Prisma environment variables

This document describes different environment variables and their use cases.

Prisma Client

`NO_COLOR`

NO_COLOR if truthy will activate the colorless setting for error formatting and strip colors from error messages.

See Formatting via environment variables for more information.

Prisma Studio

`BROWSER`

BROWSER is for Prisma Studio to force which browser it should be open in, if not set it will open in the default browser.

BROWSER=firefox prisma studio --port 5555

Alternatively you can set this when starting Studio from the CLI as well:

prisma studio --browser firefox

See Studio documentation for more information.
