HasMany

Extends:

One-to-many association

In the API reference below, add the name of the association to the method, e.g. for User.hasMany(Project) the getter will be user.getProjects(). If the association is aliased, use the alias instead, e.g. User.hasMany(Project, { as: 'jobs' }) will be user.getJobs().

See:

Model.hasMany

public async add(sourceInstance: Model, targetInstances: Model | Model[] | string[] | string | number[] | number, options: object): Promise source

Associate one or more target rows with this. This method accepts a Model / string / number to associate a single row, or a mixed array of Model / string / numbers to associate multiple rows.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
sourceInstance	Model		the source instance
targetInstances	Model \| Model[] \| string[] \| string \| number[] \| number	optional	A single instance or primary key, or a mixed array of persisted instances or primary keys
options	object	optional	Options passed to `target.update`.

Return:

Promise

public async count(instance: Model, options: object): Promise<number> source

Count everything currently associated with this, using an optional where clause.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
instance	Model		the source instance
options	object	optional	find & count options
options.where	object	optional	An optional where clause to limit the associated models
options.scope	string \| boolean	optional	Apply a scope on the related model, or remove its default scope by passing false

Return:

Promise<number>

public async create(sourceInstance: Model, values: object, options: object): Promise source

Create a new instance of the associated model and associate it with this.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
sourceInstance	Model		source instance
values	object	optional	values for target model instance
options	object	optional	Options passed to `target.create`

Return:

Promise

public async get(instances: Model | Array<Model>, options: object): Promise<Array<Model>> source

Get everything currently associated with this, using an optional where clause.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
instances	Model \| Array<Model>		source instances
options	object	optional	find options
options.where	object	optional	An optional where clause to limit the associated models
options.scope	string \| boolean	optional	Apply a scope on the related model, or remove its default scope by passing false
options.schema	string	optional	Apply a schema on the related model

Return:

Promise<Array<Model>>

See:

Model.findAll for a full explanation of options

public async has(sourceInstance: Model, targetInstances: Model | Model[] | string[] | string | number[] | number, options: object): Promise source

Check if one or more rows are associated with this.

Params:

Return:

Promise

public async set(sourceInstance: Model, targetInstances: Model | Model[] | string[] | string | number[] | number, options: object): Promise source

Set the associated models by passing an array of persisted instances or their primary keys. Everything that is not in the passed array will be un-associated

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
