You cannot create migration scripts for existing models. Resources: Tutorial video on migrations [this video] . If going the classic way, you'll have to recreate the models via the CLI: sequelize model:create --name MyUser --attributes first_name:string,last_name:string,bio:text It will generate these files: models/myuser.js: "use strict"; module.exports = function(sequelize, DataTypes) { var MyUser = sequelize.define("MyUser", { first_name: DataTypes.STRING, last_name: DataTypes.STRING, bio: DataTypes.TEXT }, { classMethods: { associate: function(models) { // associations can be defined here } } }); return MyUser; }; migrations/20150210104840-create-my-user.js: "use strict"; module.exports = { u

I am starting with sequelize and was following their video tutorial [this video] online. After running node_modules/.bin/sequelize model:create --name User --attributes username:string node_modules/.bin/sequelize model:create --name Task --attributes title:string which created the migration files for create user and create task.

I'm new to Sequelize and have been reading through the documentation to get the migrations workflow, as described in this video, to work: Sequelize Migrations [this video] I understand that running the commands from the CLI to model:create ... creates the model as well as the migration file. After running db:migrate to have the database up-to-date, I'd like to alter the model that was just created (e.g. adding a new column) and then creating migration:create ... it doesn't recognize the changes to the model. It's simply the boilerplate code for writing the migration from scratch. In the video, I can see that creating a new migration detects the changes and creates the migration file accordingly.
