serverless nextjs config needs official support/documentation

Bug description

Prisma doesn’t work out of the box with Nextjs and AWS serverless framework. https://github.com/prisma/prisma/issues/6032

@millsp proposed a solution inside the serverless config file: https://github.com/millsp/prisma-serverless-nextjs

# serverless.yml
    build:
      postBuildCommands:
        - PDIR=node_modules/.prisma/client/;
          LDIR=.serverless_nextjs/api-lambda/;
          if [ "$(ls -A $LDIR)" ]; then
            mkdir -p $LDIR$PDIR;
            cp "$PDIR"query-engine-rhel-* $LDIR$PDIR;
            cp "$PDIR"schema.prisma $LDIR$PDIR;
          fi;
        - PDIR=node_modules/.prisma/client/;
          LDIR=.serverless_nextjs/default-lambda/;
            if [ "$(ls -A $LDIR)" ]; then
              mkdir -p $LDIR$PDIR;
              cp "$PDIR"query-engine-rhel-* $LDIR$PDIR;
              cp "$PDIR"schema.prisma $LDIR$PDIR;
          fi;

The solution needs official support in prisma generate or a reference in the prisma docs.

I propose a prisma config like serverless: true that runs the above script automatically.

this is issue is solved. It doesn’t require these much of of code below postBuildCommands. It just required two lines of code in latest versions (next > 12 and prisma >= 4).

inputs:
     useServerlessTraceTarget: true

for older version (next 10, 11) (prisma 3.15)

you need to add below line in your next.config.js

target: 'experimental-serverless-trace'

reference issue

@jeremygottfried , I opened a new issue with prisma. But, I may probably solve it myself and post the solution.

But, your raised issue was very valid that it should have a proper document. Such fixes is not a good standard for using any plugin or library.
