Hello prisma people 🙂 I am just getting started with Prisma and I would like to thank all the people that got involved into getting this wonderful project out there!!! You rock! Since I am just getting started I have 2-3 trivial questions (if this is the wrong place please point me to the right direction, thank you) 1. Can I have the prisma server connect to a MongoDB for e.g. without using a docker image? 2. Can I create using the same model definitions (etc) 2 implementations? One that will expose a REST api and one a GraphQL for Apollo Client ? 3. Is there a way to integrate auth. at the user level out of the box ? I hope this is are not to stupid questions. Thank you

Welcome 🙂 1) I don't really understand the question. Do you want Mongo do be not in a Docker image, or Prisma, or...? 2) I this is probably possible with a server like GraphQL Yoga or Apollo interfacing with Prisma, but not with Prisma directly. 3) I assume you refer to Prisma having user auth? It doesn't, that is also handled by a fontend server.

Thank you 1. I think I got my answer from the node/rest example where it has makePrismaClientClass, basically that's what I need because my data layer it's going to be a managed MongoDB hosted by MongoDb themselves 2. I thought so, but I wanted to ask. Because I would like to create one entry point for my app that it's going to use Apollo Client and the REST for 3rd party integrations.

Regarding 2), I think there are resources that showcase how you can expose a GraphQL API and a REST API side by side with Yoga. IIRC it's fairly easy

wow, that would be awesome, could you please share some of this resources if that's not to much to ask

The most recent stuff a colleague pointed me towards is basically this: https://www.prisma.io/docs/get-started/03-build-graphql-servers-with-prisma-JAVASCRIPT-e001/. You'd simply combine the graphql and rest parts of the tutorial.

thank you very much!
