In LoopBack, there are three ways to do this: Adding logic to models - adding remote methods, remote hooks and operation hooks. Defining boot... |
Adding remote methods to built-in models | To add a remote method to a built-in model, you can either extend the model and add the remote method to your new model, or add it in a boot script, as described here by way of example. This example adds a “greet” method the built-in User model.... |

Model hooks | Model hooks are deprecated, except for afterInitialize. |
Operation hooks | Operation hooks are triggered by all methods that execute a particular high-level create, read, update, or delete operation. |

See PersistedModel REST API for information on how the Node methods correspond to REST... |

Tutorial: Adding application logic | Demonstrates remote methods, remote hooks, model operation hooks, boot scripts, middleware, and using the email connector in a LoopBack application. |
