I am trying to access my User objection.js model from getStaticProps and getStaticPaths.
However, I need to run
import Knex from "knex";
import knexfile from "./knexfile";
import { Model } from "objection";
function setupDB() {
const db = Knex(knexfile[process.env.NODE_ENV]);
Model.knex(db);
}
on server startup.
When I do
const users = await User.query();
inside getStaticPaths, I get Error: no database connection available for a query. You need to bind the model class or the query to a knex instance. error.
I tried running setupDB() inside _app.js with typeof window === "undefined" check, but just importing Knex and objection in _app.js throws an error.
Where should I run this? I really really want to avoid extending server.js.
(I should add there was a discussion on next.js github, but not sure if there's a way to do it specific to Objection.js, or any recent development.
