How to update composite type model in Prisma? - prisma

Question

I am trying to implement updation in a composite-type model in Prisma.
Here is my data structure:
{
"name":"toy",
"data":{
"sports":{
"currentState":"false"
},
"business":{
"currentState":"false"
}
}
}
Here I my code for updating:
const updatedSource = await prisma.sources.update({
where: {
name: 'toy'
},
data: {
data: {
sports: {
currentState: "true"
}
}
},
})
Here is my schema file
type SourcesData {
business SourcesDataState
sports SourcesDataState
}
type SourcesDataState {
currentState StateData[]
}
type StateData {
title String
url String
}
model sources {
id String #id #default(auto()) #map("_id") #db.ObjectId
data SourcesData
name String #unique
}
When I execute the above logic I get error as:Unknown arg `sports` in data.data.sports for type SourcesDataUpdateEnvelopeInput. Did you mean `set`? Available args:
Please guide what I am missing while updating.

Answer 1

The TypeScript should be pretty helpful in telling you what arguments you can or cannot use when interacting with Prisma. I strongly recommend using a code editor that includes TypeScript typehinting/Intellisense so you can see errors and warnings about your TypeScript usage as you are developing with Prisma.
Where it says Available args in your error, that should tell you the arguments that prisma.sports.update actually expects. If I had to guess (this may not be accurate, but you HAVE to look at the TypeScript to know exactly what it's supposed to be), it should look something like this:
const updatedSource = await prisma.sources.update({
where: {
name: 'toy'
},
data: {
data: {
update: {
sports: {
update: {
currentState: {
set: ["true"]
}
}
}
}
}
},
})
I strongly recommend reading Prisma's documentation on updating related/nested records: https://www.prisma.io/docs/concepts/components/prisma-client/relation-queries#update-a-specific-related-record

let typeEncounter = await prisma.encounter.update({
where: {
id
},
data: {
[property]: {
update: {
[subProperty] : value,
},
},
},
}
)
I get a receive the error Unknown arg update in data..update
I have seen some people mention nesting updates but no official documentation and can't seem to get this straightened out. Anybody have any ideas? The property and subproperty are largely irrelevant here, just examples. The code works fine aside from updated a subfield of a type (mongoDB prisma). Without the update the entire type gets overwritten rather than the selected field.
