Use prisma globally in api routes

I have a question, is it possible to use the prisma client globally without having to import it everytime? I'm using Prisma + Turso so there's a bit more than just two lines of code to use the prisma client so adding it to every api file is a bit tiring, is there a way to make it available as a util/helper globally? what is the best way to do it?

import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"
const libsql = createClient({
  url: `${tursoDatabaseUrl}`,
  authToken: `${tursoAuthToken}`,
})

const adapter = new PrismaLibSQL(libsql)
const prisma = new PrismaClient({ adapter })

import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"
const libsql = createClient({
  url: `${tursoDatabaseUrl}`,
  authToken: `${tursoAuthToken}`,
})

const adapter = new PrismaLibSQL(libsql)
const prisma = new PrismaClient({ adapter })

exports in server/utils/ will be auto-imported. otherwise use the imports field in nuxt.config.ts to specify your own paths https://nuxt.com/docs/api/nuxt-config#imports

https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/server#server-utilities it exports a defineWrappedResponseHandler tho

The server/ directory is used to register API and server handlers to your application.

update: im using it as a server/utils, but instead of exporting a handler, i'm just exporting prisma itself :salute:
