OpenRecord：TypeError：User.create 不是 function

Question

ORM OpenRecord

I'm getting an error ( TypeError: User.create is not a function ) when I do the following:

await User.create(req.body.data)

When I log User I get this: [Function: User]

Database config:

//config/database/openRecord.js
/** more code above */
let store = new Store({
    database, 
    user, 
    password, 
    host,
    autoConnect: true,
    autoAttributes: true,
    models: require("../../app/models/models")
}); 

Models:

//app/models/models.js
module.exports = [
    require("./user")
]

Model:

//app/models/user.js
const Store = require('openrecord/store/mysql');

class User extends Store.BaseModel {
    static definition(){
        this.validatePresenceOf(
            'first_name', 'last_name', 'email', 'password'
        );

        this.validatesConfirmationOf('password');
        this.validateFormatOf('email', 'email');
    }

    fullName(){
        return `${this.first_name} ${this.last_name}`
    }
}

module.exports = User;

Why is it throwing an error when I've clearly defined my object the correct way?

Answer 1

Two small typos are validatePresenceOf (should be validate s PresenceOf) and validateFormatOf (should be validate s FormatOf).

However, this is not the error you experience! I'm pretty sure that you forget to wait until the store is ready .

If you use eg express I recommend to start listening after the store has loaded:

const express = require('express')
const store = require('./store')

const app = express()

async function start() {
  // add middleware ...

  await store.ready()

  // start express server
  app.listen()
}
start()

You have not exported the module. for example we write module.exports=mongoose.model("user",userobj) this is missing
