NestJS + Prisma: stack backend modern untuk Node.js
Panduan lengkap untuk membangun API backend modern dengan NestJS dan Prisma. Setup, model, service, transaksi, dan praktik terbaik dijelaskan.

NestJS dan Prisma membentuk kombinasi yang kuat untuk pengembangan backend modern. NestJS menyediakan arsitektur modular dan dependency injection, sementara Prisma menghadirkan ORM yang aman secara tipe dengan pengalaman developer yang luar biasa. Stack ini memungkinkan pembangunan API yang andal dan mudah dipelihara.
Prisma secara otomatis menghasilkan klien TypeScript bertipe dari skema database. Dipadukan dengan NestJS dan sistem modulnya, kode mendokumentasikan dirinya sendiri dan kesalahan tipe terdeteksi pada saat kompilasi.
Konfigurasi awal proyek
Mengintegrasikan Prisma ke dalam proyek NestJS memerlukan beberapa langkah konfigurasi. Prosesnya standar dan terdokumentasi dengan baik.
# terminal
# Create a new NestJS project
nest new my-backend-api
cd my-backend-api
# Install Prisma as a dev dependency
npm install prisma --save-dev
# Install the Prisma client
npm install @prisma/client
# Initialize Prisma with PostgreSQL
npx prisma init --datasource-provider postgresqlPerintah ini membuat folder prisma/ dengan file schema.prisma dan file .env untuk variabel lingkungan.
import { Injectable, OnModuleInit, OnModuleDestroy, Logger } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';
@Injectable()
export class PrismaService extends PrismaClient implements OnModuleInit, OnModuleDestroy {
// Dedicated logger for Prisma operations
private readonly logger = new Logger(PrismaService.name);
constructor() {
// Configure client with logging in development
super({
log: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
? ['query', 'info', 'warn', 'error']
: ['error'],
});
}
// Automatic connection on module startup
async onModuleInit() {
await this.$connect();
this.logger.log('Prisma connection established');
}
// Clean disconnection on application shutdown
async onModuleDestroy() {
await this.$disconnect();
this.logger.log('Prisma connection closed');
}
}Service Prisma kini siap untuk diinjeksi ke service lain pada aplikasi.
Membuat modul Prisma global
Untuk membuat service Prisma tersedia di seluruh aplikasi tanpa perlu mengimpornya secara eksplisit di setiap modul, digunakan dekorator @Global().
import { Global, Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaService } from './prisma.service';
// The @Global decorator makes this module available everywhere
@Global()
@Module({
providers: [PrismaService],
exports: [PrismaService],
})
export class PrismaModule {}Impor pada modul root membuat service tersedia secara otomatis.
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaModule } from './prisma/prisma.module';
import { UsersModule } from './users/users.module';
import { PostsModule } from './posts/posts.module';
@Module({
imports: [
PrismaModule, // Single declaration is sufficient
UsersModule,
PostsModule,
],
})
export class AppModule {}Kini setiap service dapat menginjeksi PrismaService tanpa impor tambahan.
Modul global menyederhanakan arsitektur tetapi membuat ketergantungan menjadi implisit. Untuk aplikasi kecil hal ini dapat diterima. Pada proyek besar, impor eksplisit memperbaiki keterlacakan ketergantungan.
Mendefinisikan skema Prisma
File schema.prisma mendefinisikan model data, relasi, dan opsi database. Prisma menggunakan bahasa definisi skemanya sendiri (PSL).
generator client {
provider = "prisma-client-js"
// Enable types for advanced filtering queries
previewFeatures = ["fullTextSearch"]
}
datasource db {
provider = "postgresql"
url = env("DATABASE_URL")
}
// User model with all relations
model User {
id String @id @default(cuid())
email String @unique
password String
name String
role Role @default(USER)
createdAt DateTime @default(now()) @map("created_at")
updatedAt DateTime @updatedAt @map("updated_at")
// One-to-many relations
posts Post[]
comments Comment[]
profile Profile?
// Index for frequent searches
@@index([email])
@@map("users")
}
// Enum for user roles
enum Role {

}
// One-to-one relation with User
model Profile {
id String @id @default(cuid())
bio String?

website String?
userId String @unique @map("user_id")
user User @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id], onDelete: Cascade)

@@index([postId])
@@map("comments")
}
// Categories for posts
model Category {

posts CategoriesOnPosts[]
@@map("categories")
}
// Pivot table for many-to-many relation
model CategoriesOnPosts {

@@id([postId, categoryId])
@@map("categories_on_posts")
}Setelah skema diubah, migrasi menerapkan perubahan tersebut ke database.
# terminal
# Create a migration with descriptive name
npx prisma migrate dev --name init_schema
# Generate Prisma client (automatic after migrate dev)
npx prisma generate
# View schema in browser
npx prisma studioImplementasi service users dengan Prisma
Service Users menggambarkan operasi CRUD yang umum dengan Prisma. Pengetikan otomatis menjamin konsistensi antara kode dan database.

Mengelola relasi dengan Prisma
Prisma menyederhanakan penanganan relasi yang kompleks. Query bersarang memungkinkan memuat data terkait dalam satu permintaan.
import { Injectable, NotFoundException, ForbiddenException } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaService } from '../prisma/prisma.service';
import { CreatePostDto } from './dto/create-post.dto';
import { UpdatePostDto } from './dto/update-post.dto';
import { Prisma } from '@prisma/client';
@Injectable()
export class PostsService {
constructor(private readonly prisma: PrismaService) {}
async create(authorId: string, createPostDto: CreatePostDto) {
// Automatic slug generation from title
const slug = this.generateSlug(createPostDto.title);
return this.prisma.post.create({
data: {
title: createPostDto.title,
slug,
content: createPostDto.content,
excerpt: createPostDto.excerpt,
// Connect to existing author
author: {
connect: { id: authorId },
},
// Connect to existing categories
categories: createPostDto.categoryIds ? {
create: createPostDto.categoryIds.map(categoryId => ({
category: { connect: { id: categoryId } },
})),
} : undefined,
},
include: {
author: {
select: { id: true, name: true },
},
categories: {
include: {
category: true,
},
},
},
});
}
async findAllPublished(params: {
page?: number;
limit?: number;
categorySlug?: string;
}) {
const { page = 1, limit = 10, categorySlug } = params;
const skip = (page - 1) * limit;
// Conditional filter by category
const where: Prisma.PostWhereInput = {
published: true,
...(categorySlug && {
categories: {
some: {
category: { slug: categorySlug },
},
},
}),
};
const [posts, total] = await this.prisma.$transaction([
this.prisma.post.findMany({
where,
skip,
take: limit,
orderBy: { publishedAt: 'desc' },
include: {
author: {
select: { id: true, name: true },
},
categories: {
include: {
category: { select: { name: true, slug: true } },
},
},
_count: {
select: { comments: true },
},
},
}),
this.prisma.post.count({ where }),
]);
return { posts, total, pages: Math.ceil(total / limit) };
}
async findBySlug(slug: string) {
const post = await this.prisma.post.findUnique({
where: { slug },
include: {
author: {
select: { id: true, name: true, profile: true },
},
categories: {
include: {
category: true,
},
},
comments: {
orderBy: { createdAt: 'desc' },
take: 20,
include: {
author: {
select: { id: true, name: true },
},
},
},
},
});
if (!post) {
throw new NotFoundException(`Post "${slug}" not found`);
}
return post;
}
async publish(id: string, authorId: string) {
// Verify author is the owner
const post = await this.prisma.post.findUnique({
where: { id },
select: { authorId: true },
});
if (!post) {
throw new NotFoundException(`Post with ID ${id} not found`);
}
if (post.authorId !== authorId) {
throw new ForbiddenException('Publication not authorized');
}
return this.prisma.post.update({
where: { id },
data: {
published: true,
publishedAt: new Date(),
},
});
}
private generateSlug(title: string): string {
return title
.toLowerCase()
.normalize('NFD')
.replace(/[\u0300-\u036f]/g, '')
.replace(/[^a-z0-9]+/g, '-')
.replace(/(^-|-$)/g, '');
}
}Penggunaan include memungkinkan pengambilan relasi mendalam dengan mengontrol field yang dikembalikan.
Transaksi dan operasi atomik
Prisma menawarkan beberapa metode untuk menjamin atomisitas operasi. Transaksi interaktif memberikan fleksibilitas tertinggi.
import { Injectable, BadRequestException } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaService } from '../prisma/prisma.service';
import { CreateOrderDto } from './dto/create-order.dto';
@Injectable()
export class OrdersService {
constructor(private readonly prisma: PrismaService) {}
async createOrder(userId: string, createOrderDto: CreateOrderDto) {
// Interactive transaction to ensure atomicity
return this.prisma.$transaction(async (tx) => {
// 1. Verify stock for each item
const items = await Promise.all(
createOrderDto.items.map(async (item) => {
const product = await tx.product.findUnique({
where: { id: item.productId },
});
if (!product) {
throw new BadRequestException(
`Product ${item.productId} not found`
);
}
if (product.stock < item.quantity) {
throw new BadRequestException(
`Insufficient stock for ${product.name}`
);
}
return { product, quantity: item.quantity };
})
);
// 2. Calculate total
const total = items.reduce(
(sum, { product, quantity }) => sum + product.price * quantity,
0
);
// 3. Create order
const order = await tx.order.create({
data: {
userId,
total,
status: 'PENDING',
items: {
create: items.map(({ product, quantity }) => ({
productId: product.id,
quantity,
price: product.price,
})),
},
},
include: {
items: {
include: { product: true },
},
},
});
// 4. Update stock
await Promise.all(
items.map(({ product, quantity }) =>
tx.product.update({
where: { id: product.id },
data: { stock: { decrement: quantity } },
})
)
);
return order;
});
}
async cancelOrder(orderId: string, userId: string) {
return this.prisma.$transaction(async (tx) => {
// Get order with items
const order = await tx.order.findUnique({
where: { id: orderId },
include: { items: true },
});
if (!order || order.userId !== userId) {
throw new BadRequestException('Order not found');
}
if (order.status !== 'PENDING') {
throw new BadRequestException(
'Only pending orders can be cancelled'
);
}
// Restore stock
await Promise.all(
order.items.map((item) =>
tx.product.update({
where: { id: item.productId },
data: { stock: { increment: item.quantity } },
})
)
);
// Update status
return tx.order.update({
where: { id: orderId },
data: { status: 'CANCELLED' },
});
});
}
}Transaksi menjamin bahwa semua operasi berhasil bersama-sama atau gagal bersama-sama.
Secara default, transaksi Prisma memiliki timeout 5 detik. Untuk operasi yang panjang, hal ini dapat disesuaikan dengan $transaction([...], { timeout: 10000 }).
Middleware Prisma untuk audit
Middleware Prisma memungkinkan menangkap query untuk menambahkan perilaku lintas potong seperti audit atau soft delete.
import { Injectable, OnModuleInit, OnModuleDestroy, Logger } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaClient, Prisma } from '@prisma/client';
@Injectable()
export class PrismaService extends PrismaClient implements OnModuleInit, OnModuleDestroy {
private readonly logger = new Logger(PrismaService.name);
constructor() {
super({
log: [
{ level: 'query', emit: 'event' },
{ level: 'error', emit: 'stdout' },
],
});
// Middleware for modification auditing
this.$use(async (params: Prisma.MiddlewareParams, next) => {
const start = Date.now();
// Execute query
const result = await next(params);
const duration = Date.now() - start;
// Log slow queries (> 100ms)
if (duration > 100) {
this.logger.warn(
`Slow query: ${params.model}.${params.action} - ${duration}ms`
);
}
// Audit write operations
if (['create', 'update', 'delete'].includes(params.action)) {
this.logger.log(
`Audit: ${params.action} on ${params.model} - ${duration}ms`
);
}
return result;
});
// Middleware for automatic soft delete
this.$use(async (params, next) => {
// Transform delete to update for certain models
if (params.model === 'User' && params.action === 'delete') {
params.action = 'update';
params.args['data'] = { deletedAt: new Date() };
}
// Automatic exclusion of deleted records
if (params.model === 'User' && params.action === 'findMany') {
if (!params.args) params.args = {};
if (!params.args.where) params.args.where = {};
params.args.where.deletedAt = null;
}
return next(params);
});
}
async onModuleInit() {
await this.$connect();
}
async onModuleDestroy() {
await this.$disconnect();
}
}Middleware dieksekusi sesuai urutan registrasi dan dapat mengubah parameter query.
Optimasi performa dengan Prisma
Beberapa teknik mengoptimalkan performa query Prisma pada aplikasi NestJS.
import { Prisma, PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';
// Extension for standardized pagination
export const paginationExtension = Prisma.defineExtension({
model: {
$allModels: {
async paginate<T, A>(
this: T,
args: Prisma.Exact<A, Prisma.Args<T, 'findMany'>> & {
page?: number;
limit?: number;
}
): Promise<{
data: Prisma.Result<T, A, 'findMany'>;
meta: { page: number; limit: number; total: number; pages: number };
}> {
const { page = 1, limit = 10, ...rest } = args as any;
const skip = (page - 1) * limit;
const context = Prisma.getExtensionContext(this);
const [data, total] = await Promise.all([
(context as any).findMany({ ...rest, skip, take: limit }),
(context as any).count({ where: (rest as any).where }),
]);
return {
data,
meta: {
page,
limit,
total,
pages: Math.ceil(total / limit),
},
};
},
},
},
});
// Usage in service
// const result = await this.prisma.$extends(paginationExtension)
// .user.paginate({ page: 2, limit: 20, where: { role: 'USER' } });Untuk query yang sering dijalankan, cache meningkatkan waktu respons secara signifikan.
import { Injectable, Inject } from '@nestjs/common';
import { CACHE_MANAGER } from '@nestjs/cache-manager';
import { Cache } from 'cache-manager';
import { PrismaService } from '../prisma/prisma.service';
@Injectable()
export class PostsService {
constructor(
private readonly prisma: PrismaService,
@Inject(CACHE_MANAGER) private cacheManager: Cache,
) {}
async findPopularPosts() {
const cacheKey = 'posts:popular';
// Try to get from cache
const cached = await this.cacheManager.get(cacheKey);
if (cached) {
return cached;
}
// Database query
const posts = await this.prisma.post.findMany({
where: { published: true },
orderBy: { comments: { _count: 'desc' } },
take: 10,
include: {
author: { select: { name: true } },
_count: { select: { comments: true } },
},
});
// Cache for 5 minutes
await this.cacheManager.set(cacheKey, posts, 300000);
return posts;
}
async invalidateCache(postId: string) {
// Selective cache invalidation
await this.cacheManager.del('posts:popular');
await this.cacheManager.del(`post:${postId}`);
}
}Pengujian dengan Prisma dan NestJS
Pengujian memerlukan strategi database yang terisolasi. Menggunakan database khusus pengujian menjamin reproduktibilitas.
import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';
import { execSync } from 'child_process';
const prisma = new PrismaClient();
export async function setupTestDatabase() {
// Use a test database
process.env.DATABASE_URL = process.env.TEST_DATABASE_URL;
// Apply migrations
execSync('npx prisma migrate deploy', {
env: { ...process.env, DATABASE_URL: process.env.TEST_DATABASE_URL },
});
}
export async function cleanupTestDatabase() {
// Delete all data in dependency order
const tablenames = await prisma.$queryRaw<Array<{ tablename: string }>>`
SELECT tablename FROM pg_tables WHERE schemaname='public'
`;
for (const { tablename } of tablenames) {
if (tablename !== '_prisma_migrations') {
await prisma.$executeRawUnsafe(
`TRUNCATE TABLE "public"."${tablename}" CASCADE;`
);
}
}
}
export async function disconnectTestDatabase() {
await prisma.$disconnect();
}Pengujian integrasi menggunakan helper ini untuk memastikan lingkungan yang bersih.
