I appreciate the feedback.
At the time of writing, the article used Nuxt v2. However, it should be possible with Nuxt 3 without Express. I would recommend checking out sidebase.io which is more up to date. 🙂
Is it possible to use prisma with Nuxt 3 and /server/api folder for useAsyncData/useFetch methods (for send form data) without Express?
I don't find find how to sent (PUT/POST) my form data with useAsyncData/useFetch.
And Nuxt 3 come with the /server/api dir, why use Express?
Hi Axel 👋🏽
At the time the guide was written, the sample application was using Nuxt 2 (I'll add a note about this). You can exclude Express in your project. You can still use Prisma with in server routes.
how can we fetch data from database without using Express ? can we have samples using nuxt 2 . thank you
This was almost a year ago so I'm pretty sure you worked it out between then and now.
And then you'd just call
const { data } = await useFetch('/api/user/1');
in app.vue or which ever Vue component you'd like.If I had an array of posts pulled from another api. How could I add them in bulk to prismas?
E.g:
The age old adage... 'read the docs'
or replace result with:
Reference: Create multiple records
Great article 🙌
do you configure database properly ? double check schema..... try to run the migrate command
also try npx prisma studio ( for make sure the connection is set properly)
Hi, did you mean me? Yes the DB is running in dev mode. prisma studio is also running. When i try to build, generate and start the nuxt app the api is not available.
How to use or call this API in vue file to display result data? Can you please share example?
Hi Prashant 👋🏽
You can use the fetch, axios or http nuxt modules to fetch call the API in either your component or page as follows:
You can choose how you would like to display your data in the view.
Hi Alex,
Thanks for your response, well the thing is i am starting with Nuxt 3 so later i don't have to rewrite my project, and nuxt 3 have no support for axios.
Nuxt 3 having fetch option and h3, but i am not sure how to use them as Post method to submit my form data.
So do you have any idea about that?
Regards,
For a form submission, you can still use fetch to submit data to the API route.
We created a
rest-nuxtjs
example but it uses Nuxt v2 and a custom server. In that example, thecreate.vue
page makes a form submission to an API route. You can use this example for inspiration when handling form submission in your application.Here's what the function resembles:
Let me know if you run into any other issues. I'd be happy to help! 🙂
Hello Alex,
Before i test your example code for form submission, i am stuck with the API call, i have created a file server/api/index.js and here its code part
Now, when i run the server localhost:3000 it says handle is not a function
with error code 500
i think as per nuxt 3 document for API ( v3.nuxtjs.org/docs/directory-struc... ) might be it has its own way to handle the request,
So, did you have ever tried this kind of call and have any suggestion for me to fix it?
Thanks a lot
Great job!! Tanx! also a question! I wanna import an DB from server on local to work offline. should I write the schema of main server BD before import for prisma to work??
Hey Mojtaba 👋
If you're referring to the database schema, you can use the
db pull
command that the Prisma CLI provides to introspect your database. You can then change theDATABASE_URL
in the.env
file from the main server to your local database instance, rundb push
orprisma migrate dev
to apply the schema to your local database as well as generate a new Prisma Client.Tanx. BTW a final question that you may know the answer to.
I'm trying to build an electron app with nuxt-prisma-sqlite . on dev everything is ok, but on built exe file my api wont be handled by express and it gives 404.
Did you have ever came across this??
can I use prisma in Vue component as I do in React and Next
Hey Manoj, 👋🏽
Prisma runs on the server-side. If you're using Nuxt, you can run Prisma in the
asyncData
andfetch
hooks at either a page or component level.I created a small demo you can check out experimenting how this would work. Your feedback on this would be appreciated too 🙂
I managed to create a middleware API in Nuxt
I also tried PrismaClient as Vue plugin(Vue.use) and it fails.
Same result in Vuex store.
gist.github.com/manojap/fb0d973551...
Here is my sandbox
codesandbox.io/s/nuxt-api-prisma-a...
The sample on Codesandbox should work just fine. I've managed to query data – both the REST and GraphQL API.
Could you share the error you get when you use a Vue plugin?
Would it be possible to expand on this article for user authentication?
Hi @liamb 👋
That sounds like a terrific idea, similar to How to Build a Fullstack App with Next.js, Prisma, and PostgreSQL. Before we get to it, you can have a look at nuxt-auth.
Could You upgrade into nuxt 3?
right solution
I know its been several months since this post, but how does someone create API routes if you have hundreds of models? Is there an easier way or a generator?
Hi Sebastian 👋🏽
The API routes defined would be depended on the business logic of your application. However, if you're looking to build a generator, take a look at create-prisma-generator. However, the API for building generators is unofficial and undocumented.
Hoi, how can i build this correctly? Everytime i try npm run build, generate and start the frontend works fine but the backend (api) is not reachable.
