Vanilla JavaScript Lazy Loading Relations

Issue type:

[ ] question [ x ] bug report [ ] feature request [ ] documentation issue

Database system/driver:

[ ] cordova [ ] mongodb [ ] mssql [ ] mysql / mariadb [ ] oracle [ x ] postgres [ ] sqlite [ ] sqljs [ ] react-native

TypeORM version:

[ x ] latest [ ] @next [ ] 0.x.x (or put your version here)

Steps to reproduce or a small repository showing the problem:

I am using TypeORM with vanilla JavaScript and I have a one-to-many relation on a model (let’s call it model1) and its inverse many-to-one relation on another model (let’s call it model2). I have set up the Model2Schema to the default eager load and Model1Schema to lazy load the relation (since I don’t want to always load the “many” part each time I get this model). However I always get the model1.model2s to be empty. My code looks like this: Model1.findOne({}).then(async model1 => { console.log(model1); let model2s = await model1.model2s; console.log(model2s); }).catch(error); The model2s variable is undefined. P.S. I had to define the then callback as async since await has to work with async functions.

Any help?

We are planning to add JavaScript docs in next 0.3.0 version.

The problem was that I did not specify the inverseSide of the relation. I came to that conclusion with a lot of tinkering and looking through a lot of the typeorm code though. It would be really helpful if there is a bit more documentation for Vanilla Javascript. 😄
