Generating the prisma client during a setuptools build

[giido]

I'm having troubles generating a Prisma client during a setuptools package.

I have a Python scrapy project where I'm using the scrapyd-client (scrapyd-deploy command) to package the project into an egg that is then deployed to my target server. However, during the build process, I'm constantly getting the error:

...
raise RuntimeError(\nRuntimeError: The Client hasn't been generated yet, you must run prisma generate before you can use the client.\nSee https://prisma-client-py.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/troubleshooting/#client-has-not-been-generated-yet\

My current approaches to solving this problem have been:

1. Change the output path in my prisma.schema to prisma/client.
2. Add the path to my package_data:
   include_package_data=True, package_data={ '': ['*.prisma', 'prisma/*'] }
3. Add the directories to a MANIFEST.in in the root of my project:
   include prisma/schema.prisma recursive-include prisma/client *
4. Try to generate the client during setup.py (not overly familiar with how this works):

from setuptools import setup, find_packages
from setuptools.command.install import install
import subprocess

class CustomInstall(install):
    def run(self):
        try:
            # Run prisma generate
            subprocess.check_call(['prisma', 'generate'])
        except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
            print("Error during Prisma client generation:", e)
            raise
        install.run(self)
        
setup(
    name         = 'project',
    version      = '1.0',
    packages     = find_packages(),
    entry_points = {'scrapy': ['settings = scrapers.settings']},
    include_package_data=True,
    package_data={
        '': ['*.prisma', 'prisma/client/*']
    }
)

Does anyone have any experience packaging a prisma client as part of a scrapy project? Or have any pointers on how I can include the client or generate the client during build or runtime?
