bookshelf-relationships

Bookshelf currently doesn't have a way to list relationships.

Install

npm install bookshelf-relationships --save

Then add this to where you are building your bookshelf object:

var bookshelf = require('bookshelf')(knex);
bookshelf.plugin(require('bookshelf-relationships'));

Usage

Now you can add you relationship functions to a relationships like below. They will also get added to the model directly so don't worry all code and plug-ins will still work.

var Post = bookshelf.Model.extend({
  tableName: 'posts',
 
  relationships: {
    comments: function() {
      return this.hasMany('Comment');
    }
  }
});

Now you will be able to access the function names via model.relationships like so:

return Post.forge({ text: 'Test Post'}).save().then(function(post) {
 
  Object.keys(post.relationships).forEach(function(key) {
 
    //list out relationship and the meta info for it
    console.log(key, post.related(key).relatedData);
 
  });
});
