Drizzle ORM for Cloudflare D1

Status: Production Ready ✅ Last Updated: 2025-12-14 Latest Version: drizzle-orm@0.44.7, drizzle-kit@0.31.7 Dependencies: cloudflare-d1, cloudflare-worker-base

Quick Start (10 Minutes)

1. Install Drizzle

bash

bun add drizzle-orm drizzle-kit

2. Configure Drizzle Kit

Create

drizzle.config.ts

:

typescript

import { defineConfig } from 'drizzle-kit';

export default defineConfig({
  schema: './src/db/schema.ts',
  out: './migrations',
  dialect: 'sqlite',
  driver: 'd1-http',
  dbCredentials: {
    accountId: process.env.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID!,
    databaseId: process.env.CLOUDFLARE_DATABASE_ID!,
    token: process.env.CLOUDFLARE_D1_TOKEN!,
  },
});

3. Define Schema

Create

src/db/schema.ts

:

typescript

import { sqliteTable, text, integer } from 'drizzle-orm/sqlite-core';
import { relations } from 'drizzle-orm';

export const users = sqliteTable('users', {
  id: integer('id').primaryKey({ autoIncrement: true }),
  email: text('email').notNull().unique(),
  name: text('name').notNull(),
  createdAt: integer('created_at', { mode: 'timestamp' }).$defaultFn(() => new Date()),
});

export const posts = sqliteTable('posts', {
  id: integer('id').primaryKey({ autoIncrement: true }),
  title: text('title').notNull(),
  content: text('content').notNull(),
  authorId: integer('author_id')
    .notNull()
    .references(() => users.id, { onDelete: 'cascade' }),
});

export const usersRelations = relations(users, ({ many }) => ({
  posts: many(posts),
}));

4. Generate & Apply Migrations

bash

bunx drizzle-kit generate                           # Generate SQL
bunx wrangler d1 migrations apply my-database --local   # Apply local
bunx wrangler d1 migrations apply my-database --remote  # Apply prod

5. Query in Worker

typescript

import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/d1';
import { users } from './db/schema';
import { eq } from 'drizzle-orm';

export default {
  async fetch(request: Request, env: { DB: D1Database }): Promise<Response> {
    const db = drizzle(env.DB);
    const allUsers = await db.select().from(users).all();
    return Response.json(allUsers);
  },
};

Critical Rules

Always Do

Rule	Why
Use `drizzle-kit generate` for migrations	Never write SQL manually
Test migrations locally first	`--local` before `--remote`
Use `.get()` for single results	Returns first row or undefined
Use `db.batch()` for transactions	D1 doesn't support SQL BEGIN/COMMIT
Use `integer` with `mode: 'timestamp'` for dates	D1 has no native date type
Use `.$defaultFn()` for dynamic defaults	Not `.default()` for functions

Never Do

Rule	Why
Use SQL `BEGIN TRANSACTION`	D1 requires batch API (Error #1)
Mix `drizzle-kit migrate` and `wrangler apply`	Use Wrangler only
Use `drizzle-kit push` for production	Use `generate` + `apply`
Commit credentials in drizzle.config.ts	Use env vars
Use `.default()` for function calls	Use `.$defaultFn()` instead

Top 5 Critical Errors


db.batch([...])
.references(() => users.id, { onDelete: 'cascade' })
wrangler.jsonc
import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/d1'
InferSelectModel<typeof users>

#	Error	Solution
1	`D1_ERROR: Cannot use BEGIN TRANSACTION`	Use `db.batch([...])` instead of `db.transaction()`
2	`FOREIGN KEY constraint failed`	Define cascading: `.references(() => users.id, { onDelete: 'cascade' })`
3	`env.DB is undefined`	Ensure binding in `wrangler.jsonc` matches `env.DB`
4	`No such module "wrangler"`	Use `import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/d1'`
5	`Type instantiation excessively deep`	Use `InferSelectModel<typeof users>` for explicit types

See:

references/error-catalog.md

for all 12 errors with complete solutions.

Common Patterns Summary

Pattern	Use Case	Template
CRUD Operations	Basic database operations	`templates/basic-queries.ts`
Relations & Joins	Nested queries, manual joins	`templates/relations-queries.ts`
Batch Operations	Transactions (D1 batch API)	`templates/transactions.ts`
Schema Design	Naming, indexes, soft deletes	`references/schema-patterns.md`

Configuration Summary

File	Purpose	Template
`drizzle.config.ts`	Drizzle Kit configuration	`templates/drizzle.config.ts`
`wrangler.jsonc`	D1 binding setup	`references/wrangler-setup.md`
`package.json`	npm scripts for migrations	`templates/package.json`

npm scripts:

json

{
  "db:generate": "drizzle-kit generate",
  "db:migrate:local": "wrangler d1 migrations apply my-database --local",
  "db:migrate:remote": "wrangler d1 migrations apply my-database --remote"
}

Migration Workflow

Step	Command	Notes
1. Edit schema	Edit `src/db/schema.ts`	Make changes
2. Generate	`npm run db:generate`	Creates SQL migration
3. Test local	`npm run db:migrate:local`	Verify locally
4. Deploy code	`npm run deploy`	Push to Cloudflare
5. Apply prod	`npm run db:migrate:remote`	Apply migration

See:

references/migration-workflow.md

for complete workflow.

TypeScript Type Inference

typescript

import { InferSelectModel, InferInsertModel } from 'drizzle-orm';
import { users } from './db/schema';

export type User = InferSelectModel<typeof users>;
export type NewUser = InferInsertModel<typeof users>;
