Overview

The Prisma command line interface (CLI) is the primary tool to deploy and manage your Prisma services.

The Prisma CLI helps you in areas such as:

• Bootstraping service configuration files for new services
• Deploying services to Prisma servers
• Generating authentication tokens
• Seeding, importing and exporting data
• ...and more

To get detailled information about all CLI commands, read the command reference.

Installation

The Prisma CLI can be installed from the NPM registry.

NPM

npm install -g prisma

Yarn

yarn global add prisma

Quickstart

Once installed, execute the following commands to get your Prisma API up-and-running and start sending queries and mutations to it:

prisma init hello-world
# Select a *demo server* from the interactive prompt
cd hello-world
prisma deploy
prisma playground

You can now start sending queries and mutations to your Prisma API. For a more comprehensive walkthrough, check out the Get Started section.

Usage with graphql-config

The Prisma CLI integrates with graphql-config. If your project uses a .graphqlconfig-file, you can use the prisma extension and point it to your prisma.yml:

projects:
  prisma:
    schemaPath: prisma.graphql
    extensions:
      prisma: prisma.yml

Using a HTTP proxy for the CLI

The Prisma CLI supports custom HTTP proxies. This is particularly relevant when being behind a corporate firewall.

To activate the proxy, provide the environment variables HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY. The behavior is very similar to how the npm CLI handles this.

The following environment variables can be provided:

• HTTP_PROXY or http_proxy: Proxy URL for http traffic, for example http://localhost:8080
• HTTPS_PROXY or https_proxy: Proxy URL for https traffic, for example https://localhost:8080
• NO_PROXY or no_proxy: To disable the proxying for certain URLs, please provide a glob for NO_PROXY, for example *.

To get a simple local proxy, you can use the proxy module:

npm install -g proxy
DEBUG="*" proxy -p 8080
HTTP_PROXY=http://localhost:8080 HTTPS_PROXY=https://localhost:8080 prisma deploy
