Instructions

When working with PostgreSQL and Drizzle ORM:

1. •

   Schema Management

   • •Define tables in src/db/schema.ts
   • •Use npm run db:generate to create migrations
   • •Apply migrations with npm run db:migrate
   • •Use npm run db:push for quick schema updates
2. •

   Database Queries

   • •Import db from src/db
   • •Use Drizzle's select() with table references
   • •Implement proper joins for related data
   • •Add indexes for performance optimization
3. •

   User Preferences

   • •Use user_preferences table for liked content
   • •Use user_dislikes for content to exclude
   • •Use user_people for favorite actors/directors
   • •Always include user ID in queries
4. •

   Performance

   • •Add indexes on frequently queried columns
   • •Use explain() to analyze query performance
   • •Implement pagination for large result sets
   • •Consider caching for frequently accessed data

Examples

Creating a new table:

import { pgTable, serial, text, timestamp } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'

export const newTable = pgTable('new_table', {
  id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
  name: text('name').notNull(),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at').defaultNow(),
})

Querying user preferences:

import { db, userPreferences } from '@/db'
import { eq } from 'drizzle-orm'

const preferences = await db.select()
  .from(userPreferences)
  .where(eq(userPreferences.userId, userId))

Running migration:

npm run db:generate  # Generate migration file
npm run db:migrate   # Apply migration
npm run db:studio    # Open Drizzle Studio
