Selective ERROR [nuxt] [request error] [unhandled] [500] Invalid query error.

Environment

WSL Ubuntu 24.04
Node version v23.6.1

[email protected]
@nuxt/[email protected]

Version

3.15.4

Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-kvpjf65n?file=app%2Fcomponents%2Fcontent%2Fblog-posts.vue

The routes where the problem component is displayed:

/
/blog

Description

This behavior happens when I am using queryCollection composable to query markdown content list with ordering.

• The component was functioning correctly until I added it to one more .md file, app/content/index.md. Originally I only had it in app/content/blog/index.md
• Upon adding ::blog-posts to the app/content/index.md file, the component started exhibiting the following behavior:
  • When I navigate to the pages through <NuxtLink> buttons (by clicking My name, Main or Blog in the top bar), , the component works as expected.
  • However, when I refresh the page while on that route or go directly to that route, the query fails and the terminal prints:
    ERROR [nuxt] [request error] [unhandled] [500] Invalid query
  • When I remove, the .order('publishedAt', 'DESC') line from the query chain inside blog-posts.vue this symptom goes away, the above error no longer occurring upon refreshing or directly visiting the problem routes by typing in the url. The list of posts display as intended as well.

(When I remove the highlighted line, the query succeeds again, regardless of method used to load the pages)

Thanks for providing reproduction @danielju91
Seems that there is an issue with query security validator, which does not allow upper-case letters in order. Could you try by renaming publishedAt to published_at or anything with lowercase characters?
This will be workaround for the issue. I release a patch in next days

I have the same issue with a simple .all() query while trying to migrate to 3.0.1

content sits in /content/game/

And as it did not work without the nuxt.content.ts at all, I've dropped in

import { defineContentConfig, defineCollection } from "@nuxt/content";

export default defineContentConfig({
  collections: {
    game: defineCollection({
      source: "game/*.md",
      type: "page"
    })
  }
});

This is a sample markdown:

---
id: 4suZqQlptKsxR6bm0UHzgHq
title: Some title
slug: ssome-slig
link: https://www......
date: 2025-01-05T19:07:00.000Z
description: Some
  multi
  line
  description
cover: /images/uploads/6sxf1tlkudiz6l.jpg
facts:
  - name: Fact 1
    value: "62"
  - name: Category
    value: Some Category
  - name: Rating
    value: 4.5/5
images:
  - image: /images/uploads/a.jpg
  - image: /images/uploads/b.jpg
  - image: /images/uploads/c.jpg
---

(also tried content/game/*.md) just in case

Nothing works and I only get the query error out of it.

The migration docs read as if the transition would be seamless except having to adjust the query syntax, but it seems there is something else

@farnabaz Thank you for the workaround solution. I confirm that changing publishedAt to published_at does get rid of the bug.

I should add that this means having to change the publishedAt in the schema (inside content.config.ts) and inside the .select method in addition to inside the .order method. Only changing the publishedAt inside the .order to published_at will return error:
ERROR [nuxt] [request error] [unhandled] [500] no such column: "published_at" - should this be a string literal in single-quotes?

@mklueh I'm not sure why you facing this error. Could you provide a reproduction?

I just checked with your explanation in Stackblitz and seems fine, Check out https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-mxtmkhbd?file=content.config.ts,content%2Fgame%2Ffirst.md,app%2Fpages%2Findex.vue
