Create prisma client with extension without circular dependency

FOUND SOLUTION:
Prisma.defineExtension takes a callback which receives the client

---------------

If I have something like this:

const extension = Prisma.defineExtension({
  model: {
    user: {
      // @typescript-eslint/no-use-before-define: 'db' was used before it was defined
      example: async () => { 
return await db.user.findMany() }
    }  
  }
})

const getExtendedPrismaClient = () => {
  return new PrismaClient().$extends(extension)
}

type ExtendedPrismaClient = ReturnType<typeof getExtendedPrismaClient>

const globalForPrisma = globalThis as unknown as { db: ExtendedPrismaClient }

const db = globalForPrisma.db || getExtendedPrismaClient()

export default db;

if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production") {
  globalForPrisma.db = db
}


Essentially, I am asking how I can perform database operations before I have actually initialised the database.
