SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Upgrading from Prisma ORM v6 to v7 introduces breaking changes around the new prisma-client generator, required driver adapters, prisma.config.ts, explicit environment loading, and new generated client entrypoints, and this Skill guides the full migration. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Schema and Generator Migration: Switch from prisma-client-js to the prisma-client generator with required output paths and updated import entrypoints. - Driver Adapter Setup: Install and configure adapters for PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server, Neon, PlanetScale, Turso, and D1, including pool and SSL settings. - Config and Environment Migration: Create prisma.config.ts, load .env files explicitly with dotenv, and replace removed features like $use middleware, metrics, and Prisma.validator. - Use Case: A team upgrading a PostgreSQL Node.js app to Prisma 7 follows the step-by-step guide to update the schema, install @prisma/adapter-pg, create prisma.config.ts, and fix client imports. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to upgrade your project from Prisma 6 to Prisma 7 and fix any resulting errors.

Frequently Asked Questions about prisma-upgrade-v7

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I upgrade Prisma from v6 to v7?▼

Update @prisma/client and prisma to version 7, switch the generator provider to prisma-client with an explicit output path, create prisma.config.ts, install a driver adapter for your SQL database, update client imports, and run prisma generate.

What driver adapter should I use with Prisma 7?▼

Prisma 7 requires driver adapters for SQL providers: @prisma/adapter-pg for PostgreSQL, @prisma/adapter-mariadb for MySQL, @prisma/adapter-better-sqlite3 for SQLite, plus adapters for Neon, PlanetScale, Turso, D1, and SQL Server.

Does Prisma 7 support MongoDB?▼

No, Prisma 7 has no MongoDB connector and no published MongoDB adapter package. MongoDB projects should stay on the latest Prisma 6.x release or migrate to Prisma Next instead of following the v7 SQL migration path.

Why does Prisma 7 not load my .env file automatically?▼

Prisma v7 removed automatic environment variable loading, so you must install dotenv and add import 'dotenv/config' as the first line of prisma.config.ts. Bun users are exempt because Bun loads .env files automatically.

How do I replace Prisma.validator in Prisma 7?▼

The prisma-client generator no longer exposes Prisma.validator, so use TypeScript's satisfies operator instead, for example defining a select object with satisfies Prisma.UserSelect imported from the generated client entrypoint.

Can I use Prisma Accelerate with driver adapters in v7?▼

No, driver adapters expect direct database connection strings and fail with prisma:// or prisma+postgres:// URLs. Instead pass the Accelerate URL via accelerateUrl on PrismaClient and apply the withAccelerate extension.
