module ROM

  # Base relation class
  #
  # Relation is a proxy for the dataset object provided by the adapter, it
  # forwards every method to the dataset that's why "native" interface of the
  # underlying adapter is available in the relation. This interface, however, is
  # considered to private and should not be used outside of the relation instance.
  #
  # ROM builds sub-classes of this class for every relation defined in the env
  # for easy inspection and extensibility - every adapter can provide extensions
  # for those sub-classes but there is always a vanilla relation instance stored
  # in the schema registry.
  #
  # Relation instances also have access to the experimental ROM::RA interface
  # giving in-memory relational operations that are very handy, especially when
  # dealing with joined relations or data coming from different sources.
