You opted for speed from this bot. Let's conjure up an answer right now! To allow users to add an array of data using a form with Prisma, you can use the createMany method or nested writes, depending on your specific use case and data model. Here are a couple of approaches based on the information from the knowledge sources: 1. Using createMany: If you want to create multiple records of the same type at once, you can use the createMany method. However, note that createMany doesn't support nested writes for relations. Here's an example:
const posts = await prisma.post.createMany({
data: [
{ title: 'Post 1', content: 'Content 1' },
{ title: 'Post 2', content: 'Content 2' },
// ... more posts
],
});
const posts = await prisma.post.createMany({
data: [
{ title: 'Post 1', content: 'Content 1' },
{ title: 'Post 2', content: 'Content 2' },
// ... more posts
],
});
2. Using nested writes: For more complex scenarios involving relations, you can use nested writes. This allows you to create related records in a single operation. Here's an example:
const user = await prisma.user.update({
where: { email },
data: {
posts: {
createMany: {
data: [
{ title: 'Post 1', content: 'Content 1' },
{ title: 'Post 2', content: 'Content 2' },
// ... more posts
]
}
}
},
});
const user = await prisma.user.update({
where: { email },
data: {
posts: {
createMany: {
data: [
{ title: 'Post 1', content: 'Content 1' },
{ title: 'Post 2', content: 'Content 2' },
// ... more posts
]
}
}
},
});
This approach creates multiple posts for an existing user in one operation. Github Issue: How to directly pass a list[] in createMany provides more context on these approaches. To implement this in your application: 1. Create a form in your frontend that allows users to input multiple entries. 2. Collect the form data and structure it as an array of objects. 3. Send this data to your backend. 4. In your backend, use one of the above methods to create the records in the database using Prisma. Remember to validate and sanitize user input appropriately before saving it to the database.
