This is an example project to demonstrate how to use Next.js with Prisma, Postgres and Docker.

• Next.js
• TypeScript
• Prisma
• Postgres
• Docker

Installation

This project requires node.js to be installed. This project uses volta to manage node versions.

To install volta run the following command in the terminal.

curl https://get.volta.sh | bash

Getting Started

Copy the default env vars

cp .env.example .env

You will need docker installed to setup a database then run

docker compose up -d

First, run the development server:

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.

Prisma

Migrations

run npm run prisma:status to check the status of the current migrations.

Then npm run prisma:migrate to run the migrations.

Seeding the database

Seed the database with npm run prisma:seed.

The migrations will only create the required tables and schema. The seed script will populate the database with data.
