Sequelize: Using Multiple Databases

Question

Do I need to create multiple instances of Sequelize if I want to use two databases? That is, two databases on the same machine.

If not, what\'s the proper way to do

Answer 1

Why don't you use raw query? With this you can connect to one database and query the other. See sample code below.

const sequelize = require('db_config');
function test(req, res){
  const qry = `SELECT * FROM db1.affiliates_order co
LEFT JOIN db2.affiliates m ON m.id = co.campaign_id`;
  sequelize.query(qry, null, {  raw: true}).then(result=>{
    console.log(result);
  })
}
