In general I have a goal to restrict any update of an entity if it's binded to anything.
To be specific I have two models: Order and Good. They have many-to-many relation.
const Good = sequelize.define('good' , { name:Sequelize.STRING });
const Order = sequelize.define('order' , { });
//M:N relation
Good.belongsToMany(Order, { through: 'GoodsInOrders' });
Order.belongsToMany(Good, { through: 'GoodsInOrders' });
I have tried to set onUpdate: 'NO ACTION' and onUpdate: 'RESTRICT' inside belongsToMany association defining but it has no effect.
Here is the code to reproduce my manipulations with goods and order
//creating few goods
const good1 = await Good.create({ name:'Coca-Cola' });
const good2 = await Good.create({ name:'Hamburger' });
const good3 = await Good.create({ name:'Fanta' });
//creating an order
const order = await Order.create();
//adding good1 and good2 to the order
await order.addGoods([good1,good2]);
//It's ok to update good3 since no orders contains It
await good3.update( { name:'Pepsi' });
//But I need to fire an exeption if I try to update any goods belonged to order
//There should be an error because we previously added good1 to order
await good1.update( { name:'Sandwich' });
I have no clue how to restrict it in a simple way.
Surely we always can add beforeUpdate hook on Good model but I would like to avoid this kind of complications.
I will be glad to any ideas.
As I said I was looking for simpler alternative to hooks but many researches after all led me to nowhere.
My solution was to declare the beforeUpdate hook inside Good model so inital definition
const Good = sequelize.define('good' , { name : Sequelize.STRING } );
was transformed into this
const Good = sequelize.define('good', {
name: Sequelize.STRING
}, {
hooks: {
beforeUpdate: async (instance, options) => {
if ((await instance.getOrders()).length)
return Promise.reject('error');
return Promise.resolve();
}
}
});
So here we add the hook that fires every time before update particular good.
It makes inner request of list of orders that contains current good.
(await instance.getOrders()).length
And depends on the result it either fire an exception if the list isn't empty or just return resolved promise that means that everything ok and current good can be updated.

I'm new to the "async/await" aspect of JS and I'm trying to learn how it works.
The error I'm getting is Line 10 of the following code. I have created a firestore database and am trying to listen for and get a certain document from the Collection 'rooms'. I am trying to get the data from the doc 'joiner' and use that data to update the innerHTML of other elements.
// References and Variables
const db = firebase.firestore();
const roomRef = await db.collection('rooms');
const remoteNameDOM = document.getElementById('remoteName');
const chatNameDOM = document.getElementById('title');
let remoteUser;
// Snapshot Listener
roomRef.onSnapshot(snapshot => {
snapshot.docChanges().forEach(async change => {
if (roomId != null){
if (role == "creator"){
const usersInfo = await roomRef.doc(roomId).collection('userInfo');
usersInfo.doc('joiner').get().then(async (doc) => {
remoteUser = await doc.data().joinerName;
remoteNameDOM.innerHTML = `${remoteUser} (Other)`;
chatNameDOM.innerHTML = `Chatting with ${remoteUser}`;
})
}
}
})
})
})
However, I am getting the error:
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'joinerName' of undefined
Similarly if I change the lines 10-12 to:
remoteUser = await doc.data();
remoteNameDOM.innerHTML = `${remoteUser.joinerName} (Other)`;
chatNameDOM.innerHTML = `Chatting with ${remoteUser.joinerName}`;
I get the same error.
My current understanding is that await will wait for the line/function to finish before moving forward, and so remoteUser shouldn't be null before trying to call it. I will mention that sometimes the code works fine, and the DOM elements are updated and there are no console errors.
My questions: Am I thinking about async/await calls incorrectly? Is this not how I should be getting documents from Firestore? And most importantly, why does it seem to work only sometimes?
Edit: Here are screenshots of the Firestore database as requested by #Dharmaraj. I appreciate the advice.
You are mixing the use of async/await and then(), which is not recommended. I propose below a solution based on Promise.all() which helps understanding the different arrays that are involved in the code. You can adapt it with async/await and a for-of loop as #Dharmaraj proposed.
roomRef.onSnapshot((snapshot) => {
// snapshot.docChanges() Returns an array of the documents changes since the last snapshot.
// you may check the type of the change. I guess you maybe don’t want to treat deletions
const promises = [];
snapshot.docChanges().forEach(docChange => {
// No need to use a roomId, you get the doc via docChange.doc
// see https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/js/firebase.firestore.DocumentChange
if (role == "creator") { // It is not clear from where you get the value of role...
const joinerRef = docChange.doc.collection('userInfo').doc('joiner');
promises.push(joinerRef.get());
}
});
Promise.all(promises)
.then(docSnapshotArray => {
// docSnapshotArray is an Array of all the docSnapshots
// corresponding to all the joiner docs corresponding to all
// the rooms that changed when the listener was triggered
docSnapshotArray.forEach(docSnapshot => {
remoteUser = docSnapshot.data().joinerName;
remoteNameDOM.innerHTML = `${remoteUser} (Other)`;
chatNameDOM.innerHTML = `Chatting with ${remoteUser}`;
})
});
});
However, what is not clear to me is how you differentiate the different elements of the "first" snapshot (i.e. roomRef.onSnapshot((snapshot) => {...}))). If several rooms change, the snapshot.docChanges() Array will contain several changes and, at the end, you will overwrite the remoteNameDOM and chatNameDOM elements in the last loop.
Or you know upfront that this "first" snapshot will ALWAYS contain a single doc (because of the architecture of your app) and then you could simplify the code by just treating the first and unique element as follows:
roomRef.onSnapshot((snapshot) => {
const roomDoc = snapshot.docChanges()[0];
// ...
});
There are few mistakes in this:
db.collection() does not return a promise and hence await is not necessary there
forEach ignores promises so you can't actually use await inside of forEach. for-of is preferred in that case.
Please try the following code:
const db = firebase.firestore();
const roomRef = db.collection('rooms');
const remoteNameDOM = document.getElementById('remoteName');
const chatNameDOM = document.getElementById('title');
let remoteUser;
// Snapshot Listener
roomRef.onSnapshot(async (snapshot) => {
for (const change of snapshot.docChanges()) {
if (roomId != null){
if (role == "creator"){
const usersInfo = roomRef.doc(roomId).collection('userInfo').doc("joiner");
usersInfo.doc('joiner').get().then(async (doc) => {
remoteUser = doc.data().joinerName;
remoteNameDOM.innerHTML = `${remoteUser} (Other)`;
chatNameDOM.innerHTML = `Chatting with ${remoteUser}`;
})
}
}
}
})
I am trying to take benefits of model instance methods, as stated in the doc. So I defined User class as following:
class User extends Model {
addRole(role){
let roles = this. roles;
roles[role] = true;
this.roles = roles;
this.save();
}
removeRole (role) {
let roles = this.roles;
delete roles[role];
this.save();
}
hasRole (role){
return this.roles[role] != null;
}
}
User.init({
// some attributes
,
roles:{
type: DataTypes.JSON,
allowNull: false,
}
}, { sequelize});
I expected to use methods addRole(), removeRole() and hasRole() in any User instance.
The problem that all the methods can't save their changes to database. (Can read only!)
// example
let user = null;
// get the first user to test.
User.findAll()
.then(users =>{
user = users[0];
user.addRole("admin");
console.log(user.roles); // {admin: true}
user.save();
// However the changes don't appear in the database.
});
I had found the answer.
For some reasons, sequelise can't detect the changes of the json object properly. As sequelise is optimised internally to ignore call to model.save() if there is no changes of the model. So, sequelize randomly ignore the save method.
This behavior had no relation with instance method as I believed when I face this problem first time.
To get out of this problem, I had to use :
user.addRole("admin");
user.changed("roles", true); // <<<< look at this;
console.log(user.roles); // {admin: true}
user.save();
Please note that this function will return false when a property from a nested (for example JSON) property was edited manually, you must call changed('key', true) manually in these cases. Writing an entirely new object (eg. deep cloned) will be detected.
Example:
const mdl = await MyModel.findOne();
mdl.myJsonField.a = 1;
console.log(mdl.changed()) => false
mdl.save(); // this will not save anything
mdl.changed('myJsonField', true);
console.log(mdl.changed()) => ['myJsonField']
mdl.save(); // will save
changed method usage
I'm trying to build a simple app that lets the user type a name of a movie in a search bar, and get a list of all the movies related to that name (from an external public API).
I have a problem with the actual state updating.
If a user will type "Star", the list will show just movies with "Sta". So if the user would like to see the actual list of "Star" movies, he'd need to type "Star " (with an extra char to update the previous state).
In other words, the search query is one char behind the State.
How should it be written in React Native?
state = {
query: "",
data: []
};
searchUpdate = e => {
let query = this.state.query;
this.setState({ query: e }, () => {
if (query.length > 2) {
this.searchQuery(query.toLowerCase());
}
});
};
searchQuery = async query => {
try {
const get = await fetch(`${API.URL}/?s=${query}&${API.KEY}`);
const get2 = await get.json();
const data = get2.Search; // .Search is to get the actual array from the json
this.setState({ data });
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
You don't have to rely on state for the query, just get the value from the event in the change handler
searchUpdate = e => {
if(e.target.value.length > 2) {
this.searchQuery(e.target.value)
}
};
You could keep state updated as well if you need to in order to maintain the value of the input correctly, but you don't need it for the search.
However, to answer what you're problem is, you are getting the value of state.query from the previous state. The first line of your searchUpdate function is getting the value of your query from the current state, which doesn't yet contain the updated value that triggered the searchUpdate function.
I don't prefer to send api call every change of letters. You should send API just when user stop typing and this can achieved by debounce function from lodash
debounce-lodash
this is the best practise and best for user and server instead of sending 10 requests in long phases
the next thing You get the value from previous state you should do API call after changing state as
const changeStateQuery = query => {
this.setState({query}, () => {
//call api call after already changing state
})
}
Heroku recently posted a list of some good tips for postgres. I was most intreged by the Track the Source of Your Queries section. I was curious if this was something that's possible to use with Sequelize. I know that sequelize has hooks, but wasn't sure if hooks could be used to make actual query string adjustments.
I'm curious if it's possible to use a hook or another Sequelize method to append a comment to Sequelize query (without using .raw) to keep track of where the query was called from.
(Appending and prepending to queries would also be helpful for implementing row-level security, specifically set role / reset role)
Edit: Would it be possible to use sequelize.fn() for this?
If you want to just insert a "tag" into the SQL query you could use Sequelize.literal() to pass a literal string to the query generator. Adding this to options.attributes.include will add it, however it will also need an alias so you would have to pass some kind of value as well.
Model.findById(id, {
attributes: {
include: [
[Sequelize.literal('/* your comment */ 1'), 'an_alias'],
],
},
});
This would produce SQL along the lines of
SELECT `model`.`id`, /* your comment */ 1 as `an_alias`
FROM `model` as `model`
WHERE `model`.`id` = ???
I played around with automating this a bit and it probably goes beyond the scope of this answer, but you could modify the Sequelize.Model.prototype before you create a connection using new Sequelize() to tweak the handling of the methods. You would need to do this for all the methods you want to "tag".
// alias findById() so we can call it once we fiddle with the input
Sequelize.Model.prototype.findById_untagged = Sequelize.Model.prototype.findById;
// override the findbyId() method so we can intercept the options.
Sequelize.Model.prototype.findById = function findById(id, options) {
// get the caller somehow (I was having trouble accessing the call stack properly)
const caller = ???;
// you need to make sure it's defined and you aren't overriding settings, etc
options.attributes.include.push([Sequelize.literal('/* your comment */ 1'), 'an_alias']);
// pass it off to the aliased method to continue as normal
return this.findById_untagged(id, options);
}
// create the connection
const connection = new Sequelize(...);
Note: it may not be possible to do this automagically as Sequelize has use strict so the arguments.caller and arguments.callee properties are not accessible.
2nd Note: if you don't care about modifying the Sequelize.Model prototypes you can also abstract your calls to the Sequelize methods and tweak the options there.
function Wrapper(model) {
return {
findById(id, options) {
// do your stuff
return model.findById(id, options);
},
};
}
Wrapper(Model).findById(id, options);
3rd Note: You can also submit a pull request to add this functionality to Sequelize under a new option value, like options.comment, which is added at the end of the query.
This overrides the sequelize.query() method that's internally used by Sequelize for all queries to add a comment showing the location of the query in the code. It also adds the stack trace to errors thrown.
const excludeLineTexts = ['node_modules', 'internal/process', ' anonymous ', 'runMicrotasks', 'Promise.'];
// overwrite the query() method that Sequelize uses internally for all queries so the error shows where in the code the query is from
sequelize.query = function () {
let stack;
const getStack = () => {
if (!stack) {
const o = {};
Error.captureStackTrace(o, sequelize.query);
stack = o.stack;
}
return stack;
};
const lines = getStack().split(/\n/g).slice(1);
const line = lines.find((l) => !excludeLineTexts.some((t) => l.includes(t)));
if (line) {
const methodAndPath = line.replace(/(\s+at (async )?|[^a-z0-9.:/\\\-_ ]|:\d+\)?$)/gi, '');
if (methodAndPath) {
const comment = `/* ${methodAndPath} */`;
if (arguments[0]?.query) {
arguments[0].query = `${comment} ${arguments[0].query}`;
} else {
arguments[0] = `${comment} ${arguments[0]}`;
}
}
}
return Sequelize.prototype.query.apply(this, arguments).catch((err) => {
err.fullStack = getStack();
throw err;
});
};
At a loss on this one.
I'm using Ember and Ember data. I've got this extra implementation of ic-ajax to make GET, POST and PUT calls. Anyway, i'm trying to make a GET call then turn those results into model instances.
return this.GET('/editor')
.then((data) => {
return data.drafts.map((draftData) => {
let draft = this.store.find('draft',draftData.id);
console.log(draft.get('type'));
return draft;
});
});
My API returns proper data as data.drafts. This map is supposed to return an array of promises that resolve to draft models. It does not. It resolves to a draft model that has id, date, and title. But that's it. I have 25 others attributions.
In another part of the application i'm getting drafts using findAll on the model. And those models look fine. But when I try store.findRecord('draft',id) i get these fake objects.
-- edit
This is what my ReOpenClass method looks like for getting an array of objects from the server and turning them into ember objects
search(critera) {
let query = { search: critera };
let adapter = this.store.adapterFor('application');
let url = adapter.buildURL('article','search');
return adapter.ajax(url,'GET', { data: query }).then(response => {
let articleRecords = response.articles.map((article) => {
let record;
try {
record = this.store.createRecord('article', article);
} catch(e) {
record = this.store.peekRecord('article', article.id);
}
return record;
});
return articleRecords;
});
},
So far I can't find a better way to pull this off.
