Sequelize Joins between two tables which are associated with third table
I have 3 models in Sequelize : Model User, Model Post and Model Comment.
User Table :
id, displayName
Post Table :
id, userId, value
Comment Table :
id, userId, value
How does one go about creating a join between the Post and Comment Model on the userId column ? I have created associations between User and Post Models and User and Comment Models. But when I try to create a join on Post and Comment Models I get a 'no association found' error. Which is the best way to associate the Post and Comment Model ?
I have seen some posts which say to use 'belongsToMany'
Can I do this since they are both related to User Model?
Post.belongsToMany(Comments, {through: User});
Comments.belongsToMany(Post, {through: User});
Or do I need to create a new model 'UserMaster' which will contain post and comment ids like below?
Post.belongsToMany(Comments, {through: 'UserMaster'});
Comments.belongsToMany(Post, {through: 'UserMaster'});
Thanks in advance
