Sequelize - update record, and return result

Question

I am using sequelize with MySQL. For example if I do:

models.People.update({OwnerId: peopleInfo.newuser},
        {where: {id: peopleInfo.scenario.id}})
             


        

Answer 1

There is another way - use findByPk static method and update not-static method together. For example:

let person = await models.People.findByPk(peopleInfo.scenario.id);
if (!person) {
  // Here you can handle the case when a person is not found
  // For example, I return a "Not Found" message and a 404 status code
}
person = await person.update({ OwnerId: peopleInfo.newuser });
response(person).code(200);

Note this code must be inside an asynchronous function.
