We will start by creating our model. The code is as follows:

import Vapor 
import Fluent 

final class Todo: Model { 
    var id: Node? 
    var todoId: Int 
    var name: String 
    var description: String 
    var notes: String 
    var completed: Bool 
    var synced: Bool 

    var exists: Bool = false 

    init(node: Node, in context: Context) throws { 
        id = try node.extract("id") 
        todoId = try node.extract("todoId") 
        name = try node.extract("name") 
        description = try node.extract("description") 
        notes = try node.extract("notes") 
        completed = try node.extract("completed") 
        synced = try node.extract("synced") 

    } 

    init(todoId: Int, name: String, description: String, notes: String,        
    completed: Bool, synced: Bool) { 
        self.todoId = todoId 
        self.name = name 
        self.description = description 
        self.notes = notes 
        self.completed = completed 
        self.synced = synced 
    } 

    func makeNode(context: Context) throws -> Node { 
        return try Node(node: [ 
            "id": id, 
            "todoId": todoId, 
            "name": "(name)", 
            "description": "(description)", 
            "notes": "(notes)", 
            "completed": completed, 
            "synced": synced 
            ]) 

    } 
} 

This class imports Vapor and Fluent and includes some Todo-related properties as well as an init method.

To be able to pass this model into JSON arrays and dictionaries, we provided a makeNode(context: Context) throws -> Node implementation.
