Using sequelize, I have two models with associations:
var Assessment = sequelize.define("Assessment", {
name: DataTypes.STRING
});
var User = sequelize.define("User", {
sid: DataTypes.STRING
});
Assessment.belongsTo(User);
User.hasMany(Assessment);
After some application logic, I have a User:
User.findOrCreate( { where: {sid: "123"} } ).spread(function (user, created) {
// user is a User
});
At this point, I cannot get sequelize to associate the User as part of a Assessment.findOrCreate. This code will create a new Assessment record in the database (if one does not exist), but it will not include the User key as part of the record (instead it's just NULL):
Assessment.findOrCreate( {
where: { },
include: [ { model: User, where: user.primaryKeyValues } ]
} ).spread( function (assessment, created) {
// ...
});
I have a workaround working by adding:
assessment.setUser(user).then( function(assessment) {
...
});
...however, this results in a SQL UPDATE that should just be part of creating the record. I'm fairly certain there should be way to do this, but unable to find anything in the docs/so/etc.

Reset to default 5Try this: You'd need to set the User primary key reference into the created assessment.
Assessment.findOrCreate( {
where: { UserId: user.id },
include: [ User ]
} ).spread( function (assessment, created) {
// assessment should contain a User property with the previously found / created user
});
