A proper application code to start the server and a service to connect to the database

index.js

// index.js

const http = require('http');

const kernel = require('@rezeus/kernel');

require('./services_database');

kernel.on('error', (err) => {
  // TODO Handle error
});

kernel.once('booted', () => {
  // Kernel was booted. Here you can start the server.

  // Code excerpted from https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/getting-started-guide/
  // and slightly modified

  const server = http.createServer(server.callback());

  const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
    // Now you can use Sequelize to query some data;
    // kernel.sequelize.query('SELECT * FROM my_table').then((result) => { ... }).catch(...);

    res.statusCode = 200;
    res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
    res.end('Hello World\n');
  });

  server.listen('127.0.0.1', 3000, () => {
    console.log('Server running on port 3000');
  });
});

kernel.boot();

services_database.js

// services/database.js

const Sequelize = require('sequelize');

const kernel = require('@rezeus/kernel');

kernel.on('booting_backing', () => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  // Code excerpted from http://docs.sequelizejs.com/manual/installation/getting-started

  // Setting up a connection
  const sequelize = new Sequelize('database', 'username', 'password', {
    host: 'localhost',
    dialect: 'mysql',
    operatorsAliases: false,

    pool: {

  // Test the connection
  sequelize
