@RobertCraigie Can you clarify the purposes of the models defined in types.py and those defined in models.py?
After a little more digging, I have the feeling that the composite types I am injecting in types.py a7f6263 should be injected in their own file composite_types.py.

thanks for working on this!!

Ah yeah models.py is just for the models defined in the schema and types.py is for every other auxilary type we need to generate, e.g. the update params types.

Other types that come directly from the schema have their own file as well, e.g. enums.py so outputting to a separate prisma/composite_types.py file sounds good to me!

Thanks for the clarification. I think that's what I finally did, so it's perfect.

FYI, I just managed to pass the test that validates if we can create and find a record with a composite type. Next I'm going to check if there are any specifications about Prisma composite types, or determine them if there aren't, write the tests and I think we'll be ready for a review.

In fact, I don't know if I really need to write tests specifically for MongoDB, since the query is handled by the Prisma engine after all. Maybe it is better to write tests for the query builder?
What do you think about this?

[RobertCraigie]

yeah the tests you write for this should just treat composite types as a DB feature and then you'd write tests for the client query methods, e.g. see how the enum tests are written

• prisma-client-py/databases/utils.py

  'enum',

• prisma-client-py/databases/constants.py

  Line 97 in 05808fc

  'enum': ['test_enum.py', 'test_arrays/test_enum.py'],

The problem is that there are too many differences between relational databases and MongoDB when using Prisma. This led me to create a new tests_mongodb.
However, since tests for operations like create and find are already implemented for relational databases—and both relational databases and MongoDB rely on the same Prisma Query Engine—I’m questioning whether separate tests for MongoDB are truly necessary. (the MongoDB tests work, but I am not sure it is relevant)

Would it make more sense to focus on unit tests for composite types in test_builder.py instead?
