attach

fun <T : StormifyAware> attach(target: T): T

Attaches the underlying Stormify instance to target so the target can use it for database operations without receiving it as an explicit parameter.

Works for any StormifyAware — entity / AutoTable subclasses and onl.ycode.stormify.biglist.PagedList instances. Returns target for fluent chaining.

// Manual stub — user knows the ID, lets Stormify lazy-load the rest
User user = stormify.attach(new User());
user.setId(42);
System.out.println(user.getName());  // triggers SELECT

// Paged list — attach before use (or rely on Stormify.defaultInstance)
PagedList<Company> list = stormify.attach(new PagedList<>(Company.class));
list.addColumn("name");
