Notes
- This is an instance method. Currently, instance methods ARE NOT TRANSACTIONAL. Because of this, it is recommended that you use the equivalent model method instead.
- If you have any associations on the model they will currently be populated when you call
.save(). This could cause issues with memory so to prevent this, you can take advantage of an experimental feature: passing in an options argument withpopulate: falseset. Example:.save({ populate: false }, function() {}).
