So I’ve been developing a mobile application the past 2 weeks that requires mongoDB or any noSQL database. Being it that prisma 2 does not yet support mongoDB i am being forced to develop with prisma 1. Does anybody know how difficult it is to migrate? for when mongoDB is available. And does anyone know how long prisma 1 will be supported?

Not sure about MongoDB but, at least for other DBs, they are making big efforts in creating migration guides and tools to make it smooth. I assume for Mongo will be similar. That said, I don’t think Mongo support will be ready any time soon but I guess it’s better to get an answer about that from the team.

Yes you're correct. Currently we are working on an upgrade guide for users in Prisma 1 with MySQL and Postgres to migrate to Prisma 2. MongoDB support is in our pipeline here but there's no concrete ETA for it yet.

Ok sounds good. My next question is how is the support for mongodb? I would really like to use prisma as I’ve used it before with a mySQL db and mongodb for a smaller application. Both worked great, but this would be a larger API and I’m wondering what type of issues I’d run into

Prisma 1 has a stable support of Mongo and there are examples here that you can look into as well. One thing to remember would be Prisma relies on a model structure, so you would have to follow the same in Mongo, you wouldn't be able to randomly add a field to any schema like Mongo allows you to by default.

ok great! so if I follow prisma’s data model everything should work as expected

Yeah

Looking at that example, I see embedded types and I’m wondering if there is any way to embed an array of objects
