Edit Knex insert to take array of parameters

Question

I have this Knex update:

NoteTag.createNoteTag = async (noteId, tagId, db) => (
    db.sequelize.knex('note_tags')
      .returning([
        'id',
        'note_id',
        'tag_id',
      ])
      .insert({
        note_id: noteId,
        tag_id: tagId,
      })
  );

I'd like to be able to pass tagId as an array so that multiple tags could be added to a note.

Can I edit the function to do this and if so, how?

Knex's insert supports an array of object as well, so you can iterate over passed tagIds and map them to the insert object.

NoteTag.createNoteTag = async (noteId, tagIds, db) =>
  db.sequelize
    .knex('note_tags')
    .returning(['id', 'note_id', 'tag_id'])
    .insert(tagIds.map(tagId => ({ node_id: nodeId, tag_id: tagId })));
