How to have a self-referencing many-to-many association in Sequelize?

According to Asaf in above comment, hasMany no longer works. Here is a solution using belongsToMany:

User model:

module.exports = (sequelize, DataTypes) => {
  const Users = sequelize.define('Users', {
    id: {
      type: DataTypes.INTEGER,
      primaryKey: true,
      allowNull: false,
      autoIncrement: true
    },
    name: {
      type: DataTypes.STRING,
      allowNull: false
    }
  }, {
    freezeTableName: true
  });

  Users.associate = function(models) {
    Users.belongsToMany(models.Users, { through: models.UserUsers, as: 'Parents', foreignKey: 'parentId' });
    Users.belongsToMany(models.Users, { through: models.UserUsers, as: 'Siblings', foreignKey: 'siblingId' });
  };

  return Users;
};

UserUsers model:

module.exports = (sequelize, DataTypes) => {
  const UserUsers = sequelize.define('UserUsers', {
  }, {
    freezeTableName: true
  });

  UserUsers.associate = function(models) {
    UserUsers.belongsTo(models.Users, { as: 'Parent', onDelete: 'CASCADE'});
    UserUsers.belongsTo(models.Users, { as: 'Sibling', onDelete: 'CASCADE' });
  };

  return UserUsers;
};

Using this you set and get like this:

models.Users.findOne({ where: { name: 'name' } })
.then(u1 => {
  models.Users.findOne({ where: { name: 'name2'} })
  .then(u2 => {
    u2.addSibling(u1);
    // or if you have a list of siblings you can use the function:
    u2.addSiblings([u1, ...more siblings]);
  });
});

and

models.Users.findOne({ where: { name: 'name'} })
.then(person => {
  person.getSiblings()
  .then(siblings => { console.log(siblings) });
});

What have you tried?

How about this:

var Task = sequelize.define('Task', {
  name: Sequelize.STRING
});

Task.belongsToMany(Task, { as: 'children', foreignKey: 'ParentTaskId', through: 'ParentTasks' });
Task.belongsToMany(Task, { as: 'parents', foreignKey: 'TaskId', through: 'ParentTasks' });
