Sails.js: Stub Waterline query method with Sinon.js

stubQueryMethod.js

var util = require('util');
var _ = require('lodash');
var sinon = require('sinon');

/**
 * Replaces a query method on the given model object with a stub. The query
 * will still operate on a callback, and allow full access to waterline's
 * deferred object. However, the query will not cause any I/O and instead
 * will immediately resolve to the given result.
 * 
 * If you pass an error object, the query will reject with the error.
 * 
 * The original query method on the model object can be restored by calling 
 * model.method.restore() or stub.restore()
 * 
 * @param {Object} model Waterline model object
 * @param {string} method Query method name
 * @param {*} result Object or Error
 * @returns {Object} Sinon stub

module.exports = function(model, method, result) {
  var originalMethod = model[method];
  return sinon.stub(model, method, function(criteria, cb) {
    if(!_.isFunction(cb)) {
      //pass-through to the deferred object
      return originalMethod(criteria, cb);
    }
    if(util.isError(result)) {
      return cb(result);
    }
    else if(_.isArray(result)) {
      return cb(null, _.map(result, function(data) {
        return new model._model(data);

OMG!! I just found the pendant of this for sails/waterline v1.x!

model._transformer.unserialize(record);
