Error with Sequelize v4

I have just coding the todolist api project on NodeJS & Express. I follow some instruction using Sequelize to interact with DB: SQLite. But I encounter with Sequelize to create class method as below:

user.js

var bcrypt = require('bcrypt');
var _ = require('underscore');

module.exports = (sequelize, DataTypes) => {
var User = sequelize.define('user', {
    email: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING,
        allowNull: false,
        unique: true,
        validate: {
            isEmail: true
        }
    },
    salt: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING
    },
    password_hash: {
        type: DataTypes.STRING
    },
    password: {
        type: DataTypes.VIRTUAL,
        allowNull: false,
        validate: {
            len: [6, 100]
        },
        set: function (value) {
            var salt = bcrypt.genSaltSync(10);
            var hashedPassword = bcrypt.hashSync(value, salt);

            this.setDataValue('password', value);
            this.setDataValue('salt', salt);
            this.setDataValue('password_hash', hashedPassword);
        }
    }
}, {
    hooks: {
        beforeValidate: (user, options) => {
            if (typeof user.email === 'string') {
                user.email = user.email.toLowerCase();
            }
        }
    }
});
return User;

// Class methods
User.prototype.toPublicJSON = function() {
    var json = this.toJSON();
    return _.pick(json, 'id', 'email', 'createdAt', 'updatedAt');
};

User.authenticate = (body) => {
    return new Promise ((resolve, reject) => {
        if (typeof body.email !== 'string' || typeof body.password !== 'string') {
            return reject();
        }

        user.findOne({
            where: {
                email: body.email
            }
        }).then((user) => {
            if (!user || !bcrypt.compareSync(body.password, user.get('password_hash'))) {
                return reject();
            }

            resolve(user);
        }, (e) => {
            reject();
        })
    });
};
}

db.js

var Sequelize = require('sequelize');

var sequelize = new Sequelize(undefined, undefined, undefined, {
  'dialect': 'sqlite',
  'storage': __dirname + '/data/dev-todo-api.sqlite'
});

db = {};

db.todo = sequelize.import(__dirname + '/models/todo.js');
db.user = sequelize.import(__dirname + '/models/user.js');
db.sequelize = sequelize;
db.Sequelize = Sequelize;

module.exports = db;

user.js

app.post('/users/login', (req, res) => {
  var body = _.pick(req.body, 'email', 'password');

  db.user.authenticate(body).then((user) => {
    res.json(user.toPublicJSON());
  }, () => {
    res.status(401).send();
  });
})

Error: db.user.authenticate is not function.

I think I can use function authenticate after user.js return variable User. Please advise me how to resolve this problem. Thanks all.

The problem is not with sequelize. Rather you are defining the methods after return, so the code that is responsible for creating the methods is never reached.

return User;

// Class methods
User.prototype.toPublicJSON = function() {
    var json = this.toJSON();
    return _.pick(json, 'id', 'email', 'createdAt', 'updatedAt');
};

User.authenticate = (body) => {

You should move the return User statement at the end of your arrow function and your code should work.
