Database Schema

dichit-backend uses PostgreSQL 16 as its primary datastore, described entirely by prisma/schema.prisma. The schema is the single source of truth; migrations and the generated client are derived from it.

At a glance

  • 95 models, 91 enums, 341 indexes (grep -c on schema.prisma).
  • IDs are cuid()-style strings by default (e.g. User.id), amounts/balances use PostgreSQL Decimal, timestamps are DateTime with created_at / updated_at / optional soft-delete deleted_at.
  • Column names are snake_case via @map; Prisma fields are camelCase.

Core identity

  • User — platform identity, role (SUBSCRIBER/COMPANY/SUPERADMIN), profileStatus, accountType (incl. DEMO, APPLE_APP_REVIEW, INTERNAL_TEST).
  • UserAuthProvider — bound OAuth/SMS sign-in methods (PHONE_OTP, WHATSAPP_OTP, EMAIL_PASSWORD, GOOGLE, APPLE, META, LINKEDIN).
  • UserSession / UserLoginEvent — session + audit trail.
  • Subscriber / Nominee / SubscriberEmploymentDetails — KYC/profile data.

Programs, cycles, auctions

  • Program (chit program) → ProgramCycle (monthly cycles) → EnrolledSubscriber.
  • Auction holds auction state; AuctionBid + AuctionPrebid are the bidding records; AuctionBidActivitySequence/Event and AuctionActionLog are the event/audit stream that powers the WebSocket log and replay.
  • CycleWinner, CycleInvoice, CycleTransaction, GatewayPayload, Refund* form the billing and payout flow.

Notifications & engagement

  • NotificationTemplate → UserNotification → NotificationQueue (with NotificationEvent for delivery tracking).
  • Challenge, Campaign, FAQ, Banner, TrackedLink/TrackedLinkClick, WebsiteVisitor, Lead.

Auxiliary

  • AppVersion (release gates), SupportTicket, ReminderSchedule, BranchInvitation, DeletedUser, SentryGithubIssueMapping, SuperAdminFileUpload / CompanyFileUpload / SubscriberFileUpload.

Naming and conventions

  • Model name → table: Prisma @@map or default pluralisation; explicit @map("snake_case") on columns.
  • Timestamps: every mutable model has created_at, updated_at; soft-delete models add deleted_at.
  • Decimal money: Decimal fields (e.g. CycleInvoice.amount) are returned as strings by the API (Fastify bigint: 'string' serializer covers BigInt; Decimal is serialised by Prisma/JSON as string).
  • Consistency: adding a model means adding a matching domain entity (see development/folder-structure.md).

How to read the schema

Open it in an editor with Prisma support, or browse with:

pnpm studio:local     # Prisma Studio on local DB (needs docker + migrate)
