prisma-plugin: What is the correct way for defining and using enums?

[m4rvr]

Hey!

I have an enum Role defined in my schema.prisma like this

enum Role {
  USER
  ADMIN
}

but I'm not 100% sure what the correct implementation would be. Is this correct?

builder.enumType(Role, {
  name: 'Role'
})

builder.prismaObject('User', {
  findUnique: (user) => ({ id: user.id }),
  fields: (t) => ({
    // ... other fields
    role: t.field({
      type: Role,
      resolve: ({ role }) => role
    })
  })
})

This looks correct, is this causing an issue for you?

[m4rvr]

No not at all, I was just wondering if there is an auto-generated type for it.

But that's fine, I've probably misunderstood something. Thanks!

Pothos tends to avoid auto-generating anywhere whenever possible. The goal is to make it easy to define things yourself, so that you have full control, and can configure things to work the way you want

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification!
