Sequelize v6.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-06-24 // almost 4 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ Sequelize v6 is the next major release after v5. Below is a list of breaking changes to help you upgrade.

    ๐Ÿ’ฅ Breaking Changes

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Support for Node 10 and up

    ๐Ÿ‘ Sequelize v6 will only support Node 10 and up #10821.

    CLS

    ๐Ÿ“ฆ You should now use cls-hooked package for CLS support.

    const cls = require('cls-hooked');const namespace = cls.createNamespace('....');const Sequelize = require('sequelize');Sequelize.useCLS(namespace);
    

    ๐Ÿ‘ Database Engine Support

    โšก๏ธ We have updated our minimum supported database engine versions. Using older database engine will show SEQUELIZE0006 deprecation warning. Please check ENGINE.md for version table.

    Sequelize

    • ๐Ÿ”จ Bluebird has been removed. Internally all methods are now using async/await. Public API now returns native promises. Thanks to Andy Edwards for this refactor work.
    • Sequelize.Promise is no longer available.
    • ๐Ÿšš sequelize.import method has been removed.

    Model

    options.returning

    Option returning: true will no longer return attributes that are not defined in the model. Old behavior can be achieved by using returning: ['*'] instead.

    Model.changed()

    โœ… This method now tests for equality with _.isEqual and is now deep aware for JSON objects. Modifying a nested value for a JSON object won't mark it as changed (since it is still the same object).

    const instance = await MyModel.findOne();instance.myJsonField.someProperty = 12345; // Changed from something else to 12345console.log(instance.changed()); // falseawait instance.save(); // this will not save anythinginstance.changed('myJsonField', true);console.log(instance.changed()); // ['myJsonField']await instance.save(); // will save
    

    Model.bulkCreate()

    This method now throws Sequelize.AggregateError instead of Bluebird.AggregateError. All errors are now exposed as errors key.

    Model.upsert()

    ๐Ÿ‘ Native upsert is now supported for all dialects.

    const [instance, created] = await MyModel.upsert({});
    

    โšก๏ธ Signature for this method has been changed to Promise<Model,boolean | null>. First index contains upserted instance, second index contains a boolean (or null) indicating if record was created or updated. For SQLite/Postgres, created value will always be null.

    • โšก๏ธ MySQL - Implemented with ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
    • โšก๏ธ PostgreSQL - Implemented with ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
    • โšก๏ธ SQLite - Implemented with ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
    • ๐Ÿ”€ MSSQL - Implemented with MERGE statement

    Note for Postgres users: If upsert payload contains PK field, then PK will be used as the conflict target. Otherwise first unique constraint will be selected as the conflict key.

    QueryInterface

    addConstraint

    This method now only takes 2 parameters, tableName and options. Previously the second parameter could be a list of column names to apply the constraint to, this list must now be passed as options.fields property.
