Getting User from the Task entity

How do you get the user from the Task entity when using "user User @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id])"

Hi @James. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To get the user from the Task entity when using the relation you described, you can use Prisma's query capabilities. Here's how you can do it: 1. When querying for a Task, you can include the related User by using the include option:

const taskWithUser = await prisma.task.findUnique({
  where: { id: taskId },
  include: { user: true }
})

const taskWithUser = await prisma.task.findUnique({
  where: { id: taskId },
  include: { user: true }
})

This will return the Task with its associated User object. 2. In your Wasp operations (queries or actions), you can access the User through the context.entities object:

export const getTaskWithUser = async (args, context) => {
  if (!context.user) {
    throw new HttpError(401)
  }
  return context.entities.Task.findUnique({
    where: { id: args.taskId, user: { id: context.user.id } },
    include: { user: true }
  })
}

export const getTaskWithUser = async (args, context) => {
  if (!context.user) {
    throw new HttpError(401)
  }
  return context.entities.Task.findUnique({
    where: { id: args.taskId, user: { id: context.user.id } },
    include: { user: true }
  })
}

This example shows how to get a task with its associated user, while also ensuring that the current user has permission to access this task Updating Operations to Check Authentication (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/tutorial/auth#updating-operations-to-check-authentication). Remember that when you're working with the User entity in your operations, you should always check for authentication first, as shown in the example above. Also, note that Wasp automatically includes the user object in the context of your operations when authentication is enabled, so you can access the current user's information directly through context.user Using the context.user object (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/auth/overview#using-the-contextuser-object). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @James, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist: Perhaps try again in 15mins?
