removeDefaultScopes

The removeDefaultScopes method prevents all default scopes from applying. Consider a model where a soft delete pattern has been applied, like so:

@SoftDelete()
export default class Pet extends ApplicationModel {}

When a Pet record is destroyed, the SoftDelete decorator will kick in, preventing the destroy and instead setting deletedAt field, which will cause the default hideDeleted scope to hide it. This means that you will not be able to find this record again, since one of the the SoftDelete decorator also applies a default scope to the model class, preventing non-null deletedAt fields from showing up. To get around this, you can use the removeDefaultScopes method, like so:

await Pet.count() // 0
await Pet.removeDefaultScopes().count() // 1

Additionally, you can use the removeDefaultScope method to target a particular scope for removal:

await Pet.removeDefaultScope('dream:SoftDelete').count() // 1
