Serializing one-to-one relationships

I’m trying to serialize a one-to-one relationship and I can’t figure out to to setup my models and serializers to make this work.

// models/user.js
import { Model } from 'ember-cli-mirage';

export default Model.extend({
  // Should some relationship go here?
})

// models/address.js
import { Model, belongsTo } from 'ember-cli-mirage';

export default Model.extend({
  user: belongsTo()
});

// serializers/user.js
import ApplicationSerializer from './application';

export default ApplicationSerializer.extend({
  relationships: ['address']
});

With this setup, we have address.user and address.userId, but there is no user.address. When serializing user, the address isn’t included in the payload. I was expecting a hasOne() model relationship since we’re dealing with foreign keys in a database, but I see this doesn’t exist.

This may be a conceptual misunderstanding so maybe something could be added to the models documentation to clarify how this should work.

I would say to probably use hasMany on this side of the relationship, and clean up the data in Serializer#serialize.

I am actually working through the ORM updates right now, and I’m about halfway through. I have one-to-one and reflexive relationships working at the moment. I’d estimate a few more weeks before this all makes it into master.
