# PocketBase Server-Side JavaScript (pb_hooks)

## Runtime Basics

- Files go in `pb_hooks/*.pb.js` (must end with `.pb.js`)
- Engine: **goja** — ES5.1 + some ES6. **No ES6 modules** (`import`/`export`), **no async/await**, **no arrow functions in older versions**. Use `function(){}` and CommonJS `require()`.
- Each file is loaded on app start and on hot-reload
- `__hooks` — absolute path to the pb_hooks directory
- TypeScript declarations: `pb_data/types.d.ts` (auto-generated, useful for IDE support)
- `--hooksPool=25` flag controls concurrent JS goroutines (default: 25)
- Each handler runs in an isolated context — no shared mutable state between requests
