library1.3.11jsnpmunverified

pothos-prisma-generator v1.3.11 automatically generates a complete GraphQL schema (queries, mutations, counts) from your Prisma schema at runtime. No code generation output — the schema is built internally using Pothos plugins. It supports standard CRUD operations, authorization via ScopeAuthPlugin, and dynamic value replacement (e.g., injecting user IDs). Requires @pothos/core, @pothos/plugin-prisma, @pothos/plugin-prisma-utils, and optionally @pothos/plugin-scope-auth. Active development on GitHub.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

PothosPrismaGeneratorPlugin

✓ import PothosPrismaGeneratorPlugin from 'pothos-prisma-generator'

✗ const PothosPrismaGeneratorPlugin = require('pothos-prisma-generator')

Default export, ES module only. CommonJS require will fail.

SchemaBuilder

✓ import SchemaBuilder from '@pothos/core'

Used in conjunction with this plugin.

PrismaTypes

✓ import PrismaTypes from './generated/pothos-types'

✗ import PrismaTypes from 'pothos-prisma-generator'

PrismaTypes is generated locally, not part of this package.

Basic setup of Pothos builder with the Prisma generator plugin, auto-generating GraphQL schema from Prisma model.

import SchemaBuilder from '@pothos/core'; import PrismaPlugin from '@pothos/plugin-prisma'; import PrismaUtils from '@pothos/plugin-prisma-utils'; import PothosPrismaGeneratorPlugin from 'pothos-prisma-generator'; import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client'; const prisma = new PrismaClient(); export const builder = new SchemaBuilder({ plugins: [PrismaPlugin, PrismaUtils, PothosPrismaGeneratorPlugin], prisma: { client: prisma, dmmf: Prisma.dmmf, }, }); const schema = builder.toSchema();

Debug

Known issues

gotchaUsing async-function@1.0.0 causes errors with Pothos when running via tsx. Pin async-function to 0.1.0 via resolutions in package.json.

fix

Add "resolutions": { "async-function": "0.1.0" } to package.json.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedPrismaTypes is no longer required to be passed to SchemaBuilder generics; types are generated automatically. Including it may cause conflicts.

fix

Remove PrismaTypes from the generic parameter of SchemaBuilder.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe plugin automatically registers scalar types (BigInt, Bytes, etc.) using graphql-scalars. If you don't have those installed, it will throw at runtime.

fix

Install graphql-scalars or set autoScalers: false in plugin options.

affects: >=1.0.0

breakingEdge runtimes require the prisma-dmmf.js file to be imported instead of using Prisma.dmmf.

fix

Import prismaDmmf from './generated/prisma-dmmf.js' and pass to dmmf instead of Prisma.dmmf.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'dmmf')

Missing or incorrect dmmf configuration in builder options.

fix

Ensure prisma.dmmf is passed correctly: { prisma: { client: prisma, dmmf: Prisma.dmmf } }

Error: Cannot find module 'graphql-scalars'

The plugin auto-registers scalars from graphql-scalars, which is not installed.

fix

Install graphql-scalars: npm install graphql-scalars

Error: async-function@1.0.0 is incompatible with Pothos

tsx resolves async-function to version 1.0.0 which breaks Pothos.

fix

Pin async-function to 0.1.0 in package.json resolutions.
