classMethods never works

[KaltZK]

It seems that "associate" in the following code is never called.
It does not even exist in User.

var User = sequelize.define('User', {
    username: DataTypes.STRING,
    password: DataTypes.STRING,
    auth: {
      type: DataTypes.ENUM,
      values: ['reader', 'admin', 'root']
    }
  }, {
    classMethods: {
      associate(models){
        console.log("test")
        // pass
      }
    }
  });

In fact, all the methods defined in classMethods do not appear in User.
Is that a bug?

If you check the documentation you can observe that the way of defining class level methods was modified: http://docs.sequelizejs.com/manual/tutorial/models-definition.html#expansion-of-models
But it seems to be a sequelize related problem, not sequelize-cli.

@kukukk Okay...Thanks for that...
I should have read the document more carefully...
I just found that a Pull Request had been submitted for this problem ...
#470

The question is: will sequelize-cli be updated? What's the plan? Is there any way for us to detect which version of sequelize is being used and generate the proper code?

[geluso]

The cli README could at least be updated to make it clear that it's not compatible with sequelize 4.0.0 and up.
