Omitting Fields with omit

The omit parameter allows you to exclude specific fields from the result set. This is useful when you want to return most fields but intentionally hide certain ones (e.g., passwords, tokens).

• Accepts an associative array where each key is the field name and the value is true.
• If no select is provided, omit is merged with all default model fields and removes the specified ones.
• If select is used, omit overrides it and removes matching keys from the final output.
• Cannot be used to omit fields from related models included via include.

Example Usage: Omitting Fields

use Lib\Prisma\Classes\Prisma;

$prisma = Prisma::getInstance();
$users = $prisma->user->findMany([
    'omit' => [
        'password' => true,
        'authToken' => true
    ]
]);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($users);
echo "</pre>";

Example Usage: Combining select with omit

$users = $prisma->user->findMany([
    'select' => [
        'id' => true,
        'name' => true,
        'email' => true,
        'password' => true
    ],
    'omit' => [
        'password' => true
    ]
]);

Best Practices

• Use omit to remove sensitive fields like password, authToken, or system metadata.
• Apply omit when returning full model objects but want fine control over exclusions.
• If you're using select, remember that omit will still apply and remove matching fields.
• Do not use omit to filter nested fields inside include; it only affects the root-level model.
