When a callback is omitted from a DAO method, return a Promise that
resolves to the value normally passed to the callback of that method.
If a callback is provided, behave normally.
This API will use native ES6 promises if available. If not available,
or to force the use of another Promise library, you must assign the
global.Promise object.
e.g.:
global.Promise = require('bluebird')
Class methods affected:
- create
- updateOrCreate / upsert
- findOrCreate
- exists
- find
- findOne
- findById

- count
- update / updateAll
Prototype methods affected:
- save
- delete / remove / destroy
- updateAttribute
- updateAttributes
- reload
Exceptions / edge cases:
- create() used to return the data object that was passed in, even if
no callback was provided. Now, if a callback is provided, it will
return the data object, otherwise it will return a Promise.
- If create() is provided an array of data objects for creation, it
will continue to always return the array. This batch creation mode
does not support promises.
- findOrCreate() has a callback of the form: cb(err, instance, created),
with the extra parameter indicating whether the instance was created
or not. When called with its promise variant, the resolver will
receive a single array parameter: [instance, created]
The property allows developers to specify that the default value
should be retrieved via a named function.
Only two built-in functions are supported at the moment:
"guid", "uuid" - generate a new GUID/UUID
"now" - use the current date and time
Support for custom (user-provided) functions is not implemented yet.
The commit 1fd6eff1 (intent-based hooks) introduced a subtle regression
in `.save()` method where dynamic property setters were invoked twice.
This commit fixes the problem by moving pre-save data normalization
into `before save` callback.
When building a list of errors for `ValidationError.message`, include
the values of invalid properties too.
In order to keep the message reasonably short, the values are truncated
at approx 32 characters.
Previously validations were appended to an array when configured. The
format was cumbersome, and led to issues. This refactors the
configuration into an object, as a property of the Model.
Note that if no validations have been configured, this property is
currently `undefined`.
- change `statusCode` from 400 to 422
- nest `context` and `codes` inside `details`
- add `details.messages`
- reword the main error message
Remove the call to Error's constructor from ValidationError constructor,
because it's a no-op - Error's constructor creates a new
instance when called via `.call()`.
- Add a ModelDefinition class to encapsulate the model schema handling
- Add a Connector class as the base class for connector implementations
- Optimize attachTo and mixin
- Rename some properties/methods
