26:T51e,Short answer: No official programmatic API is documented to start prisma dev (the local Prisma Postgres server) from code. What is available: - You can start it via the CLI: npx prisma dev. This launches a local Prisma Postgres instance you can connect to, and you can control ports/names via flags (e.g., --name, --port) ([Prisma CLI dev](); [Local development guide]()). - You can stop or remove local instances via CLI subcommands: prisma dev stop and prisma dev rm ([Prisma CLI dev]()). Related context: - Prisma is exploring/has demand for programmatic access for migrations/CLI, but there’s no documented stable library API for starting dev or running migrate from code. Users typically shell out to the CLI as a workaround ([Programmatic access discussions/issues](), [Run migrations by code (issue)]()). If you need to automate prisma dev today, invoke the CLI from your code (e.g., child_process/execa) and manage lifecycle with the available flags. The docs don’t provide an official Node API for this.27:T51e,Short answer: No official programmatic API is documented to start prisma dev (the local Prisma Postgres server) from code.
