Why relationFromFields are deleted from the mermaid model

[Vitalii4as]

Hello, I'm trying to understand why some fields are removed during the generation of mermaid diagram. For example I have such a schema:

model User {
  id            String         @id
  email         String
  favoriteProducts  FavoriteProducts[]
}


model Product {
  id              String        @id
  title           String
  inFavorites  FavoriteProducts[]
}

model FavoriteProducts {
  userId      String
  user        User    @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id])
  productId   String
  product     Product @relation(fields: [productId], references: [id])

  @@id([userId, productId])
}

The generated mermaid diagram doesn't contain userId and productId. Is it possible to somehow show them?

erDiagram

  User {
    String id PK 
    String email  
    }
  

  Product {
    String id PK 
    String title  
    }
  

  FavoriteProducts {

    }
  
    FavoriteProducts o{--|| User : "user"
    FavoriteProducts o{--|| Product : "product"

I checked source code and they are filtered out in file src/generate.ts:178 - 182 Why it was done in such a way?

Thanks for your answer.

I don't think there is anything wrong with either approach. I've seen both. This is built off of an existing algorithm that put emphasis on the connection lines and representing those relationships as opposed to having every foreign key in the models.

If you'd like to add an option that would add those in feel free to send me a PR. I'm happy to add it in as long as it isn't going to change everyone's current ERD's
