SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents common Prisma pitfalls such as inefficient queries, N+1 problems, improper client instantiation, fragile transactions, and unhandled Prisma error codes by providing clear patterns and guardrails for database access.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Query and Selection Patterns: Guidelines for findUnique, findMany, select vs include, and complex filtering to limit returned fields and avoid excessive joins.
  • Repository Abstractions: Templates and justification for using repositories to encapsulate complex queries, enable testing, and keep services thin.
  • Transaction and Error Handling: Patterns for $transaction usage, interactive transactions, and mapping Prisma error codes (P2002, P2003, P2025) into application errors.
  • Optimization and Types: Advice on preventing N+1 by using include or batch queries, TypeScript typing with Prisma GetPayload, and upsert/aggregate patterns for analytics.

Quick Start

Use the prisma skill to implement a repository method that fetches active users with their profiles, uses select to limit fields, wraps changes in a transaction, and maps Prisma error codes to application errors.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent N+1 query problems in Prisma ORM?

To prevent N+1 query problems in Prisma ORM, use the include keyword or batch queries to fetch related data efficiently in a single round-trip rather than issuing separate queries per record. This skill provides patterns for structuring include operations to optimize relational data loading.

What is the best way to handle Prisma error codes like P2002 and P2025 in TypeScript?

Handling Prisma error codes like P2002 and P2025 requires mapping these database constraints to application-specific errors within your repository layer. This skill provides patterns for intercepting Prisma error codes and translating unique constraint violations or record-not-found errors into safe application exceptions.

How do I structure a repository layer with Prisma Client in Node.js?

Structuring a repository layer with Prisma Client involves encapsulating complex queries within dedicated repository classes to keep your services thin and enable testing. This skill provides templates for using a central PrismaService instance to standardize database access across your Node.js backend.

When should I use select vs include for query optimization in Prisma?

Use select versus include for query optimization in Prisma when you need to limit returned fields and prevent fetching unnecessary relational data. This skill provides guidelines for applying select to shape payload types and include to manage relations, ensuring queries avoid excessive joins.

Does Prisma $transaction support interactive transactions for multi-step database operations?

Yes, Prisma $transaction supports interactive transactions for multi-step database operations requiring atomic execution. This skill provides patterns for implementing transaction semantics, ensuring safe query execution and rollback handling when wrapping multiple database changes within a single transaction block.

How do I type Prisma query results with GetPayload in TypeScript?

To type Prisma query results with GetPayload in TypeScript, extract the return type payload generated by your specific select or include operations. This skill provides advice on using GetPayload typing alongside upsert and aggregate patterns to ensure strict type safety for analytics queries and repository method returns.
