Actual behavior:

Many options to create instance methods through a lot of hard to read code Expected behavior:

Defining instance methods inside model definition with decorator or something like that Creating own decorator from lib to define instance or model method like:

Related code:

@InstanceMethod
public doSomethingWithInstance(){}

@ModelMethod
public doSomethingWithModel(){}

Hey @frct1, it's already possible to define model and instance methods easily. Just like in any normal class:

@Table 
class User extends Model<User> {
  instanceMethod() {}
  static modelMethod() {}
}

So no need for defining them in the table options like @Table({instanceMethods: {}, model...})

Does this solve your issue?

I think i can create PR for updating README.md about instance/model methods (currently in web a lot of creepy solutions. Actually i'm didn't test them, but look like)

If you don't mind it

Thanks for asking, but it's already part of the sequelize documentation: https://sequelize.org/master/manual/models-definition.html#expansion-of-models.
