Ability to skip database url input while scaffolding a new project

[anasmohammed361]

I have been playing around with payload lately , and i use docker for my local environment setup (databases and other necessary services for local development ) , everysingle time , i am forced to find an alternate solution when creating a new payload app , because payload requires an active database url which runs its migrations if necessary , It would be very convenient if there was a way to skip this process on project scaffolding .

When you create a new Payload app with create-payload-app, it doesn't connect. I'm guessing you're talking about during development. There is a config setting for that which you could set an env variable for.

Take a look at disableConnect.

Does that solve this issue for you?

How can we do this in v3 beta?
