@clenondavis The import is likely a small raw config.json that means little.
You can as well, and preferably personally, define everything in the config.js.

BTW it works like magic and I can't yet understand how it works, this is the first real method that lets me do migrations in ES6, great job!

Thanks for it!

can't seem to get the dialect to work, I'm getting this:

RROR: Dialect undefined does not support db:create / db:drop commands

Note: the "undefined".

My config.js for the babelHook.js looks like:

// migrations/config/config.js
import config from '../../config/config.json';
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development';

export default {
  [env]: {
    dialect: config[env]['dialect'],
    username: config[env]['username'],
    password: config[env]['password'],
    host: config[env]['host'],
    migrationStorageTableName: 'SequelizeMeta'
  }
};

Running it, such as...

$ npm run sequelize db:drop

> @2.10.0 sequelize /Users/gary/Development/digsup/DigsUp
> sequelize $* "db:drop"

Any help appreciated.

Resolved. The issue was actually that I needed to pass the environment variable through to babel.
I used cross-env, so this solved it by adding it to my package.json.

"sequelize": "cross-env NODE_ENV=local sequelize $*",

this doesn't actually work for me with import and export statements. i'm trying the following:

• running ./node_modules/.bin/sequelize via ./node_modules/.bin/babel-node
• requiring babel-core/register in my sequelize config.js
• using cross-env (didn't help)

relevant npm run commands:

    "sequelize": "NODE_ENV=development ./node_modules/.bin/babel-node ./node_modules/.bin/sequelize --config config/sequelize-cli.js",
    "db:migrate": "npm run sequelize db:migrate",
    "db:seed": "npm run sequelize db:seed:all",

my sequelize config:

require('babel-core/register');

const path = require('path');
const conf = require(path.resolve('.', 'config'));

const env = conf.get('NODE_ENV');

console.log(`env=${env}, db config=`);
console.log(conf.get('db'));

module.exports = { [env]: conf.get('db') };

the tests:

No example of a migration

Needs Typescript definitions

EcmaScript in migrations worked for me only with this file (and installing the packages in it)
