Generator: `output` is relative to `./prisma`

See original GitHub issue

If you have a generator in your schema.prisma like this:

generator testutils {
  provider = "./node_modules/prisma-test-utils/dist/generator.js"
  output = "./node_modules/@generated/prisma-test-utils"
}

The output is actually generated in ./prisma/node_modules/@generated/prisma-test-utils:

✔ Generated Prisma Test Utils to .\prisma\node_modules\@generated\prisma-test-utils in 3.95s

That was unexpected to me.

Changing output to use ../node_modules... fixes the problem.

(Could potentially also be the fault of the generator I am trying to use.)

This still happens in 2.6.0-dev.61. The output still uses the prisma directory as a root.

Ok, it is indeed relative to schema.prisma location. I just tried that out.

We don’t document whether it is relative to schema or not: https://www.prisma.io/docs/reference/api-reference/prisma-schema-reference#fields-1
