Prisma v2: generate a .graphql file to edit with?

Question

I'm building a graphql server (with apollo-server ) on an existing postgresql db ( I cannot modify the db tables ).

Prisma can introspect the db and generate a schema.prisma file containing all db tables. To implement the graphql server, I need to define graphql types and queries and mutations manually.

With Prisma v1, this prisma.yml can generate a graphql file.

generate:
  - generator: graphql-schema
  output: ./generated/prisma.graphql

For Prisma v2, is there any way to generate a graphql file from schema.prisma ?

Then I can modify the graphql file by removing some types that do not needed to be exposed to front, and create queries and mutations by myself.

Answer 1

Prisma2 是一个 orm，与prisma1 不同，因此您可以使用nexus-plugin-prisma库从 Prisma 模式自动生成您的 GraphQL 类型和解析器

Answer 2

Prisma 2 is just an ORM unlike Prisma 1 that had a GraphQL layer. So you would need external libraries like this to autogenerate a GraphQL file. You can check out TypeGraphQL that does this.
