+# Automatic Relation Loading Strategies
+
+## Overview
+
+**NEW:** The database adapters now **automatically** choose the optimal loading strategy by inspecting your model's relationship tags!
+
+Simply use `PreloadRelation()` and the system automatically:
+- Detects relationship type from Bun/GORM tags
+- Uses **JOIN** for many-to-one and one-to-one (efficient, no duplication)
+- Uses **separate query** for one-to-many and many-to-many (avoids duplication)
+
+## How It Works
+
+```go
+// Just write this - the system handles the rest!
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&links).
+    PreloadRelation("Provider").  // ✓ Auto-detects belongs-to → uses JOIN
+    PreloadRelation("Tags").      // ✓ Auto-detects has-many → uses separate query
+    Scan(ctx, &links)
+```
+
+### Detection Logic
+
+The system inspects your model's struct tags:
+
+**Bun models:**
+```go
+type Link struct {
+    Provider   *Provider `bun:"rel:belongs-to"`   // → Detected: belongs-to → JOIN
+    Tags       []Tag     `bun:"rel:has-many"`     // → Detected: has-many → Separate query
+}
+```
+
+**GORM models:**
+```go
+type Link struct {
+    ProviderID int
+    Provider   *Provider `gorm:"foreignKey:ProviderID"`  // → Detected: belongs-to → JOIN
+    Tags       []Tag     `gorm:"many2many:link_tags"`    // → Detected: many-to-many → Separate query
+}
+```
+
+**Type inference (fallback):**
+- `[]Type` (slice) → has-many → Separate query
+- `*Type` (pointer) → belongs-to → JOIN
+- `Type` (struct) → belongs-to → JOIN
+
+### What Gets Logged
+
+Enable debug logging to see strategy selection:
+
+```go
+bunAdapter.EnableQueryDebug()
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```
+DEBUG: PreloadRelation 'Provider' detected as: belongs-to
+INFO:  Using JOIN strategy for belongs-to relation 'Provider'
+DEBUG: PreloadRelation 'Links' detected as: has-many
+DEBUG: Using separate query for has-many relation 'Links'
+```
+
+## Relationship Types
+
+| Bun Tag | GORM Pattern | Field Type | Strategy | Why |
+|---------|--------------|------------|----------|-----|
+| `rel:has-many` | Slice field | `[]Type` | Separate Query | Avoids duplicating parent data |
+| `rel:belongs-to` | `foreignKey:` | `*Type` | JOIN | Single parent, no duplication |
+| `rel:has-one` | Single pointer | `*Type` | JOIN | One-to-one, no duplication |
+| `rel:many-to-many` | `many2many:` | `[]Type` | Separate Query | Complex join, avoid cartesian |
+
+## Manual Override
+
+If you need to force a specific strategy, use `JoinRelation()`:
+
+```go
+// Force JOIN even for has-many (not recommended)
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&providers).
+    JoinRelation("Links").  // Explicitly use JOIN
+    Scan(ctx, &providers)
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+### Automatic Strategy Selection (Recommended)
+
+```go
+// Example 1: Loading parent provider for each link
+// System detects belongs-to → uses JOIN automatically
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&links).
+    PreloadRelation("Provider", func(q common.SelectQuery) common.SelectQuery {
+        return q.Where("active = ?", true)
+    }).
+    Scan(ctx, &links)
+
+// Generated SQL: Single query with JOIN
+// SELECT links.*, providers.*
+// FROM links
+// LEFT JOIN providers ON links.provider_id = providers.id
+// WHERE providers.active = true
+
+// Example 2: Loading child links for each provider
+// System detects has-many → uses separate query automatically
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&providers).
+    PreloadRelation("Links", func(q common.SelectQuery) common.SelectQuery {
+        return q.Where("active = ?", true)
+    }).
+    Scan(ctx, &providers)
+
+// Generated SQL: Two queries
+// Query 1: SELECT * FROM providers
+// Query 2: SELECT * FROM links
+//          WHERE provider_id IN (1, 2, 3, ...)
+//          AND active = true
+```
+
+### Mixed Relationships
+
+```go
+type Order struct {
+    ID         int
+    CustomerID int
+    Customer   *Customer `bun:"rel:belongs-to"`    // JOIN
+    Items      []Item    `bun:"rel:has-many"`      // Separate
+    Invoice    *Invoice  `bun:"rel:has-one"`       // JOIN
+}
+
+// All three handled optimally!
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&orders).
+    PreloadRelation("Customer").  // → JOIN (many-to-one)
+    PreloadRelation("Items").     // → Separate (one-to-many)
+    PreloadRelation("Invoice").   // → JOIN (one-to-one)
+    Scan(ctx, &orders)
+```
+
+## Performance Benefits
+
+### Before (Manual Strategy Selection)
+
+```go
+// You had to remember which to use:
+.PreloadRelation("Provider")  // Should I use PreloadRelation or JoinRelation?
+.PreloadRelation("Links")     // Which is more efficient here?
+```
+
+### After (Automatic Selection)
+
+```go
+// Just use PreloadRelation everywhere:
+.PreloadRelation("Provider")  // ✓ System uses JOIN automatically
+.PreloadRelation("Links")     // ✓ System uses separate query automatically
+```
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+**No changes needed!** If you're already using `PreloadRelation()`, it now automatically optimizes:
+
+```go
+// Before: Always used separate query
+.PreloadRelation("Provider")  // Inefficient: extra round trip
+
+// After: Automatic optimization
+.PreloadRelation("Provider")  // ✓ Now uses JOIN automatically!
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Supported Bun Tags
+- `rel:has-many` → Separate query
+- `rel:belongs-to` → JOIN
+- `rel:has-one` → JOIN
+- `rel:many-to-many` or `rel:m2m` → Separate query
+
+### Supported GORM Patterns
+- `many2many:` tag → Separate query
+- `foreignKey:` tag → JOIN (belongs-to)
+- `[]Type` slice without many2many → Separate query (has-many)
+- `*Type` pointer with foreignKey → JOIN (belongs-to)
+- `*Type` pointer without foreignKey → JOIN (has-one)
+
+### Fallback Behavior
+- `[]Type` (slice) → Separate query (safe default for collections)
+- `*Type` or `Type` (single) → JOIN (safe default for single relations)
+- Unknown → Separate query (safest default)
+
+## Debugging
+
+To see strategy selection in action:
+
+```go
+// Enable debug logging
+bunAdapter.EnableQueryDebug()  // or gormAdapter.EnableQueryDebug()
+
+// Run your query
+db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&records).
+    PreloadRelation("RelationName").
+    Scan(ctx, &records)
+
+// Check logs for:
+// - "PreloadRelation 'X' detected as: belongs-to"
+// - "Using JOIN strategy for belongs-to relation 'X'"
+// - Actual SQL queries executed
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use PreloadRelation() for everything** - Let the system optimize
+2. **Define proper relationship tags** - Ensures correct detection
+3. **Only use JoinRelation() for overrides** - When you know better than auto-detection
+4. **Enable debug logging during development** - Verify optimal strategies are chosen
+5. **Trust the system** - It's designed to choose correctly based on relationship type

+# OpenAPI Generator for ResolveSpec
+
+This package provides automatic OpenAPI 3.0 specification generation for ResolveSpec, RestheadSpec, and FuncSpec API frameworks.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Automatic Schema Generation**: Generates OpenAPI schemas from Go struct models
+- **Multiple Framework Support**: Works with RestheadSpec, ResolveSpec, and FuncSpec
+- **Dynamic Endpoint Discovery**: Automatically discovers all registered models and generates paths
+- **Query Parameter Access**: Access spec via `?openapi` on any endpoint or via `/openapi`
+- **Comprehensive Documentation**: Includes all request/response schemas, parameters, and security schemes
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### RestheadSpec Example
+
+```go
+import (
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/openapi"
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+    "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // 1. Create handler
+    handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+    // 2. Register models
+    handler.registry.RegisterModel("public.users", User{})
+    handler.registry.RegisterModel("public.products", Product{})
+
+    // 3. Configure OpenAPI generator
+    handler.SetOpenAPIGenerator(func() (string, error) {
+        generator := openapi.NewGenerator(openapi.GeneratorConfig{
+            Title:       "My API",
+            Description: "API documentation",
+            Version:     "1.0.0",
+            BaseURL:     "http://localhost:8080",
+            Registry:    handler.registry.(*modelregistry.DefaultModelRegistry),
+            IncludeRestheadSpec: true,
+            IncludeResolveSpec:  false,
+            IncludeFuncSpec:     false,
+        })
+        return generator.GenerateJSON()
+    })
+
+    // 4. Setup routes (automatically includes /openapi endpoint)
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+    restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+    // Start server
+    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+}
+```
+
+### ResolveSpec Example
+
+```go
+func main() {
+    // 1. Create handler
+    handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+    // 2. Register models
+    handler.RegisterModel("public", "users", User{})
+    handler.RegisterModel("public", "products", Product{})
+
+    // 3. Configure OpenAPI generator
+    handler.SetOpenAPIGenerator(func() (string, error) {
+        generator := openapi.NewGenerator(openapi.GeneratorConfig{
+            Title:       "My API",
+            Version:     "1.0.0",
+            Registry:    handler.registry.(*modelregistry.DefaultModelRegistry),
+            IncludeResolveSpec: true,
+        })
+        return generator.GenerateJSON()
+    })
+
+    // 4. Setup routes
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+    resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+}
+```
+
+## Accessing the OpenAPI Specification
+
+Once configured, the OpenAPI spec is available in two ways:
+
+### 1. Global `/openapi` Endpoint
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:8080/openapi
+```
+
+Returns the complete OpenAPI specification for all registered models.
+
+### 2. Query Parameter on Any Endpoint
+
+```bash
+# RestheadSpec
+curl http://localhost:8080/public/users?openapi
+
+# ResolveSpec
+curl http://localhost:8080/resolve/public/users?openapi
+```
+
+Returns the same OpenAPI specification as `/openapi`.
+
+## Generated Endpoints
+
+### RestheadSpec
+
+For each registered model (e.g., `public.users`), the following paths are generated:
+
+- `GET /public/users` - List records with header-based filtering
+- `POST /public/users` - Create a new record
+- `GET /public/users/{id}` - Get a single record
+- `PUT /public/users/{id}` - Update a record
+- `PATCH /public/users/{id}` - Partially update a record
+- `DELETE /public/users/{id}` - Delete a record
+- `GET /public/users/metadata` - Get table metadata
+- `OPTIONS /public/users` - CORS preflight
+
+### ResolveSpec
+
+For each registered model (e.g., `public.users`), the following paths are generated:
+
+- `POST /resolve/public/users` - Execute operations (read, create, meta)
+- `POST /resolve/public/users/{id}` - Execute operations (update, delete)
+- `GET /resolve/public/users` - Get metadata
+- `OPTIONS /resolve/public/users` - CORS preflight
+
+## Schema Generation
+
+The generator automatically extracts information from your Go struct tags:
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID        int       `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey" description:"User ID"`
+    Name      string    `json:"name" gorm:"not null" description:"User's full name"`
+    Email     string    `json:"email" gorm:"unique" description:"Email address"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at" description:"Creation timestamp"`
+    Roles     []string  `json:"roles" description:"User roles"`
+}
+```
+
+This generates an OpenAPI schema with:
+- Property names from `json` tags
+- Required fields from `gorm:"not null"` and non-pointer types
+- Descriptions from `description` tags
+- Proper type mappings (int → integer, time.Time → string with format: date-time, etc.)
+
+## RestheadSpec Headers
+
+The generator documents all RestheadSpec HTTP headers:
+
+- `X-Filters` - JSON array of filter conditions
+- `X-Columns` - Comma-separated columns to select
+- `X-Sort` - JSON array of sort specifications
+- `X-Limit` - Maximum records to return
+- `X-Offset` - Records to skip
+- `X-Preload` - Relations to eager load
+- `X-Expand` - Relations to expand (LEFT JOIN)
+- `X-Distinct` - Enable DISTINCT queries
+- `X-Response-Format` - Response format (detail, simple, syncfusion)
+- `X-Clean-JSON` - Remove null/empty fields
+- `X-Custom-SQL-Where` - Custom WHERE clause (AND)
+- `X-Custom-SQL-Or` - Custom WHERE clause (OR)
+
+## ResolveSpec Request Body
+
+The generator documents the ResolveSpec request body structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "data": {},
+  "id": 123,
+  "options": {
+    "limit": 10,
+    "offset": 0,
+    "filters": [
+      {"column": "status", "operator": "eq", "value": "active"}
+    ],
+    "sort": [
+      {"column": "created_at", "direction": "desc"}
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Security Schemes
+
+The generator automatically includes common security schemes:
+
+- **BearerAuth**: JWT Bearer token authentication
+- **SessionToken**: Session token in Authorization header
+- **CookieAuth**: Cookie-based session authentication
+- **HeaderAuth**: Header-based user authentication (X-User-ID)
+
+## FuncSpec Custom Endpoints
+
+For FuncSpec, you can manually register custom SQL endpoints:
+
+```go
+funcSpecEndpoints := map[string]openapi.FuncSpecEndpoint{
+    "/api/reports/sales": {
+        Path:        "/api/reports/sales",
+        Method:      "GET",
+        Summary:     "Get sales report",
+        Description: "Returns sales data for specified date range",
+        SQLQuery:    "SELECT * FROM sales WHERE date BETWEEN [start_date] AND [end_date]",
+        Parameters:  []string{"start_date", "end_date"},
+    },
+}
+
+generator := openapi.NewGenerator(openapi.GeneratorConfig{
+    // ... other config
+    IncludeFuncSpec:   true,
+    FuncSpecEndpoints: funcSpecEndpoints,
+})
+```
+
+## Combining Multiple Frameworks
+
+You can generate a unified OpenAPI spec that includes multiple frameworks:
+
+```go
+generator := openapi.NewGenerator(openapi.GeneratorConfig{
+    Title:       "Unified API",
+    Version:     "1.0.0",
+    Registry:    sharedRegistry,
+    IncludeRestheadSpec: true,
+    IncludeResolveSpec:  true,
+    IncludeFuncSpec:     true,
+    FuncSpecEndpoints:   funcSpecEndpoints,
+})
+```
+
+This will generate a complete spec with all endpoints from all frameworks.
+
+## Advanced Customization
+
+You can customize the generated spec further:
+
+```go
+handler.SetOpenAPIGenerator(func() (string, error) {
+    generator := openapi.NewGenerator(config)
+
+    // Generate initial spec
+    spec, err := generator.Generate()
+    if err != nil {
+        return "", err
+    }
+
+    // Add contact information
+    spec.Info.Contact = &openapi.Contact{
+        Name:  "API Support",
+        Email: "support@example.com",
+        URL:   "https://example.com/support",
+    }
+
+    // Add additional servers
+    spec.Servers = append(spec.Servers, openapi.Server{
+        URL:         "https://staging.example.com",
+        Description: "Staging Server",
+    })
+
+    // Convert back to JSON
+    data, _ := json.MarshalIndent(spec, "", "  ")
+    return string(data), nil
+})
+```
+
+## Using with Swagger UI
+
+You can serve the generated OpenAPI spec with Swagger UI:
+
+1. Get the spec from `/openapi`
+2. Load it in Swagger UI at `https://petstore.swagger.io/`
+3. Or self-host Swagger UI and point it to your `/openapi` endpoint
+
+Example with self-hosted Swagger UI:
+
+```go
+// Serve Swagger UI static files
+router.PathPrefix("/swagger/").Handler(
+    http.StripPrefix("/swagger/", http.FileServer(http.Dir("./swagger-ui"))),
+)
+
+// Configure Swagger UI to use /openapi
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+You can test the OpenAPI endpoint:
+
+```bash
+# Get the full spec
+curl http://localhost:8080/openapi | jq
+
+# Validate with openapi-generator
+openapi-generator validate -i http://localhost:8080/openapi
+
+# Generate client SDKs
+openapi-generator generate -i http://localhost:8080/openapi -g typescript-fetch -o ./client
+```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+See `example.go` in this package for complete, runnable examples including:
+- Basic RestheadSpec setup
+- Basic ResolveSpec setup
+- Combining both frameworks
+- Adding FuncSpec endpoints
+- Advanced customization
