# Allows for a relationship to be treated like any other attribute of a model class. You define
# named relationships in your model class using this method. You then have access to several
# helper methods to list, append, and remove objects from the list of relationships.
# ====Examples to define two relationships
# class AudioRecord < ActiveFedora::Base
#
# has_relationship "oral_history", :has_part, :inbound=>true, :type=>OralHistory
# has_relationship "similar_audio", :has_part, :type=>AudioRecord
#
# The first two parameters are required:
# name: relationship name
# predicate: predicate for the relationship
# opts:
# possible parameters
# :inbound => if true loads an external relationship via Solr (defaults to false)
# :type => The type of model to use when instantiated an object from the pid in this relationship (defaults to ActiveFedora::Base)
#
# If inbound is true it expects the relationship to be defined by another object's RELS-EXT
# and to load that relationship from Solr. Otherwise, if inbound is true the relationship is stored in
# this object's RELS-EXT datastream
#
# Word of caution - The same predicate may not be used twice for two inbound or two outbound relationships. However, it may be used twice if one is inbound
# and one is outbound as shown in the example above. A full list of possible predicates are defined by PREDICATE_MAPPINGS
#
# For the oral_history relationship in the example above the following helper methods are created:
# oral_history: returns array of OralHistory objects that have this AudioRecord with predicate :has_part
# oral_history_ids: Return array of pids for OralHistory objects that have this AudioRecord with predicate :has_part
#
# For the outbound relationship "similar_audio" there are two additional methods to append and remove objects from that relationship
# since it is managed internally:
# similar_audio: Return array of AudioRecord objects that have been added to similar_audio relationship
# similar_audio_ids: Return array of AudioRecord object pids that have been added to similar_audio relationship
# similar_audio_append: Add an AudioRecord object to the similar_audio relationship
# similar_audio_remove: Remove an AudioRecord from the similar_audio relationship
