Sequelize Can't Add Value into Associated Object - express

Question

I am trying to to create an object with a child (association) that has the Id of the created object passed as a value to its property. I have tried to follow the documentation, but there is no value being passed with the SQL command.
Here is the SQL query:
INSERT INTO `organization` (`organization_id`,`organization_name`,`admin`,`updatedAt`,`createdAt`) VALUES (DEFAULT,'dfsadfadsfa','ter#test.cm','2016-01-08 02:23:04','2016-01-08 02:23:04');
No reference to user
Here is the route inserting into organization:
var express = require('express');
var appRoutes = express.Router();
var passport = require('passport');
var localStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;
var models = require('../models/db-index');
appRoutes.route('/sign-up/organization')
.get(function(req, res){
models.User.find({
where: {
user_id: req.user.email
}, attributes: [ 'user_id', 'email'
]
}).then(function(user){
res.render('pages/sign-up-organization.hbs',{
user: req.user
});
})
})
.post(function(req, res, user){
models.Organization.create({
organizationName: req.body.organizationName,
admin: req.body.admin,
User: [{
organizationId: req.body.organizationId
}]
}, { include: [models.User] }).then(function(){
console.log(user.user_id);
res.redirect('/app');
}).catch(function(error){
res.send(error);
console.log('Error at Post');
})
});
Here is the form submission:
<div class="container">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-3">
<form action="/app/sign-up/organization" method="post">
<p>{{user.email}}</p>
<input type="hidden" name="admin" value="{{user.email}}">
<input type="hidden" name="organizationId">
<label for="sign-up-organization">Company/Organization Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="sign-up-organization" name="organizationName" value="" placeholder="Company/Organization">
<br />
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
user.js model:
var bcrypt = require('bcrypt-nodejs');
module.exports = function(sequelize, DataTypes) {
var User = sequelize.define('user', {
user_id: {
type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
autoIncrement: true,
primaryKey: true
},
firstName: {
type: DataTypes.STRING,
field: 'first_name'
},
lastName: {
type: DataTypes.STRING,
field: 'last_name'
},
email: {
type: DataTypes.STRING,
isEmail: true,
unique: true
},
password: DataTypes.STRING,
organizationId: {
type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
field: 'organization_id',
allowNull: true
}
}, {
freezeTableName: true,
classMethods: {
generateHash: function(password) {
return bcrypt.hashSync(password, bcrypt.genSaltSync(8), null);
},
},
instanceMethods: {
validPassword: function(password) {
return bcrypt.compareSync(password, this.password);
},
},
});
return User;
}
organization.js model:
module.exports = function(sequelize, DataTypes) {
var Organization = sequelize.define('organization', {
organizationId: {
type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
field: 'organization_id',
autoIncrement: true,
primaryKey: true
},
organizationName: {
type: DataTypes.STRING,
field: 'organization_name'
},
admin: DataTypes.STRING,
members: DataTypes.STRING
},{
freezeTableName: true,
classMethods: {
associate: function(db) {
Organization.hasMany(db.User, {foreignKey: 'user_id'});
},
},
});
return Organization;
}
db-index.js: where the two are associated:
var Sequelize = require('sequelize');
var path = require('path');
var config = require(path.resolve(__dirname, '..', '..','./config/config.js'));
var sequelize = new Sequelize(config.database, config.username, config.password, {
host:'localhost',
port:'3306',
dialect: 'mysql'
});
sequelize.authenticate().then(function(err) {
if (!!err) {
console.log('Unable to connect to the database:', err)
} else {
console.log('Connection has been established successfully.')
}
});
var db = {}
db.Organization = sequelize.import(__dirname + "/organization");
db.User = sequelize.import(__dirname + "/user");
db.Annotation = sequelize.import(__dirname + "/annotation");
db.Organization.associate(db);
db.Annotation.associate(db);
db.sequelize = sequelize;
db.Sequelize = Sequelize;
sequelize.sync();
module.exports = db;

Answer 1

When I use Sequelize, I usually create a function that creates an instance of the sequelize model using the build method and I use the instance to save that instance to the database. With the returned instance you can do whatever you need.
var instance = models.Organization.build(data);
instance.save().then(function(savedOrgInstance){
savedOrgInstance.createUser(userData).then(function(responseData){
//do whatever you want with the callback })
})
I can't say I've seen a create statement as you've written it. What is the extra include statement for?
That should give that newly created user the association you're looking for.
You should checkout the setAssociaton, getAssociation, createAssociation methods in the docs. http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/associations/
