#property(name, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Declare a property on a model class. Properties are not typed by default. You can store anything in a property that can be serialized into JSON. If you want a property to be of a custom class you have to define it using the :type option.

example:

class Book
  property :title
  property :year
  property :publisher, :type => Publisher
end
