Package @ember-data/model
In EmberData a Model is a class defining the attributes and relationships
of a specific resource type (model name). In this sense it represents a static "schema".
Data for individual resources fetched from your API is presented
to the UI via instances of the Models you define.
An instantiated Model is refered to as a record.
When we refer to the ModelClass we are referring to the class definition
and the static schema methods present on it.
When we refer to a record we refer to a specific class instance presenting
the resource data for a given type and id.

import Model, { attr, belongsTo, hasMany } from '@ember-data/model';
export default Model.extend({
name: attr(),
dog: belongsTo('pet', { inverse: 'owners', async: false }),
friends: hasMany('person', { inverse: 'friends', async: true }),
}); |
modelName convention
By convention, the name of a given model (its type) matches the name
of the file in the app/models folder and should be lowercase, singular
and dasherized.
