##### IMPORTANT! Mixin object structure is changed. If you use "relationsConfig" key, please use 1.3.1 version

```
##### or change object structure! (see below)
This module is designed for the [Strongloop Loopback](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback) framework. It provides cascade delete with a simple configuration on your models.
## install
```bash
npm install --save loopback-cascade-delete-mixin
```
Node.js v. > 6
## mixinsources
Add the `mixins` property to your `server/model-config.json` like the following:
```json
{
"_meta": {
"sources": [
"loopback/common/models",
"loopback/server/models",
"../common/models",
"./models"
],
"mixins": [
"loopback/common/mixins",
"../node_modules/loopback-cascade-delete-mixin",
"../common/mixins"
]
}
}
```
## config
To use with your Models add the `mixins` attribute to the definition object of your model config.
```json
{
"name": "Product",
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
}
},
"relations": {
"properties": {
"type": "hasMany",
"model": "Property",
"foreignKey": ""
},
"description": {
"type": "hasMany",
"model": "Property",
"foreignKey": ""
}
},
"mixins": {
"CascadeDelete": {
"relations":
["properties",
{"name": "description", "deepDelete": false}],
"deepDelete": true,
}
}
}
```
**options**
| option | type | description | required |
| ------ | ---- | ----------- | -------- |
|relations| [String] or [Object] | relations which you want to delete together with current model, see object keys below | true |
|deepDelete| [Boolean] | enable or disable the deep delete function. If activated, the CascadeDelete will be executed on the deleted related models as well (if they have the CascadeDelete mixin specified). If not used, disable it for performance matters | false |
**relations object**
| key | type | description | required |
| ------ | ---- | ----------- | -------- |
|name| [String] | relation name | true |
|deepDelete| [Boolean] | enable or disable the deep delete function for current relation. If activated, the CascadeDelete will be executed on the deleted related models as well (if they have the CascadeDelete mixin specified). If not used, disable it for performance matters | false |
|foreignKey| [String] | custom foreign key | false |
