Problem with ottoman not resolving the references - node.js

Question

I have two models in my ottoman 1.0.5 setup. One holds contact info which includes an emails array of docs and then the email doc. I can insert new contacts fine as well as emails in docs and the corresponding link in the contact doc for the new email.
Here is my model
const ottoman = require("ottoman")
ottoman.bucket = require("../app").bucket
var ContactModel = ottoman.model("Contact",{
timestamp: {
type: "Date",
default: function() {return new Date()}
},
first_name : "string",
last_name : "string",
emails: [
{
ref:"Email"
}
]} )
var EmailModel = ottoman.model("Email",{
timestamp: {
type: "Date",
default: function() {return new Date()}
},
type : "string",
address : "string",
name: "string"
} )
module.exports = {
ContactModel : ContactModel,
EmailModel : EmailModel
}
Now to get an contact and all its emails i use this function
app.get("/contacts/:id", function(req, res){
model.ContactModel.getById(req.params.id,{load: ["emails"]}, function(error, contact){
if(error) {
res.status(400).json({ Success: false , Error: error, Message: ""})
}
res.status(200).json({ Success: true , Error: "", Message: "", Data : contact})
})
})
Which returns me this
{
"Success": true,
"Error": "",
"Message": "",
"Data": {
"timestamp": "2019-01-30T23:59:59.188Z",
"emails": [
{
"$ref": "Email",
"$id": "3ec07ba0-aaec-4fd4-a207-c4272cef8d66"
}
],
"_id": "0112f774-4b5d-4b73-b784-60fa9fa2f9ff",
"first_name": "Test",
"last_name": "User"
}
}
if i go and log the contact to my console i get this
OttomanModel(`Contact`, loaded, key:Contact|0112f774-4b5d-4b73-b784-60fa9fa2f9ff, {
timestamp: 2019-01-30T23:59:59.188Z,
emails: [ OttomanModel(`Email`, loaded, key:Email|3ec07ba0-aaec-4fd4-a207-c4272cef8d66, {
timestamp: 2019-01-31T00:36:01.264Z,
_id: '3ec07ba0-aaec-4fd4-a207-c4272cef8d66',
type: 'work',
address: 'test#outlook.com',
name: 'Test Outlook',
}),
OttomanModel(`Email`, loaded, key:Email|93848b71-7696-4ef5-979d-05c19be9d593, {
timestamp: 2019-01-31T04:12:40.603Z,
_id: '93848b71-7696-4ef5-979d-05c19be9d593',
type: 'work',
address: 'newTest#outlook.com',
name: 'Test2 Outlook',
}) ],
_id: '0112f774-4b5d-4b73-b784-60fa9fa2f9ff',
first_name: 'Test',
last_name: 'User',
})
This shows that emails was resolved but why does it not show up in the returned json. On the other hand if i return contact.emails i get the resolved emails just fine. So i hope someone can shed some light on what i am missing here

I asked a similar question on the couchbase forum, and I also found out the solution:
(a slight difference that the result of my search is an array not an object like in your case)
forum.couchbase.com
app.get("/assets", (req, res) => {
AssetModel.find({}, { load: ["assetModelId", "assetGroupId", "assetTypeId"] }, (err, results) => {
if (err) return res.status(400).send("no asset found");
const assets = [];
results.map(asset => {
assets.push({...asset});
});
res.status(200).send(assets)
});
});
