I’m using Prisma and Vercel. Prisma dynamically generates the Prisma client, but Vercel caches the old client and doesn’t rebuild it unless I log in to Vercel and click "redeploy" which forces it to reinstall all the packages.
Is there any way to force this one package to just rebuild every time I push to GitHub, so that Vercel won’t use the cached version? I noticed that if I change the package version, it will rebuild, but that’s a pretty big hack. Is there some way to flag it to rebuild every time?
"@prisma/client": "3.8.0" // some special flag to prevent this from getting cached?
>Solution :
What command are you using to build the app?
Recommended approach is to use this one:
// package.json scripts section
"vercel-build": "prisma generate && prisma migrate deploy && next build",
It will generate new prisma client and definitions, apply migrations and then build the app for production.
More info in the docs as always
