How to get the list of defined models in loopback.js?

I created a Loopback.js application and defined models talking to a datasource. All is ok in Loopback explorer. server.js is working fine. In the /server folder, I created another js file that does contain:

var loopback = require('loopback');
var app = module.exports = loopback();
console.log(app.models());

When running that file, no models are shown. The result is: []. This is an empty array.

Any idea why I cannot get the whole models list?

Thanks and Regards.

Solution 
  • let app = require('../../server/server'); /** make sure the path to server is right **/

console.log(app.models)

    if you want to access specific model

    console.log(app.models.modelName);
