Prisma

Hello how do you have use prisma in an express router?

Do I have to create a connection in every route?

Hey Olawale!

We have a ready to use Express example <https://github.com/prisma/prisma-examples/tree/latest/javascript/rest-express|here>.

You should not create a connection in every route, you should create the `PrismaClient` once and reuse it :thumbsup:.

The example does not use a router, I have found a solution here <https://www.prisma.io/docs/guides/performance-and-optimization/connection-management#prismaclient-in-long-running-applications|https://www.prisma.io/docs/guides/performance-and-optimization/connection-management#prismaclient-in-long-running-applications>
