Overview

A collection of Models

Item Type

item_type is a class attribute -- you can make a "collection of Foo's" by subclassing ModelCollection and set the item item_type at the class level:

class ClusterCollection < ModelCollection
  self.item_type = Cluster
end

A model collection serializes as an array does, but indexes labelled objects as a hash does.
