Method: ActiveCouch::Base.has_many

Defined in:
lib/active_couch/base.rb

.has_many(name, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Defines an array of objects which are ‘children’ of this class. The has_many function guesses the class of the child, based on the name of the association, but can be over-ridden by the :class key in the options hash.

Examples:

class Person < ActiveCouch::Base
  has :name
end

class GrandPerson < ActiveCouch::Base
  has_many :people # which will create an empty array which can contain 
                   # Person objects
end
