Question: Is it best to generate models at runtime or during development and push the generated code to source control?

I have a best-practice question when using sequelize-auto.

So sequelize-auto's purpose generates the models from the database, it does a great job in doing that and I really thank the author for providing such a powerful library.

So my question is: Is it best to generate these models when building the project or should we do it during development and push the generated models to source control?

What I'm doing now is the following:
Whenever I migrate my database, I use that a bash file to generate the new models, and then continue the development process.

Please correct me if i'm doing anything wrong.

Thank you very much.

I generate the models during development and check them in. I use TypeScript, and need to have the models as part of the code base so that everything compiles correctly.

Then I generate my Breeze client-side models from the server models using breeze-sequelize. See the Northwind Demo for end-to-end instructions.
