[robin-macpherson]

Description

Issue:

• closes 🗺 Migrate To Nexus-Prisma Plugin #757

This started out as an experimental PR to explore the possibility of migrating off of nexus-plugin-prisma to the new nexus-prisma plugin and understand the new API and the risks/complexity of migrating.

After initial exploration and discussion, we decided to move forward with the migration which is now the purpose of this PR.

Subtasks 1 (Research Phase)

• I have added this PR to the Journaly Kanban project ✅
• Handle installation and at least get things generating
• Start converting a few things and see how easy it is, how well documented things are, and find any possible questions that need clarifying
• Discuss and see whether or not to continue

Subtasks 2 (Execution Phase)

• Add documentation to schema
• Re-order schema so that the ordering is a bit more logical
• Get things at least building with nexus-prisma
• Convert everything over to the new syntax at a high level and find any blockers
• Complete the initial refactor and get the build functioning
• FInalize schema changes and publish new j-db-client version to NPM
• Finalize refactor and get build completely passing finally
• Figure out most thorough code review and testing strategy
• Test, test, test, and then test some more
• A bit more testing
• Test one more time.

Migrations

If your PR doesn't involve any changes to the database, you can delete this section. If it does, briefly describe how it needs to be applied. Some common things you might mention are:

• Does the migration need to be applied before or after deploying code?
• Is applying the migration going to necessitate downtime?
• Is there any SQL or backfill logic that has to be run manually?
• Are the DB changes high risk in your estimation? Should a manual DB snapshot be taken before applying?
