Is there a way to disable timestamp columns globally for all models?

Question

So I can disable the timestamp columns for a particular model but is there a way to disable it for all models?

const Contract = sequelize.define('Contract', {
    idContract: {
        type: Sequelize.INTEGER,
        primaryKey: true
    },
    AccountNo_Lender: {
        type: Sequelize.STRING
    }
}, { timestamps: false });

Answer 1

You can define this when initializing the sequelize object.

const sequelize = new Sequelize('test', 'postgres', 'postgres', {
  host: '127.0.0.1',
  dialect: 'postgres',
  define: {
    timestamps: false
  },
});

Options under define are as same as when we define them inside the model. So all the options which can be used inside the model can be used here as well. From the docs

// Specify options, which are used when sequelize.define is called.
// The following example: // define: { timestamps: false } // is basically the same as: // sequelize.define(name, attributes, { timestamps: false }) // so defining the timestamps for each model will be not necessary
