Ability to call "createTables" without doing "describeTable" about dynogels HOT 4 CLOSED

One way I've done it currently is to comment the following line:

      callback(null);
/*      model.updateTable(err => {
        if (err) {
          model.log.warn({ err: err }, 'failed to update table %s: %s', tableName, err);
          return callback(err);
        }

        model.log.info('waiting for table: %s to become ACTIVE', tableName);
        internals.waitTillActive(model, callback);
      });
*/

Just for testing.

I'm a little confused why you'd need to call createTables if you know the tables exist. I have an application config setting that allows us to trigger table creation based off a flag or environment variable:

function maybeCreateTables(config, callback) {
  if (config.createTables) {
    console.log('CREATING TABLES...'); // eslint-disable-line
    return dynogels.createTables(callback);
  }
  return callback();
}

If I've misunderstood the question then please let me know. Thanks

Hmm, i see... I though to use the "models" we had to wrap the object inside the createTables(callback);

The models need to have been initialised by calling define method. As long as that is called before you use it then there shouldn't be a problem.
