Does anybody know how to define a relation directive to self? I’m using prisma 1 because of the mongo support and I have it defined as @relation(name: “UserToUser”, onDelete: SET_NULL). I also have trying to do a many to many relation with the directive @relation(name: “UserToPost”, onDelete: SET_NULL) on both of the object types

am I doing that right?

also what if you want a relation between an embedded type and a regular type?

or alternatively can someone point be to a good prisma relations tutoriaL? Ican’t find one

I have figured out the relations fiasco…I hope. Now I’m getting an error when using embedded types

the error is

▸  ‘;’ expected. (138:8)  ▸    136 | export type CommentsOrderByInput  ▸  =   ▸    137 |   ▸  > 138 | export type  ▸  CommentOrderByInput =  ‘comment_ASC’  ▸  |  ▸      |     ^  ▸    139 |  ‘comment_DESC’  ▸    140 |   ▸    141 | export type SquadOrderByInput  ▸  =  ‘id_ASC’ |

Where Comments is an embedded type

I think it’s because I’m doing it like this

type Comments @embedded { comments: [Comment]! } type Comment @embedded { createdBy: User! @relation(name: “CommentRelation”, link: INLINE, onDelete: SET_NULL) comment: String! }

and Comments is embedded in another object

but is there another way I can embed an array into an object?

prisma generate does not seem to work with embedded types

type Meta {

id: ID! @id @unique

firstName: String

user: User @relation(name: "UserToMeta")

}

type User {

id: ID! @id @unique

username: String!

meta: Meta @relation(link: INLINE,name: "UserToMeta", onDelete: CASCADE)

}

delete cascade doesn't work

i want to delete the meta record when delete the user

Same here

I think it’s just for mongodDB though

First time trying out prisma and trying out the @map syntax from the setup guide. However, 1. vscode shows error

this line is invalid

2. npx prisma generate also errors

model brand {
11 |   created_at       DateTime           @default(now()) @map('createdAt')
   | 
error: Error validating: This line is invalid. It does not start with any known Prisma schema keyword.

anyone know if I need to do something special for @map to be accepted?

Another question: What is the conventional thought here in regards to future changes to the schema? Is it to run introspect again? Or use Migration moving forward? I am seeing that introspect will override any changes I've made to the schema.

also any place to find documentation or examples of many to many relational queries?

trying to run something like

onst users = await prisma.user.findMany({
      where: {
        missions: {
          equals: missionId
        }
      }
    })
    console.log('users', users)
    return users

where missions is a many to many schema definition

however, i'm receiving a type error of

The expected type comes from property 'missions' which is declared here on type 'userWhereInput'

Seems this where clause is only suitable for one to many relations

is there any way right now to implement prisma to graphql api ??

Pretty new to prisma, just confused with my app having prisma and requires prisma.yml file to deploy, however prisma.io says that yml file now merged into *.prisma file

witch part am i wrong about ?

Is there any guidance to running

npx ts-node --transpile-only src/schema

within a Docker container? The command doesn’t error for me, but the types are not generated

Hi all! Anyone else had trouble getting GraphQL Playground to show up on

localhost:4000

when trying to run the simplest hello-world example? 😅 Server announces the fact that its running on the following web address but than there's nothing actually there

Is there a built in method of preventing empty strings for required fields. For instance, if I require a user provide a name, "" (empty string) should not be a valid submission. How can I make NULL and "" return the same error? I've got a lot of forms that have this use case, so writing a bunch of custom error handlers would be a real pain. Seems like there should be a way to do this automatically.
