fix(sdk): correctly handle mixin fields for delegate model inheritance

[ymc9]

Summary

• Fields inherited via a mixin type (with SomeMixin) on a delegate base model were not getting originModel set in the generated TS schema, causing the ORM to incorrectly include those fields in the sub-model's INSERT statement (e.g., DataText getting updatedOn), resulting in SqliteError: table X has no column named Y
• Introduces two shared helpers in model-utils.ts:
  • getOwnedFields(model) — returns all fields physically belonging to a model's table (own fields + mixin fields recursively)
  • getDelegateOriginModel(field, contextModel) — walks the base chain to find the delegate model that owns the field
• Replaces the previous logic in ts-schema-generator (which only checked field.$container directly) and refactors prisma-schema-generator to use the same helpers (removing isInheritedFromDelegate)

Test plan

• Regression test added: tests/regression/test/issue-2351.test.ts
• Full regression suite passes (124 tests)

Fixes #2351

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Corrected field inheritance so delegate-based models expose the proper originating fields and id defaults behave correctly.

• Refactor

  • Improved detection of which model a field originates from for more reliable schema and TypeScript generation.

• Tests

  • Added a regression test covering delegate models inheriting via mixin abstract types.

• Chores

PR Review Complete

This is a well-implemented fix for handling mixin fields in delegate model inheritance. The changes are focused, tested, and improve code organization while fixing the reported bug.

Code Quality & Architecture:

✅ Excellent Helper Functions (model-utils.ts:78-102)

• getOwnedFields(): Recursively collects all fields belonging to a model's table (own + mixin fields). Clean recursive implementation with proper reference checking.
• getDelegateOriginModel(): Walks the base chain to find which delegate model owns a field. Well-structured loop with clear logic.
• Both functions are pure, well-documented, and reusable.

✅ Clean Refactoring (prisma-schema-generator.ts:207, ts-schema-generator.ts:593)

• Replaced inline logic with shared helper functions
• Removed duplicate isInheritedFromDelegate() function in favor of unified approach
• More readable and maintainable code

Bug Fix Analysis:

✅ Addresses Root Cause
The issue was that mixin fields on delegate base models weren't getting originModel set correctly. The previous logic only checked field.$container directly, missing fields inherited through mixins. The new getDelegateOriginModel() function properly traverses the inheritance chain.

✅ Robust Test Coverage (issue-2351.test.ts)

• Comprehensive test case with the exact scenario from the issue
• Tests mixin inheritance (BaseEntity), delegate models (RoutineData), and concrete models (DataText)
• Verifies both creation and querying work correctly
• Includes access control testing

Security & Performance:

✅ No Security Concerns

• Pure functions with no side effects
• No external dependencies or unsafe operations
• Maintains existing access control patterns

✅ Performance Considerations

• Helper functions use efficient algorithms (O(n) traversal)
• Only used during code generation, not runtime
• Replaces more complex inline logic

Minor Suggestions:

1. Documentation Enhancement: Consider adding JSDoc examples showing usage patterns:

   /**
    * @example
    * // For: model DataText extends RoutineData (where RoutineData uses BaseEntity mixin)
    * // Returns: ['id', 'createdOn', 'updatedOn', 'isDeleted', 'isArchived', 'dataType', 'routineId'] 
    */

2. Edge Case Consideration: The recursive traversal in getOwnedFields() could theoretically hit circular references, though this would be a schema error. Current implementation is safe since it follows AST references.

Overall Assessment:
This is a high-quality fix that:

• ✅ Solves the specific bug reported in issue Polymorphic object does not work with Mixin abstract model #2351
• ✅ Improves code organization and reusability
• ✅ Has comprehensive test coverage
• ✅ Maintains backward compatibility
• ✅ Follows established patterns in the codebase

Recommendation: Approve and Merge 🚀

The implementation correctly handles the edge case of mixin fields in delegate model inheritance, making the ORM behavior consistent and preventing the SQLite errors mentioned in the issue.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds utilities to detect a field's delegate origin (including mixins), replaces a private inheritance helper with these utilities in Prisma and TS schema generators, sets an env var in testtools for Prisma commands, and adds a regression test for mixin+delegate polymorphism.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Model Utility Functions packages/sdk/src/model-utils.ts	Adds `getOwnedFields(model: DataModel
Prisma Schema Generator packages/sdk/src/prisma/prisma-schema-generator.ts	Replaces private isInheritedFromDelegate() with getDelegateOriginModel(); updates model/field generation conditionals and imports; removes the deprecated helper method.
TypeScript Schema Generator packages/sdk/src/ts-schema-generator.ts	Imports getDelegateOriginModel() and simplifies createDataFieldObject() to emit originModel only when an explicit delegate origin exists.
Test Tools packages/testtools/src/client.ts	Adds PRISMA_USER_CONSENT_FOR_DANGEROUS_AI_ACTION: 'true' to the environment when running npx prisma db push.
Regression Tests tests/regression/test/issue-2351.test.ts	Adds a regression test verifying querying a delegate model that inherits fields via a mixin abstract model (polymorphic/mixin interaction).

🐇 I hop through fields and mixins bright,
Sniffing which model gave each light,
Delegates point the path I trace,
Polymorphs find their rightful place,
Hooray — the schema's stitched just right! ✨

Test Failure Analysis & Fix

I've identified and fixed the test failure issue.

Todo List

• Check CI status to identify failing tests
• Analyze failure logs to understand root cause
• Provide recommendations for fixing the issues

Problem Found

The test was failing specifically on MySQL with this error:

Error: Data truncated for column 'dataType' at row 1

Root Cause: In the new regression test issue-2351.test.ts, the code was creating a DataText record without providing the required dataType field:

const created = await authDb.dataText.create({
    data: { textValue: 'hello', routineId: routine.id }, // Missing dataType!
});

The DataText model extends RoutineData, which has a required dataType enum field (TEXT | NUMBER). MySQL is stricter about enum validation than SQLite, causing the failure.

Fix Applied

I've updated the test to include the missing dataType field:

const created = await authDb.dataText.create({
    data: { textValue: 'hello', routineId: routine.id, dataType: 'TEXT' },
});

This fix has been committed and pushed to the fix/2351-delegate-mixin-fields branch. The tests should now pass on all database types (SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MySQL).

Next Steps

The CI will automatically run again with this fix. The test failure should be resolved, and all tests should now pass.

@claude wrong fix. The data type field is delegate discriminator and must not be passed explicitly. You need to change the enum values to match sub model names.

Fixed Delegate Discriminator Issue ✅

You were absolutely correct! I completely misunderstood how delegate discriminators work in ZenStack.

Todo List

• Understand the issue: dataType is a delegate discriminator, not a regular field
• Read the current test file and schema structure
• Analyze other delegate examples in the codebase
• Change enum values to match sub model names (DataText, DataNumber)
• Remove the incorrect explicit dataType field from test
• Commit and push the corrected fix

Changes Made

Root Cause: Delegate discriminator fields in ZenStack must have enum values that match the extending model names, not generic type descriptions.

Fixes Applied:

1. Updated enum values in issue-2351.test.ts:17-20:

   // Before (incorrect)
   enum DataType {
       TEXT
       NUMBER  
   }
   
   // After (correct)
   enum DataType {
       DataText
       DataNumber
   }

2. Removed explicit discriminator field in issue-2351.test.ts:65-67:

   // Before (incorrect - explicit discriminator)
   const created = await authDb.dataText.create({
       data: { textValue: 'hello', routineId: routine.id, dataType: 'TEXT' },
   });
   
   // After (correct - auto-set by delegate)
   const created = await authDb.dataText.create({
       data: { textValue: 'hello', routineId: routine.id },
   });

The delegate discriminator will now automatically use DataText when creating a DataText record, which matches the model name and should resolve the MySQL "Data truncated" error.
