Step 1 - Install packages

npm i drizzle-orm postgres
npm i -D drizzle-kit

yarn add drizzle-orm postgres
yarn add -D drizzle-kit

pnpm add drizzle-orm postgres
pnpm add -D drizzle-kit

bun add drizzle-orm postgres
bun add -D drizzle-kit

Step 2 - Initialize the driver and make a query

import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/postgres-js'

const db = drizzle(process.env.DATABASE_URL);

const allUsers = await db.select().from(...);

If you need to provide your existing driver:

import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/postgres-js'
import postgres from 'postgres'

const client = postgres(process.env.DATABASE_URL)
const db = drizzle({ client });

const allUsers = await db.select().from(...);
