Drizzle Schema Modifications

This project uses Drizzle ORM with Neon Serverless Postgres.

Project Files

• Schema:

  db/schema.ts

• Config:

  drizzle.config.ts

• Connection:

  db/index.ts

Current Schema

// x_account_cache - Caches X account analysis
export const xAccountCache = pgTable('x_account_cache', {
  id: uuid('id').primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
  xHandle: text('x_handle').unique().notNull(),
  searchResponse: jsonb('search_response').notNull(),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow(),
  expiresAt: timestamp('expires_at', { withTimezone: true }).notNull(),
});

// usage_tracking - Tracks premium image quota
export const usageTracking = pgTable('usage_tracking', {
  id: uuid('id').primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
  userIdentifier: text('user_identifier').unique().notNull(),
  premiumImagesCount: integer('premium_images_count').default(0),
  lastResetAt: timestamp('last_reset_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow(),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow(),
  updatedAt: timestamp('updated_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow(),
});

Instructions

1. Adding a new table:

import { pgTable, uuid, text, timestamp, integer, index } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core';

export const newTable = pgTable('new_table', {
  id: uuid('id').primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
  // columns here
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow(),
}, (table) => [
  index('idx_name').on(table.column),  // optional indexes
]);

// Type exports
export type NewTable = typeof newTable.$inferSelect;
export type InsertNewTable = typeof newTable.$inferInsert;

2. Update db/index.ts to export the new table:

export { db } from './index';
export { xAccountCache, usageTracking, newTable } from './schema';

3. Apply schema changes:

   • Development:

     npm run db:push

     (direct push, no migration files)
   • Production:

     npm run db:generate

     then

     npm run db:migrate

4. Inspect database:

   npm run db:studio

   opens Drizzle Studio

Common Column Types

uuid('id').primaryKey().defaultRandom()
text('name').notNull()
text('email').unique()
integer('count').default(0)
boolean('active').default(true)
jsonb('data').notNull()
timestamp('created_at', { withTimezone: true }).defaultNow()

Examples

• "Add a feedback table" → Add table definition to

  db/schema.ts

  , export in

  db/index.ts

• "Add email column to usage" → Modify

  usageTracking

  in schema

Guardrails

• READ-ONLY by default - review changes before applying
• Never run

  db:push

  against production
• Always generate migrations for production changes
• Backup data before destructive migrations
• Confirm with user before running any db commands
• Add NOT NULL columns with defaults to avoid breaking existing rows
