Highlights

Local development with Prisma Postgres via prisma dev (Early Access)

In this release, we're releasing a way to develop against Prisma Postgres locally — no Docker required!

To get started, run the new prisma dev command:

npx prisma dev # starts a local Prisma Postgres server

This command spins up a local Prisma Postgres instance and prints the connection URL that you'll need to set as the url of your datasource block to point to a local Prisma Postgres instance. It looks similar to this:

datasource db {
  provider = "postgresql"
  url      = "prisma+postgres://localhost:51213/?api_key=ey..." 
}

You can then run migrations and execute queries against this local Prisma Postgres instance as with any remote one. Note that you need to keep the prisma dev process running in order to interact with the local Prisma Postgres instance.

Native Deno support in prisma-client generator (Preview)

In this release, we're removing the deno Preview feature from the prisma-client-js generator. If you want to use Prisma ORM with Deno, you can now do so with the new prisma-client generator:

generator client {
  provider = "prisma-client"
  output   = "../src/generated/prisma"
  runtime = "deno"
}

VS Code Agent Mode: AI support with your database workflows

Have you tried agent mode in VS Code already?

"The agent acts as an autonomous pair programmer that performs multi-step coding tasks at your command, such as analyzing your codebase, proposing file edits, and running terminal commands."

As of this release, your agent is capable of supporting you with your database workflows more than ever! If you're using VS Code and have the Prisma VS Code extension installed, your agent now is able to help you with your database workflows, such as:

• checking the status of your migrations (e.g. telling you if migrations haven't been applied)
• creating and running schema migrations for you
• authenticating you with the Prisma Console
• provisioning new Prisma Postgres instances so you can start coding right away

All you need to do is make sure you're using the latest version of Prisma's VS Code extension and your agent is ready to go 🚀
