SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This guide helps teams maintain synchronized Prisma schemas across backend and frontend, preventing drift and deployment issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Schema synchronization guidance: ensures both backend and frontend prisma schemas stay identical.
  • Migration and generation workflow: provides steps to format, validate, generate, and push schemas consistently.
  • Use Case: When adding a new model, update both schema.prisma files, then run generate and db push to keep environments in sync.

Quick Start

Run a synchronized workflow after any schema change to ensure both sides stay aligned.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep Prisma schemas in sync across backend and frontend projects?

You need to update both schema.prisma files after any model change. Running a synchronized workflow of format, validate, generate, and db push across both projects ensures cross-project schema consistency and prevents deployment drift.

What is the workflow for adding a new model to a dual-schema Prisma setup?

The workflow involves updating both backend and frontend schema.prisma files with the new model. You then run format, validate, generate, and db push steps across both projects to maintain synchronized environments.

When do I need to run Prisma generate and db push for frontend and backend?

You need to run Prisma generate and db push for frontend and backend after any schema change, such as adding models, updating relations, or changing enum usage. This ensures both sides are validated and aligned consistently.

Does this dual-path Prisma generation work for relations and enums?

Yes, dual-path Prisma generation works for relations and enums. The synchronization workflow applies to development workflows requiring synchronized updates to models, relations, and enum usage across both backend and frontend schemas.

Why does my Prisma schema drift between frontend and backend projects?

Your Prisma schema drifts between frontend and backend projects when updates are applied inconsistently. You can prevent this drift by running an automated dual-schema management workflow that formats, validates, generates, and pushes schemas across both sides.
