# Sequelize Model Creator

## Overview

This skill provides automated assistance for sequelize model creator tasks within the Backend Development domain.

## When to Use

This skill activates automatically when you:
- Mention "sequelize model creator" in your request
- Ask about sequelize model creator patterns or best practices
- Need help with backend skills covering node.js, python, go, database design, caching, messaging, and microservices architecture.

## Instructions

1. Provides step-by-step guidance for sequelize model creator
2. Follows industry best practices and patterns
3. Generates production-ready code and configurations
4. Validates outputs against common standards

## Examples

**Example: Basic Usage**
Request: "Help me with sequelize model creator"

Overview

This skill automates creation and guidance for Sequelize model creation tasks within backend projects. It helps generate production-ready model definitions, configuration snippets, and step-by-step instructions that follow common best practices. Use it to accelerate schema design, migrations, and model associations in Node.js projects.

How this skill works

The skill inspects your request for Sequelize model requirements, such as fields, types, associations, and constraints. It produces model files, example migration and seed scripts, and recommended configuration settings, then validates outputs against common conventions. It can also suggest naming, indexing, and association patterns for maintainability and performance.

When to use it

  • You need a new Sequelize model defined with fields, validations, and associations.
  • You want example migration and seed scripts for a database schema change.
  • You need best-practice recommendations for indexes, constraints, and association types.
  • You want to validate or refactor existing Sequelize models to modern patterns.
  • You are designing schemas for microservices, caching layers, or message-driven components.

Best practices

  • Define clear field types and validations at the model level, and enforce stricter checks in migrations.
  • Use explicit association declarations (hasOne, belongsTo, hasMany, belongsToMany) and include onDelete/onUpdate rules.
  • Add database indexes for frequently queried columns and compound indexes for common multi-column lookups.
  • Keep business logic out of models; use scoped queries or service layers for complex behavior.
  • Write idempotent migrations and include down scripts or reversible operations for safe rollbacks.

Example use cases

  • Generate a User model with email uniqueness, password hashing hooks, and an index on email.
  • Create join tables and belongsToMany associations for many-to-many relationships with additional attributes.
  • Produce migration and seed files to bootstrap initial data for development and testing environments.
  • Refactor legacy models to use snake_case column names, explicit timestamps, and soft-deletes with paranoid option.
  • Suggest model-level scopes and default ordering for commonly used query patterns.

FAQ

What inputs do you need to generate a model?

Provide model name, fields with types and constraints, desired associations, and any special hooks or indexes you want included.

Can you produce migrations and seeds too?

Yes. The skill generates example migration and seed scripts consistent with the model definitions and typical Sequelize CLI patterns.
