Input validation is being ignored when using increment functionality

[Huh-David]

Description and expected behavior
Taken from the examples in the docs I have created a Content model with a viewCount field.

model Content {
    id        Int      @id @default(autoincrement())
    name      String
    createdAt DateTime @default(now())
    owner     User     @relation(fields: [ownerId], references: [id])
    ownerId   Int
    viewCount Int      @default(0) @gte(0)
    type      String

    @@delegate(type)
}

The viewCount field has an input validator to check if its greater or equal to 0. When trying to create or update the content object, it will properly check (after regenerating the client) the viewCount to match this condition. When using the increment functionality on update, this validation does not happen.

await db.content.update({
       where: { id: contentId },
       data: {
           viewCount: {
               increment: incrementBy,
           },
       },
   });

Environment (please complete the following information):

• ZenStack version: 3.0.0-beta.24
• Database type: PostgreSQL

Additional context
Is this a known caveat of the Input Validation at ORM level?

Hi @Huh-David , thanks for filing this. Given the design of validation that it happens on the client side before data is sent to the database, there is no way to precisely know the field value after the incremental update; thus, the validation is turned off for such cases.

Maybe we add this to a FAQ some where? Btw, please file v3 bugs in the v3 repo moving forward. Thanks!
