hasOne returning an array

[scriby]

The backend I'm working with has some endpoints that are modeled in a way such that I'm finding difficult to model with restmod.

As an example: /things/:thingId/options/me

In the above example, I might want to model it like this:

restmod.model('things').mix({
  options: { hasMany: restmod.model().mix({
    me: { hasOne: restmod.model() }
  })}
});

That doesn't quite work, because me returns an array of options instead of a single object.

I am wondering if this works:

restmod.model('things').mix({
  myOptions: { hasMany: restmod.model(), path: 'options/me' }
});

It seems like I should be able to fetch them with thing.$new(id).myOptions.$fetch().

Does that seem like the best way to go? Do you have any other insights (other than changing the URL to /things/:thingId/options?mine=true)?

I think your second approach it's fine, can't think on another way.

Maybe this could better be solved by supporting collection suffix and collection scopes, so you could do something like:

restmod.model().mix({
  options: { hasMany: 'Option', scopes: {
    me: { path: 'me' },
    others: { params: { other: true  } } 
  }
});

I'm currently working in a hasMany overhaul, I'll take this into consideration.
