Prisma Driver

The Prisma driver is the default and most supported driver for Nevr. It leverages the power of Prisma ORM to handle database migrations, type safety, and query execution.

Setup

To use the Prisma driver, you need to install the necessary packages:

npm install @prisma/client prisma

Configuration

Initialize the driver and pass it to the nevr function.

import { nevr } from "nevr"
import { prisma } from "nevr/drivers/prisma"
import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"

const db = new PrismaClient()

const api = nevr({
  // ...
  driver: prisma(db)
})

Schema Generation

When you run the Nevr generator, it automatically creates a schema.prisma file based on your entities.

# Run the generator script
npx tsx src/generate.ts

The generated schema will be located at ./prisma/schema.prisma (or wherever you configured outDir).

Database Migration

Once the schema is generated, you use standard Prisma commands to update your database.

# For prototyping (SQLite/Dev)
npx prisma db push --schema=prisma/schema.prisma

# For production (Migrations)
npx prisma migrate dev --schema=prisma/schema.prisma

Accessing Prisma Client

You can access the underlying Prisma Client instance if you need to perform raw queries or complex operations not yet supported by Nevr's high-level API.

// In your custom code
await db.user.findMany({
  where: {
    // ...
  }
})
