How can I set the mysql table name for a model on loopback 4?

Question

I know that by default loopback 4 infers the name of the mysql database table from the model class or repository class. How can I set the table name to a custom string value? Probably I have to use a decorator, I have not been able to find anything in the documentation. Thanks.

In your decorator @model, just add the property name and it will work! For example:

@model({
  name: 'sales_order'
})
export class Order extends Entity{
...
}
