Retrieving Relationships

Relationships can be used in two ways.

The first is as a getter. Calling user.getPosts() will execute the relationship, cache the result, and return it.

var posts = user.getPosts();

The second is as a relationship. Calling user.posts() returns a Relationship instance to retrieve the posts that can be further constrained. A Relationship is backed by qb as well, so feel free to call any qb method to further constrain the relationship.

var newestPosts = user.posts().orderBy( "publishedDate", "desc" ).get();
