//Client Model
module.exports = {
		
  connection: "mongodbServer",
  attributes: {
    url: {
      type: 'string',
      required: true
    },

    clientid: {
      type: 'string',
      required: true
    },

    // e.g., "cm"
    clientpassword: {
      type: 'string',
      required: true
    },
    
    email:{
        type:'string', required:true
    },
    scopes: {
    	collection:"scope",
    	via: "owner"
    }
    
  }
}

//Scope model

module.exports = {
  connection: "mongodbServer",
  attributes: {

   controller : { type: 'string' },

    method : { type: 'string' },
    
    owner: {
  	  model: "client"
    }
  }
};


//MY QUERY
Client.findOne({clientid:decoded.clientid, scopes:{controller:controller, method:method}}).exec(function(err,client) .....

Client in this case is always null
