Use Hasura instead of Primsa/sqlite/postgres?

[cj]

Hi is it possible to use Hasura instead of Primsa/sqlite/postgres?

I see I can change most everything to use Hasura instead of db, but it seems like I don't have access to override the way sessions are set. Is there a simple way I can hack it to allow my own custom session handler?

Cheers!

Yes you can do that! See https://blitzjs.com/docs/session-management#customize-session-persistence-and-database-access. You can see an example using graphql here: https://github.com/blitz-js/blitz/blob/canary/examples/fauna/blitz.config.js#L24

@flybayer I removed all the places where it uses db, but I still get this error:

error - ./db/index.ts:2:0
Module not found: Can't resolve '@prisma/client'
  1 | import { enhancePrisma } from "blitz"
> 2 | import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"
  3 |
  4 | const EnhancedPrisma = enhancePrisma(PrismaClient)

So it looks like there is a hard requirement for prisma even if you are not using it.

What do you think of the idea of having a --no-database option when running blitz new?

[flybayer]

You need to either remove db/index.ts or remove prisma from that file.

And yeah, we can add more options to blitz new. PRs welcome!

And I just fixed the link in the docs. Should be live within a minute or two.

@flybayer I had removed the db folder completely and anything that uses db, but I was still getting that error. I think there is still something internally to Blitjs that is using it.

Ok, first try deleting .next and .blitz. If issue still persists, then open a bug report with exact steps to reproduce (repo or something ideally)

Will do - thank you!
