Properties

databaseVersion?: string

The version of the Database Sequelize will connect to. If unspecified, or set to 0, Sequelize will retrieve it during its first connection to the Database.

dialect:
    | "mysql"
    | "postgres"
    | "sqlite3"
    | "mariadb"
    | "mssql"
    | "db2"
    | "snowflake"
    | "ibmi"
    | Class<Dialect>

The dialect of the database you are connecting to. Either the name of the dialect, or a dialect class.

Sets global permanent hooks.

models?: ModelStatic[]

A list of models to load and init.

This option is only useful if you created your models using decorators. Models created using Model.init or Sequelize#define don't need to be specified in this option.

Use importModels to load models dynamically:

import { User } from './models/user.js';

new Sequelize({
models: [User],
});
new Sequelize({
models: await importModels(__dirname + '/*.model.ts'),
});

Connection pool options

url?: string

The connection URL. If other connection options are set, they will override the values set in this URL.
