npx prisma generate with go client and multi-stage build with alpine is not working

[steebchen]

If you:

• invoke the Go client generation using NodeJS / the JS client (npx prisma generate), and
• use docker with a multi-stage build, and
• use an alpine-based (or the scratch) image as your last stage

the correct query engine might not be detected due to differences in the Prisma engine binary handling implementation in Go vs. JS.

Setting

ENV PRISMA_CLI_BINARY_TARGETS="linux-musl-openssl-3.0.x"

in your schema.prisma before running prisma generate should fix the issue. You would need to make sure the OpenSSL version matches the one on whatever alpine version you are using.
