Sequelize check row exists, and return boolean - promise

Question

I am attempting to use Sequelize to query an association table to see if one user is following another. If the relationship exists, I want to return true. If not, return false. I want to return this response to the "following" section of toProfileJSONFor (see below).
Based on logging, everything seems to be working as expected, except I receive a promise back instead of my boolean value. I've read up as much as I can find on promises, but still can't seem to figure out my issue.
Here is the result that I am currently receiving:
{
"profile": {
"username": "superman1",
"bio": null,
"image": "",
"following": {
"isFulfilled": false,
"isRejected": false
}
}
}
I understand that this is a problem with promises, but I cannot figure out a resolution.
User.prototype.toProfileJSONFor = function(user){
return {
username: this.username,
bio: this.bio,
image: this.image || 'genericImage.jpg',
following: user.isFollowing(this.id) //this is where I am having issues
};
User.prototype.isFollowing = function(id){
let userId = this.id; // current userId
let followId = id; //profile Id
return FollowerFolloweds.findAll({
where: { followedId: followId, followerId: userId},raw : true })
.then(function(result) {
if(result.length !=0){
return true;
} {
return false;
}
})
}
The expected result would be:
{
"profile": {
"username": "superman1",
"bio": null,
"image": "",
"following": true
}
}

Answer 1

Try the following:
User.prototype.toProfileJSONFor = function(user){
return user.isFollowing(this.id)
.then((following) => {
username: this.username,
bio: this.bio,
image: this.image || 'genericImage.jpg',
following
});
}
