Missing where attribute in the options parameter ERROR

I am getting an error when I try to use the update code as seen in the video. Apparently Sequilize has been updated so that the options parameter is not optional. I found this Stack Overflow post, with an answer that links to the updated documentation.

From that post and info in the documentation I was able to work out this change in the code:

router.post('/:id/edit', asyncHandler(async (req, res) => {
  const article = await Article.findByPk(req.params.id);
  const selector = { 
    where: { id: article.id }
  };
  await Article.update(req.body, selector);
  res.redirect("/articles/" + article.id);
}));

Note the selector variable that gets passed into the update method.
