Setup

As Prisma Client Python supports generating both async and non-async clients, there is some differences required when generating the client.

Installing

Prisma Client Python can be installed from PyPi with pip

pip install prisma

Asyncio

Schema

generator client {
  provider  = "prisma-client-py"
  interface = "asyncio"
}

Boilerplate

The minimum code required to get starting using asyncio:

import asyncio
from prisma import Client

async def main() -> None:
    client = Client()
    await client.connect()

    # write your queries here

    await client.disconnect()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())

Synchronous client

Schema

generator client {
  provider  = "prisma-client-py"
  interface = "sync"
}

Boilerplate

The minimum code required to get starting using a synchronous client:

from prisma import Client

def main() -> None:
    client = Client()
    client.connect()

    # write your queries here

    client.disconnect()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
