fresh() doesn't call any lifecycle Hook

Describe the bug

I need to listen for the lifecycle hook inside the Model when the fresh() is called , but no any lifecycle hook is listening to fresh() while if i use save() it works

For now i'm using this as a workaround

const repo = useRepo(REPO_NAME)
// clear everything
repo.flush()
// then save , i.e to trigger the lifecycle
repo.save(NEW_DATA)

ideally fresh() should also be a lifecycle hook trigger

Actually, it can be useful, if you have one mutator that doesn't trigger the hooks. For example, if you need to save raw data from a backend.

@harmyderoman I agree with you , But the issue is that in most cases we need to check the hooks ( as we're using saving
and other hooks for other functions )

May be we can add an optional raw parameter like {raw:true} as the last config object and if raw is true we can keep it as it is , otherwise we can listen for the hooks

Hmmm interesting. I try to get my thoughts around that. You both have valid points.
I think flush is getting hooks and i also add the option to avoid hooks.

Ran into this today - I wanted to use lifecycle hooks to normalise & process raw data from the backend into a predictable and useful format, so it was unexpected that certain insertion methods simply ignore all hooks. From this perspective, IMHO this behaviour feels like a gotcha, and almost even defeats the very purpose of hooks.

I can definitely understand a use case for wanting to initiate the store with data without firing hooks - but this feels like something you should explicitly express during the action (such as the suggested {raw: true} or similar), and not inherent behaviour you need to know to override or avoid.

In the interim, this note should be added to the documentation, because neither the Inserting Data nor the Lifecycle Hooks pages describe this behaviour, and I only learned about it from this issue after spending slightly too long debugging 😅

Implemented in #2036 (v2.0.0, pending review): fresh() now fires saving/creating before and saved/created after persisting, per record. A before hook returning false excludes that record. If you want the old raw behaviour (e.g. seeding the store without hooks), pass fresh(data, { raw: true }) — the opt-out flag suggested here. The docs now also state explicitly which methods fire which hooks.
