Learn Mongodb, Nativescript and Prisma

Prisma is an open-source ORM. It consists of the following parts: 

- Prisma Client: Auto-generated and type-safe query builder
- Prisma Migrate: Migration system
- Prisma Studio: GUI to view and edit data in your database

Prisma Client can be used in any Node.js or TypeScript backend application (including serverless applications and microservices). This can be a REST API, a GraphQL API, a gRPC API, or anything else that needs a database.

In this course, you will learn how to initialize Prisma in a TypeScript Node project, use Prisma Client to create and find records, use Express to create data dynamically, and more! 



Prisma is a next-generation open-source ORM For Node.js and TypeScript that helps developers build faster and make fewer errors.

It supports the following databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, and more recently, MongoDB (Preview).

Prisma provides a complete toolkit:

- Prisma Client: Auto-generated and type-safe database client
- Prisma Migrate: Declarative data modeling and customizable migrations
- Prisma Studio: Modern UI to view and edit data

Databases are essential for any full-stack applications, but working with them is traditionally very difficult. Prisma is here to change that. It's a powerful database toolkit that helps us think in data itself - not SQL, not classes, just the data we care about in our apps.

In this series, we will learn how to leverage the power of Prisma to automatically generate a type-safe, autocomplete-ready, and efficient query builder, all based on a simple and easy-to-read schema. We will integrate all this good stuff into a Next.js project to complete a simple social network app.

In the end, you will be able to understand how Prisma works, and confidently start using Prisma in your own project.

MongoDB has a quite powerful aggregation framework that allows you to write data processing pipelines. Documents in the MongoDB collection go through a series of stages or a pipeline that transforms them into an aggregated result. In this short video series, you will learn how to write aggregations in MongoDB.

Tools like Firebase give you a powerful API that connects directly with your client apps. Though powerful, Firebase can be difficult when writing complex data to the database or querying for a complex data structure.

GraphQL, on the other hand, has a powerful API too and an easy Graph spec to query and write to your data source. Unlike Firebase, it doesn't come with a data persistence layer.

Prisma is an open source database layer for GraphQL projects. It serves as both an ORM and also hides the complexity of writing complex resolvers.

This lesson shows how, without a server, you can Firebase-like GraphQL database that your client can talk directly with.

Aggregation in MongoDB is really powerful and allows you to create solid pipelines to extract and transform data. This is an introductory video that aims to demonstrate the basics of aggregation — we will see how to create some basic pipeline to extract data using `$match` and manipulate the output using `$project` stages.

The aggregation stages/operators covered in this video are:

* [`$match`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/match/index.html)
* [`$project`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/project/index.html)
* [`$concat`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/concat/)

You can see the list of all the [available operators in the MongoDB docs](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/)


Find and Manipulate Data using Aggregation in MongoDB

In our last lesson, we learnt the basics of MongoDB aggregation and saw how we can [find and manipulate data](https://egghead.io/lessons/mongodb-find-and-manipulate-data-using-aggregation-in-mongodb). In this continuation, we will see how we can sort, skip and limit records during our aggregation stages.

The aggregation stages/operators covered in this video are:

* [`$sort`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sort/index.html)
* [`$skip`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/skip/index.html)
* [`$limit`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/limit/index.html)

You can see the list of all the [available operators in the MongoDB docs.](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/)

Sort, Skip and Limit Records in MongoDB Aggregation

Prisma makes database access easy with an auto-generated and type-safe query builder.

In this lesson, we will learn how to install all the necessary dependencies and set up Prisma for an existing npm project, with an empty PostgreSQL database running in the background. We will create our first Prisma data model in the schema, and use *Prisma Migrate* to map our data model into the database. 

Finally, we'll generate the *Prisma Client* into our `node_modules` directory, so later we can simply import and use the client tailored to our data models as a normal npm package in the project.

At the time of recording this lesson, *Prisma Migrate* is in an experimental state, so the extra flag `--experimental` is needed to perform the `save` and `up` commands.

Install and Set up Prisma for a New Project

Unlike the relational databases, MongoDB doesn't allow you to join collections using the simple `find` queries, but you can write the join queries using the aggregation framework. In this lesson, we learn how to join two collections to get the data in the format we want.

The aggregation operators that we cover in this video are:

- [`$lookup`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/lookup/index.html)
- [`$project`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/project/index.html)
- [`$arrayElemAt`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/arrayElemAt/index.html)

You can see the list of all the [available operators in the MongoDB docs.](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/)

Write Joins in MongoDB

In this lesson, we learn how to group documents in a collection using `$group` operator similar to `GROUP BY` in SQL. We also look at `$sum` operator and see how we can use it to count the number of documents as well as get sum of some field in our grouped results.

Here is the list of operators that we cover in this lesson:

* [`$group`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/group/index.html)
* [`$sum`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sum/index.html)
* [`$sort`](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sort/index.html)

You can see the list of all the [available operators in the MongoDB docs](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/).


Group By and Sum in MongoDB

[In our last lesson](https://egghead.io/lessons/mongodb-group-by-and-sum-in-mongodb?pl=mongodb-aggregation-framework-3e5d), we saw how we can use `$group` operator to simulate `GROUP BY` operations that you might be aware from SQL. A minor gimmick with `$group` is that it only works with the scalar field values and not arrays. There might be times when you would want to group by some array fields; in this lesson, we learn how to do that using `$unwind` operator

Here is the list of operators that we cover in this lesson:

- [$unwind](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/unwind/index.html)
- [$group](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/group/index.html)
- [$sort](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sort/index.html)
- [$limit](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/limit/index.html)

You can see the list of all the [available operators in the MongoDB docs](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/).


Perform Group Operations on Array Fields in MongoDB

In this lesson, we will write a code snippet which creates a new entry in the database. We will import and use the Prisma Client that we previously generated by running the command `npx prisma generate` to perform this query. 

Thanks to type-safety, we can now directly catch mismatched data field types while we are coding, drastically reducing the chance of having bugs in the code.

Tip - When in doubt, you can always use the key combination `ctrl-space` to invoke the autocomplete feature of VS Code. This is also a huge benefit made possible by Prisma's type-safety, and is super handy for exploring the Prisma Client API.

Create an entry in the database with Prisma Client

Apart from creating entries, it's also very intuitive to read, update, or delete data from the database with Prisma Client.

In this lesson, we will explore the [Prisma Client API](https://www.prisma.io/docs/reference/tools-and-interfaces/prisma-client/crud) for `findMany`, `findOne`, `updateMany`, `deleteMany` and so on.

Notice that since all these methods are tailored to the schema that we defined earlier, VS Code is aware of what is valid and is able to prompt us with helpful autocomplete options, making it much easier to explore the Prisma Client API.
