specify columns to load with relations

See original GitHub issue

Is it possible?

new User({id: 2}).fetch({
  withRelated: ['account'],
  columns: ['id', 'name', 'accountId']
})

I want to load ['id', 'name', 'accountId'] columns from users table and load ['balance', 'total'] from accounts table.

Yes - I had an undocumented method in knex called column which is now documented and working correctly in the just released 0.4.7… I believe that:

new User({id: 2}).fetch({
  withRelated: [{'account': function(qb) {
    qb.column('id', 'balance', 'total');
  }}],
  columns: ['id', 'name', 'accountId']
})

should take care of it (assuming id is the idAttribute of the account table. Give it a shot with the latest Knex and let me know if that works.
