npm install hapi-sequelizejs
Simply pass in your sequelize instance and a few basic options and voila. Options accepts a single object
or an array for multiple dbs.
``javascript`
server.register([
{
plugin: require('hapi-sequelizejs'),
options: [
{
name: 'dbname', // identifier
models: [__dirname + '/server/models/*/.js'], // paths/globs to model files
ignoredModels: [__dirname + '/server/models/*/.js'], // OPTIONAL: paths/globs to ignore files
sequelize: new Sequelize(config, opts), // sequelize instance
sync: true, // sync models - default false
forceSync: false, // force sync (drops tables) - default false
},
],
},
]);
A model should export a function that returns a Sequelize model definition (http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/models-definition/).
`javascript
module.exports = function (sequelize, DataTypes) {
const Category = sequelize.define('Category', {
name: DataTypes.STRING,
rootCategory: DataTypes.BOOLEAN,
});
return Category;
};
`
Using the sequelize model instance, define a method called associate, that is a function, and receives as parameter all models defined.
`javascript
module.exports = function (sequelize, DataTypes) {
const Category = sequelize.define('Category', {
name: DataTypes.STRING,
rootCategory: DataTypes.BOOLEAN,
});
Category.associate = function (models) {
models.Category.hasMany(models.Product);
};
return Category;
};
`
Each registration adds a DB instance to the server.plugins['hapi-sequelizejs'] object with the
name option as the key.
`javascript
function DB(sequelize, models) {
this.sequelize = sequelize;
this.models = models;
}
// something like this
server.plugins['hapi-sequelizejs'][opts.name] = new DB(opts.sequelize, models);
`
#### getDb(name)
The request object gets decorated with the method getDb. This allows you to easily grab a
DB instance in a route handler. If you have multiple registrations pass the name of the one
you would like returned or else the single or first registration will be returned.
`javascript`
handler(request, reply) {
const db1 = request.getDb('db1');
console.log(db1.sequelize);
console.log(db1.models);
}
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.
##### db.getModel('User')
Returns single model that matches the passed argument or null if the model doesn't exist.
##### db.getModels()
Returns all models on the db instance
#### getModels(dbName?)
Returns all models registered in the given db's name or the models from the first registered db instance if no name is given to the function.
`javascript`
handler(request, reply) {
const models = request.getModels('db1');
...
}
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.
#### getModel(dbName, modelName?)
Return the model to the db's name instance. You may give only the model name to the function, if it's the case, it returns the model from the first registered db instance.
`javascript`
handler(request, reply) {
const myModel = request.getModel('db1', 'myModel');
...
}
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${modelName} model
> If there isn't a model for the given name, an Error is thrown: .
---
To access the dbs intances without using the request object you may do this:
`javascript`
const instances = require('hapi-sequelizejs').instances;
#### instance.dbs
Returns an Object with all instances registered.
`javascript`
{
[db.name]: db.instance
}
`javascript
const instances = require('hapi-sequelizejs').instances;
const dbs = instances.dbs;
dbs.myDb.getModel('User');
`
#### getDb(name?)
Returns the db instance for the given name or the first registered db instance if no name is given to the function.
`javascript
const instances = require('hapi-sequelizejs').instances;
const myDb = instances.getDb('myDb');
const firstRegisteredDb = instances.getDb();
`
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.
#### getModels(dbName?)
Returns all models registered in the given db's name or the models from the first registered db instance if no name is given to the function.
`javascript
const instances = require('hapi-sequelizejs').instances;
const myDbModels = instances.getModels('myDb');
const firstRegisteredDbModels = instances.getModels();
`
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.
#### getModel(dbName, modelName?)
Return the model to the db's name instance. You may give only the model name to the function, if it's the case, it returns the model from the first registered db instance.
`javascript
const instances = require('hapi-sequelizejs').instances;
const myDbMyModel = instances.getModel('myDb', 'myModel');
const firstRegisteredDbMyModel = instances.getModel('myModel');
`
> If there isn't a db instance for the given name or no registered db instance, an Error is thrown: hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${dbName} database instance.hapi-sequelizejs cannot find the ${modelName} model`.
> If there isn't a model for the given name, an Error is thrown:
