Common Local Development Issues
The table <table-name> does not exist in the current database.- Runpnpm prisma:pushpush the state of the Prisma schema file to the database without using migrations files.- The project is not building correctly locally - verify your versions of
nodeandpnpmmatch the recommended versions above. Delete allnode_modules,.next, and.turbodirectories in theappsandpackagesdirectory. You may now reinstallnode_modulesby runningpnpm installand attempt to rebuild the project withpnpm build.
Dev Seed Script
This script seeds the database with development data for testing and development purposes.
Basic seeding (adds data without deleting existing data):
cd apps/web
pnpm run script dev/seed
Truncate database before seeding (deletes all existing data first):
cd apps/web
pnpm run script dev/seed --truncate
When using --truncate, the script will ask for confirmation before deleting any data.
