Prisma 8 support for `prismaIntegration`
@chargome is already working on this.
Since Sep 9, 2026.
Assessment
This issue has not been assessed yet.
Description
Prisma 8 ("Prisma Next", @prisma/orm-postgres, currently 8.0.0-rc.8) ships no tracing surface. It never reads the global PRISMA_INSTRUMENTATION helper, so prismaIntegration is inert. Only raw pg spans from postgresIntegration remain: one flat db span per statement, plus Prisma's marker-verification and BEGIN/COMMIT housekeeping queries as siblings. The v7 span tree (prisma:client:operation with model/method, serialize, connect, nested db_query) is gone.
Goal: roughly the same spans on Prisma 8 as on v7.
Approach: instrument via orchestrion, like the other server-utils integrations. No user code needed, works with the runtime loader hook and the bundler plugins.
- Patch the
CollectionImplmethods (create,createAll,upsert,update,updateAll,delete,deleteAll,all,first,count,aggregate) in@prisma/orm-family-sql/dist/orm-client.mjsforprisma:client:operation(originauto.db.prisma,model/methodattributes). - Patch
execute(plan, options)on the runtime base class in@prisma/orm-family-sql/dist/runtime.mjsso thepgquery spans nest under the operation. The plan carriesmeta.laneand annotations. - No
serializespan.connectonly if the lazy pool creation in@prisma/orm-postgres/dist/runtime.mjsis patchable cleanly. - Wire it through
prismaIntegrationso@sentry/nodeand@sentry/cloudflare/nodejs_compatstay the entry points.
Scope:
- Orchestrion config + channel subscriber for the above.
- Extend
dev-packages/node-integration-tests/suites/tracing/prisma-orm-v8(currently pins the inert behaviour) to assert the v7-shaped tree. - Docs:
prismaIntegrationJSDoc and Sentry docs say "v6 and v7"; add v8.
Risks / constraints:
- Patch points live in
@prisma/orm-family-sql, a transitive dependency. The two files are unhashed, butversionRangemust be pinned tightly and revisited at 8.0 stable. .all()returns a thenable that only runs the query when awaited; check theAutokind's promise handling against that shape.- Prisma's marker-verification and
BEGIN/COMMITstatements will nest under the operation span, unlike v7. - v8 CLI needs Node ≥22.18;
DateTimecolumns decode toTemporal(global only on Node 26).
