Import Enum from my TS to the schema

Hey,

Wanted to know if it's possible to import an enum inside my

schema.prisma

schema.prisma

file instead of defining it inside ?

Because all my types used by both front & back are located to a dedicated package, and it actually force me to define my enum in 2 distinct places, where I would like to only have it in my types package.

Thanks!

Hi @DollarNavalex

Prisma does not support importing enums directly into the

schema.prisma

schema.prisma

file from external packages or files. Enums need to be defined within the Prisma schema file itself. This limitation means that you have to define your enums in two distinct places if you want to use them both in your Prisma schema and in other parts of your application.
