Providing usable examples for paljs

[martineboh]

Thanks for your work!

I find it really hard to use prisma-tools because enough example code isn't provided, just bunch of interfaces. I have been trying to generate SDL from my schema.prisma file for days now with no success using pal g command, even after creating pal.json in my root directory with schema.prisma in the prisma directory relative to root.

If you using pal.json you need to pass his name to pal g command like pal g -c pal.json if you using pal.js so you can use pal g without any custom flags in the command

Also, you not provided any errors message that sees what is wrong with you to help you

Thanks for responding so quickly. It doesn't show any error, just displayed Generating your files in just a second. I am using pal.js with content: !!! - I am not using TS.

module.exports = {
    schemaFolder: '/prisma',
    backend: {
        models: ['Profile', 'Senator'],
        generator: 'sdl',
        onDelete: true,
        excludeQueriesAndMutations: ['aggregate']
    }
};

I ran pal g in the root directory - it generated src/graphql folder with the wrong Models: Course, Group, Post, Product, User...with their corresponding typeDefs and resolvers.ts that are not in my schema.prisma file.

PS: Also how do I use the below with the Option args:

import { Generator } from '@paljs/generator';
import { generateGraphQlSDLFile } from '@paljs/plugins';
import typeDefs from './graphql/typeDefs';
import resolvers from './graphql/resolvers';

let schema = makeExecutableSchema({ typeDefs, resolvers });

// Build one sdl file have all types you can delete if you not need
generateGraphQlSDLFile(schema);

Talk to me in Prisma slack

So the problem you need to run prisma generate command first before pal g command
