I am working on one NodeJs application with NodeJS, Sequelize ORM and mysql2 database.

I am creating a model xyz with one field called "text" which should hold HTML values from frontend as its getting values from a text editor in frontend with bold or italic functionalities among many.

What datatype should I assign to this field "text" in Sequelize as I am lost and I searched but could not find.

I think we cannot store that in String.

Cany anyone suggest ?

sequelize.js express node.js orm

LONGTEXT is probably excessive -- it allows data sizes up to 4GB.

MEDIUMTEXT allows 16MB.

TEXT allows 64KB.

TINYTEXT allows only 255 characters.

Very few HTML documents are going to be 64KB in size, so a TEXT ought to be suitable for you. If you really want to be safe, go for a MEDIUMTEXT.

Use TEXT datatype for sequelize
