Prisma Datasource

- Prisma Plugin Repository

- npm package

Overview

Prisma-as-datasource plugin provides functionality to access most popular databases like, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB, CockroachDB, Planetscale and MariaDB through Prisma ORM.

"Prisma: Bridging Databases for Seamless Development. One Toolkit, Any Database."

Prisma is a modern and open-source database toolkit that simplifies database access for developers. It offers a strongly typed query builder, schema migrations, support for various databases, real-time data synchronization, and enhanced security, making it a powerful tool for efficient and secure database interactions in web applications.

How to add plugin

Add plugin

Create a godspeed project from the CLI , open the created project in vscode and then add the plugin from the CLI of vscode, select the @godspeedsystems/plugins-prisma-as-datastore to integrate the plugin.

You will find a file in your project related to the Prisma plugin at src/datasources/types/prisma.ts.

prisma.ts
import { DataSource } from '@godspeedsystems/plugins-prisma-as-datastore';
export default DataSource;

How to use

You can start using this plugin by writing a prisma schema. src/datasources directory and giving your db_connection_url in .env file.

Sample prisma schema
#SamplePrisma

prisma title = src/datasources/db_name.prisma

datasource db {
provider = "db_name" // for example, mysql, postgresql or mongodb
url = env("DB_URL") // add your DB_URL string in .env file
}

generator client {
provider = "prisma-client-js"
output = "./prisma-clients/db_name" // here you can give name for your prisma-client
}

model User {

}

model Post {

}

Support for multiple prisma schema

By default, only single prisma schema can be created in a project that can use only one database. To support multiple prisma schemas for different databases, you need to add output key in generator client block as given in the above sample prisma schema.

Generate prisma client

Run godspeed prisma prepare. It will

4.1 Generate your prisma client for your given schema and DB. It will place the generated client in the src/datasources/prisma-clients/ folder. This is achieved internally by prisma generate command.

4.2 It will setup the provided schema on the database which is provided in the .prisma file. This is achieved internally by the command prisma db push


$ godspeed prisma prepare

Once you generate prisma client, the multiple clients get generated in src/datasources/prisma-clients directory. Godspeed automatically loads all the clients present in this directory.

Generate CRUD APIs

You can generate the CRUD API'S enter the below command:


godspeed gen-crud-api
  • This command will generate the crud apis based on the sample prisma schema provided at ./src/datasources/mongo.prisma

  • Now you can view the event and workflows according defined prisma schema

Sample API

Here is a sample event and workflow which is fetching data from the database.

src/events/mongo.yaml
http.get./mongo/post/{id}:
summary: Fetch Post
description: Fetch Post from database
fn: com.biz.mongo.post.one
params:
- name: id
in: path
required: true
schema:
type: string
responses:
content:
application/json:
schema:
type: object
com/biz/mongo/post/one.yaml
summary: Fetch Post
tasks:
- id: mongo_post_one
fn: datasource.mongo.Post.findUnique
args:
where:
id: <% inputs.params.id %>

Database Encryption

Godspeed provides AES-256 GCM both way deterministic hashing encryption in Prisma plugin. You can apply encryption only on String type fields.

Annotate prisma schema

In your prisma schema, add /// @encrypted annotation to the fields you want to encrypt.

sample schema to encrypt email field
src/datasources/mongo.prisma
datasource db {
provider = "mongodb"
url = env("MONGO_TEST_URL") //Connection string can be found in the .env file, you can add your own database connection string
}

generator client {
provider = "prisma-client-js"
output = "./prisma-clients/mongo"
}

model User {
id String @id @default(auto()) @map("_id") @db.ObjectId
createdAt DateTime @default(now())
email String @unique /// @encrypted
name String?
role Role @default(USER)
posts Post[]
}

model Post {
id String @id @default(auto()) @map("_id") @db.ObjectId
createdAt DateTime @default(now())
updatedAt DateTime @updatedAt
published Boolean @default(false)
title String
author User? @relation(fields: [authorId], references: [id])
authorId String @db.ObjectId
}

enum Role {
USER
ADMIN
}

Add secret

You can specify secret in prisma_secret variable in config environment variables.

Database Authorization

The plugin provides rows and columns level authorization access as explained in Authorization. If you are not allowed to access something, then empty data is returned.
- empty rows (e.g. in case where query trespasses access boundaries)
- empty fields (e.g. in case all the fields in the query are not allowed to access)

info

Check the below clauses which are available in this plugin and provides database level restricted access. For further enhancements and updates in database access, check this Github issue.

where

Additonal row level access to be applied on the DB query. For example, check below a sample authz instruction:

authz: 
- id: authz_task_1
summary: return access columns
fn: com.gs.transform
args:
can_access:
- col1
- col2
no_access:
- col3
where:
tenant: <% inputs.headers.client_id %>

Here, where clause restricts returning only those rows where this condition is true.

select

Additional columns which should be returned in the DB query.

can_access

Columns which are allowed to access. When can_access is present no_access will be ignored.

no_access

Columns which are not allowed to access.

Remember

If no_access/can_access is set, then you will not be able to specify:
a) where clause on columns not allowed. This includes direct field match, and nested AND and OR queries.
b) select clause on columns not allowed.

Sample workflow with inline authz instruction
In the below workflow with inline authz instruction can_access, no_access and where conditions are provided. These conditions will be applied while fetching author details.
fetch_author.yaml
summary: Fetch author
tasks:
- id: fetch_author
fn: datasource.mysql.author.findUnique
authz:
- fn: com.gs.transform
args:
# can_access:
# - col1
# - col2
no_access:
- col3
where:
tenant: <% inputs.headers.client_id %>
args:
where:
id: <% inputs.params.id %>
Sample workflow calling a separate authz workflow
fetch_author.yaml
summary: Fetch author
tasks:
- id: fetch_author
fn: datasource.mysql.author.findUnique
authz:
- fn: authz_wf
args: <% inputs %>
args:
where:
id: <% inputs.params.id %>

In the below authz workflow can_access, no_access and where conditions are provided. These conditions will be applied while fetching author details.

authz_wf.yaml
summary: authz workflow
- id: authz_task_1
summary: return access columns
fn: com.gs.transform
args:
can_access:
- col1
- col2
# no_access:
# - col3
where:
tenant: <% inputs.headers.client_id %>
