This pull request improves the application's resilience to database connectivity issues by introducing a safe wrapper for all database operations in the dashboard. The main change is the use of the new safeDbOperation utility, which gracefully handles errors and displays a helpful message to the user if the database is not connected.

Error handling and resiliency improvements:

  • Added the safeDbOperation utility in prisma/db.ts to wrap database operations, returning fallback data and a user-friendly error message if the database connection fails or an exception occurs. (prisma/db.ts, prisma/db.tsR11-R40)
  • Updated the dashboard logic in app/page.tsx to use safeDbOperation for all ticket-related queries, ensuring that the UI responds gracefully to database errors. (app/page.tsx, [1] [2]
  • Implemented a user-facing error message in the dashboard that provides troubleshooting steps when the database is not connected, improving the developer and user experience. (app/page.tsx, app/page.tsxL19-R126)

Code organization:

  • Exported isDatabaseAvailable from prisma/db.ts to allow checking for database connectivity before attempting queries. (prisma/db.ts, prisma/db.tsR11-R40)

// Use a temporary PrismaClient instance for the availability check
const tempPrisma = new PrismaClient();
await tempPrisma.$queryRaw`SELECT 1`;

Creating a new PrismaClient instance for each availability check is inefficient and could lead to connection pool exhaustion. Consider reusing the existing prisma instance or implementing a connection pooling strategy for health checks.

Suggested change
// Use a temporary PrismaClient instance for the availability check
const tempPrisma = new PrismaClient();
await tempPrisma.$queryRaw`SELECT 1`;
await tempPrisma.$disconnect();
// Use the shared PrismaClient instance for the availability check
await prisma.$queryRaw`SELECT 1`;
// No need to disconnect the shared PrismaClient instance here
// (prisma.$disconnect() is handled on app shutdown)

The typeof window === "undefined" check is unnecessary in a server component. This code will always run on the server side, so the window check can be removed.

Suggested change

// Log detailed error server-side

console.error("Database error:", dbError);
