Creating Sequelize models

Before we jump into the authentication functions, we need to create our User model in Sequelize. For this, we need to create a file at /backend/src/models/User.ts. Our model will have the following fields:

• id
• username
• password
• email
• privilege
• active

Let's see the code:

// Dependencies
import { encrypt } from '@contentpi/lib'

// Interfaces
import { IUser, IDataTypes } from '../types'

export default (sequelize: any, DataTypes: IDataTypes): IUser => {
  const User = sequelize.define(
    'User',
    {
      id: {
        primaryKey: true,
        allowNull: false,
        type: DataTypes.UUID,
        defaultValue: DataTypes.UUIDV4()
      },
      username: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING,
        allowNull: false,
        unique: true,
        validate: {
          isAlphanumeric: {
            args: true,
            msg: 'The user just accepts alphanumeric characters'
          },
          len: {
            args: [4, 20],
       ...
