Set foreign keys directly with uncheckedScalarInputs (Preview)

We now support writing foreign keys (also known as relation scalars) directly with the uncheckedScalarInputs preview feature.

Consider this sample Prisma schema:

generator client {
  provider        = "prisma-client-js"
  previewFeatures = ["uncheckedScalarInputs"]
}

model User {
  id    Int    @id @default(autoincrement())
  posts Post[]
}

model Post {
  id       Int  @id @default(autoincrement())
  authorId Int
  author   User @relation(fields: [authorId], references: [id])
}

Instead of using connect when creating a new Post record to wire up a relation with a User record, you can now directly set the authorId value:

await prisma.post.create({
  data: {
    // You can now set the foreign key directly...
    authorId: 1,
    // ... or connect the relationship...
    // author: {
    //   connect: {
    //     id: 1
    //   }
    // }
    // ... but not both at the same time
  },
});
