What problem does it solve? Setting up Prisma with the correct database provider, connection string format, driver adapter, and client generation workflow is error-prone, especially with the differences between Prisma 6 and Prisma 7 and between SQL and MongoDB providers. This Skill provides verified, provider-specific configuration guidance so you avoid misconfigured schemas, wrong adapters, and connection failures. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Provider-Specific Guides: Step-by-step setup for PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, SQL Server, CockroachDB, and Prisma Postgres, including schema blocks, prisma.config.ts, and .env connection strings. - Driver Adapter Selection: Maps each database to the correct @prisma/adapter-* package and underlying JS driver, with instantiation examples for Prisma Client. - Version Guardrails: Clarifies that MongoDB projects must stay on Prisma 6.x with prisma-client-js and must not follow the Prisma 7 SQL adapter workflow. - Use Case: You are switching a project from SQLite to PostgreSQL. Use this Skill to update the datasource provider, install @prisma/adapter-pg, set the DATABASE_URL format, and regenerate Prisma Client correctly. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to configure Prisma for your chosen database, for example: set up Prisma with PostgreSQL including the driver adapter and connection string.
