Error: Model not initialized: User cannot be instantiated. "User" needs to be added to a Sequelize instance.

[anaSDCorreia]

Hello everyone, I'm using meteor with postgres db.

Issue

Error: Model not initialized: User cannot be instantiated. "User" needs to be added to a Sequelize instance.

Versions

• sequelize - "^6.16.1":
• sequelize-typescript - "^2.1.3":
• typescript - "^4.4.4":

Issue type

• [x] bug report
• [ ] feature request

Actual behavior

I'm using meteor with postgres db. I created the User class with the name field. I initialize Sequelize with models:[User], and it runs smoothly. It creates the User table in the DB if it doesn't exist. The problem is when I try to create a new user, the library returns an error indicating that the User object is not in the Model. When I do console.log(User === this.sequelize.models.User); it returns false.

Expected behavior

It will be possible to create objects of type User without returning errors.

Steps to reproduce

I downloaded the examples from the library's github and the same problem occurred. Just change the initialize from sequelize to Postgres.

export const sequelize = new Sequelize("XX", "XX", "XX",{
  dialect: 'postgres',
  port:  5432,
  host:  "localhost",
  repositoryMode: true,
  logging:console.log,
  models: [User, Post],
});

import {Sequelize} from "sequelize-typescript";

public async connect(config: any)
    {
        this.sequelize = new Sequelize(config.databaseName, config.username, config.password, {
            dialect: 'postgres',
            port:  config.port,
            host:  config.host,
            models:[User],
            repositoryMode: true,
            logging:console.log,
            dialectOptions: {}
        });

await this.sequelize.authenticate()
            .then(() => {
                this.sequelize.sync().then(() => Log.debug("Sucess")).then(() => Log.debug("Sucess")).then(() => {
                    console.log(this.sequelize.models);
                    var u =new User({name:"sdd"});
                    console.log(u.name);
                    console.log(User === this.sequelize.models.User);

                })
            });

I have the same problem. 'sync' does nothing after tsc build

I have the same problem. 'sync' does nothing after tsc build

solved, models: [path.join(__dirname, './models/**/*.ts')]

change to

models: [path.join(__dirname, './models/**/*')]

after build, the file extension is not .ts

change to

models: [path.join(__dirname, './models/**/*')]

it worked but with a slight variation

models: [path.join(__dirname, './models/**/*.*')]
