Unable to see fields if there are both a relation on the same table

Help me!
1

Expected behavior

I have a table with 2 fields (foreign keys/relations) pointing to the same table. When I open the data section of this table, I want to see both fields (edit, etc).

Actual behavior

When I open the data section of the table to look at my data, I can see only one of the two fields.

Failure Logs

None.

Context

Example of table matching our context:

Model:

  • id
  • name
  • createdAt
  • updatedAt

Router:

  • id
  • prodModelId (belongsTo Model)
  • betaModelId (belongsTo Model)
  • slug
  • createdAt
  • updatedAt

When looking at “Router” data, I cannot see betaModelId, only prodModelId.

  • Package Version - forest-admin-sequelize: ^7.11.2
  • Express Version: ^4.17.1
  • Sequelize Version: ~5.15.1
  • Database Dialect: PostgreSQL
  • Project Name: Inarix

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Guillaume_Robin,

Thanks for your feedback and welcome in the community!

Can you share with us:

  • The code from you model declarations
  • The SQL declaration of your tables, with the relevant fields
  • The content of the file .forestadmin-schema.json regarding these models

Hi @GuillaumeGautreau,

Thanks you for you fast answer. Here is what you asked:

model_template (which is the one with two relations on the same table: model_instance)

module.exports = (sequelizeClient, DataTypes) => {
  const { Sequelize } = sequelizeClient;
  const modelTemplate = sequelizeClient.define(
    'model_template',
    {
      familyId: {
        type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
        allowNull: false,
      },
      slug: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING(64),
        unique: true,
        allowNull: false,
      },
      name: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING,
        allowNull: false,
      },
      description: {
        type: DataTypes.TEXT,
        allowNull: true,
      },
      prodModelInstanceId: {
        type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
        allowNull: true,
        defaultValue: null,
        as: 'Prod Model',
      },
      betaModelInstanceId: {
        type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
        allowNull: true,
        defaultValue: null,
        as: 'Beta Model',
      },
    },
    {
      tableName: 'model_template',
      schema: database_1.Schemas.IModels,
      hooks: {
        beforeCount(options) {
          options.raw = true;
        },
      },
    }
  );
  // eslint-disable-next-line no-unused-vars
  modelTemplate.associate = function(models) {
    // Define associations here
    // See http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/associations/
    models.model_template.belongsTo(models.model_template_family, {
      foreignKey: 'familyId',
    });
    models.model_template.belongsTo(models.model_instance, {
      foreignKey: 'prodModelInstanceId',
      constraints: false,
    });
    models.model_template.belongsTo(models.model_instance, {
      foreignKey: 'betaModelInstanceId',
      constraints: false,
    });
    models.model_template.hasMany(
      models.prediction_post_processing_compatibility,
      { foreignKey: 'modelTemplateId', as: 'compats' }
    );
  };
  return modelTemplate;
};

model_instance

const uniqueComposite = 'modelInstanceVersionTemplateId';
module.exports = (sequelizeClient, DataTypes) => {
  const { Sequelize } = sequelizeClient;
  const modelInstance = sequelizeClient.define(
    'model_instance',
    {
      templateId: {
        type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
        allowNull: false,
        unique: uniqueComposite,
      },
      version: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING(32),
        allowNull: false,
        unique: uniqueComposite,
      },
      branchSlug: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING(128),
        allowNull: false,
      },
      dockerImageUri: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING,
        allowNull: true,
      },
      metadata: {
        type: DataTypes.JSON,
        allowNull: true,
        defaultValue: null,
      },
    },
    {
      tableName: 'model_instance',
      schema: database_1.Schemas.IModels,
      hooks: {
        beforeCount(options) {
          options.raw = true;
        },
      },
    }
  );
  // eslint-disable-next-line no-unused-vars
  modelInstance.associate = function(models) {
    // Define associations here
    // See http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/associations/
    models.model_instance.belongsTo(models.model_template, {
      foreignKey: 'templateId',
    });
  };
  return modelInstance;
};

Hello again @Guillaume_Robin,

Can you try the following modifications on your model?

  1. Remove the declaration of fields used as foreign keys in your model (prodModelInstanceId and betaModelInstanceId)
  2. Add a parameter as in both belongsTo declarations, with a different name, such as models.model_template.belongsTo(models.model_instance, { foreignKey: 'betaModelInstanceId', constraints: false, as: "betaModelInstance" });

Then restart your server. Both relationship should be declared the same way in the file forestadmin-schema.json

Hello @GuillaumeGautreau,

Thank you! I’ve been trying to understand how to fix this issue, and I never thought it could be this.

Best regards,

Guillaume
