prisma skips environment variable loading with config file?
is there a way to pass the environment variables in the config file https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/reference/prisma-config-reference instead of using dotenv(). this originally automatically worked specifying the env varible in schema.prisma but breaks with the config file

You decided to hold for human wisdom. We'll chime in soon! Meanwhile,
#ask-ai is there if you need a quick second opinion.Hey!
If I understand correctly you would like to use env variables in prisma config file but would not like to use dotenv?
yep.
@ryanisaboi1 I faced the same situation that in my production we don't use dotenv its all IAM
so what i did is just installed dotenv & import 'dotenv/config' at prisma.config.ts top level, that will help the env varible to load from .env file at our root ( which is not pushing to production) only for developement purpose. at production since there is no .env file it takes the process.env varibles from IAM
Thanks for sharing your solution 👍
