

1. Make sure you're running the main webapp

pnpm run dev --filter webapp

2. Build the v3 CLI (this needs to be done everytime a code changes is made to the CLI if you're working on it)

pnpm run build --filter trigger.dev

3. CD into the hello-world directory

cd references/hello-world

4. If you've never logged in to the CLI you'll see an error telling you to login. Do this:

pnpm exec trigger login -a http://localhost:3030

If this fails because you already are logged in you can create a new profile:

pnpm exec trigger login -a http://localhost:3030 --profile local

Note: if you use a profile then you'll need to append --profile local to all commands, like dev.

5. Run the v3 CLI

pnpm exec trigger dev

6. You should see the v3 dev command spitting out messages, including that it's started a background worker.

7. Go to the webapp now and inside your project you should see some tasks on the "Tasks" page.

8. Go to the "Test" page in the sidebar and select a task. Then enter a payload and click "Run test". You can tell what the payloads should be by looking at the relevant task file inside the /references/hello-world/src/trigger folder. Many of them accept an empty payload.
