Nothing returned in feathersjs before hook sequelize association

I've created a before hook in my users service that's meant to include a record from the organizations model. The relationship between users and organizations is

users.belongsToMany(models.organizations,{through: 'users_to_organizations'});

The before hook is called attach-orgnaization.js and looks like

module.exports = (options = {}) => {
  return async context => {
    const organizations = context.app.services.organizations.Model;
    context.params.sequelize = {
      include: [{model: organizations}]
    };
    return context;
  };
};

It's set in users.hooks.js like this

....
const attachOrganization = require('../../hooks/attach-organization');
module.exports = {
  before: {
    all: [],
    find: [ authenticate('jwt') ],
    get: [authenticate('jwt'), attachOrganization()],
....

When I GET /users?id=1 I get the user back with nothing about the org that the user is associated with in users_to_organizations, which happens to be org 3 "test org".

I was expecting to see additional organization related fields in the response.

Instead I see only

{
    "total": 1,
    "limit": 10,
    "skip": 0,
    "data": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "email": "[email protected]",
            "googleId": null,
            "githubId": null,
            "createdAt": "2020-04-29T04:26:49.541Z",
            "updatedAt": "2020-04-29T04:26:49.541Z"
        }
    ]
}

Stepping through the debugger (pycharm) I can see that the code in the hook is executing.

I guess that either sequelize isn't seeing the relationship or feathers is not adding the include to the query.

What might I be missing?

Thanks!

In feathersjs, Get Method has 2 types

  1. Get : To get a specific data . Ex: GET /user/:id (id is the user id)
  2. Find : To get all data with filters , Ex : GET /user?name=xyz (It'll return all the documents with name xyz)

You have attached the attachOrganization() in the get method and calling /users?id=1 which is FIND method.So either call it by /users/1 id 1 is your _id or add the attachOrganization() to the hooks of find method too
