How to make join queries using Sequelize on Node.js?

For instance, we write
const posts = await Posts.findAll({
include: [{
model: User,
required: true
}]
})
//...
to call Posts.findAll with an object that has the include property set to an array with the model set to User to join the User entity when we make a query for Posts.
required is set to true so we do an inner join.
To do a left outer join, we set required to false.
