try-prisma
try-prisma copied to clipboard
try-prisma is a CLI tool that helps you easily get up and running with any project from the prisma/prisma-examples repository.
These projects are meant to be playgrounds for you to test integrations and features, not production-ready boilerplates or templates.
Do you have feedback about a specific example template? Submit it here!
Usage
The easiest way to set up a project using try-prisma is to run the following command:
npx try-prisma
This will walk you through a set of interactive options (detailed below) to help you set up your project.
Arguments
You can optionally provide arguments to the npx try-prisma command as an alternative to (or in combination with) the interactive experience.
The options are as follows:
| Option | Alias | Arguments | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
--install |
-i | Boolean | String (optional) | false |
--name |
-n | Name of the selected template | Defines the name of the resulting directory. | |
--path |
-p | . |
Path to the directory where the new folder should be created. | |
--template |
-t | n/a | Specifies which example project you would like to start off with. | |
--vscode |
-v | Boolean (optional) | false |
Adds a .vscode folder with an extensions.json file suggesting the Prisma VS Code extension. |
Examples
Selecting a template and installing packages
You would like to use the template named typescript/grpc, and install packages automatically:
npx try-prisma -t typescript/grpc --install
In this scenario, you will still be prompted to input values for your preferred package manager and the name of the resulting folder.
Selecting a package manager
If you wanted to use yarn to install the packages automatically:
npx try-prisma -i yarn
Selecting a directory and folder name
Below, you would create a new project at ../../projects/new_folder:
npx try-prisma -p ../../projects -n new_folder
All of the options!
Interactive terminal who?? Use all the options!
npx try-prisma -t typescript/grpc -i pnpm -n my_project -p ./projects
