prisma / @prisma/client 6.19.2 -> 7.8.0; added @prisma/adapter-mariadb 7.8.0 and
mariadb 3.5.2 (the runtime driver).
Prisma 7 breaking changes handled (verified via Prisma's own tooling — the
official upgrade-guide summary had hallucinated package names, so I confirmed
everything against `prisma validate`/`generate` and the installed type defs):
- The Rust query engine is removed; the runtime connection is now made through a
driver adapter. src/config/database.ts wires PrismaMariaDb, parsing
DATABASE_URL into an explicit mariadb pool config so the literal `@` in our
password (which a naive connection-string parser mishandles) is correct.
- datasource `url` is no longer allowed in schema.prisma -> moved to a new
prisma.config.ts (schema + datasource.url + migrations.seed). Prisma 7 no
longer auto-loads .env, so the config does `import "dotenv/config"`.
- The deprecated package.json#prisma seed config was removed (now in the config).
- seed.ts and the two maintenance scripts now use the shared adapter-wired client.
The legacy `prisma-client-js` generator STILL works under v7 (generates to
@prisma/client as before), so NO import-path changes were needed across the 16
@prisma/client import sites — switching to the new prisma-client/output generator
is not required for us. No prisma.$use() middleware exists. Node 24 / TS 5.9
exceed the v7 minimums (20.19 / 5.4).
No migrations were run (your DBs are untouched); removing datasource.url is a
config change, not DDL, so this phase needs no new migration.
Gates: tsc 0 | build 0 | vitest 247/247 against app_test (proves the mariadb
adapter works at runtime, incl. raw SELECT...FOR UPDATE locking and Decimal/VAT)
| eslint 0 errors.
