Relationship definition keystone via 2 collections

Question

I have the following models in my keystone.js project:

/* Bankaccount.js */

var BankAccount = new keystone.List('BankAccount');
BankAccount.add({
    owner: {type: Types.Relationship, ref: 'User', initial: true, index: true},
    iban: { type: Types.Text, initial: true, index: true, required: true}
    ...
});


/* Transaction.js*/

var Transaction = new keystone.List('Transaction', {track:true});

Transaction.add({
    customerBankAccount: {type: Types.Relationship, ref: 'BankAccount', initial: true, index: true, required: true },
    merchantBankAccount: {type: Types.Relationship, ref: 'BankAccount', initial: true, index: true, required: true },
    ...
});


/* User.js */

var User = new keystone.List('User', {track:true});

User.add({
    name: { type: Types.Name, initial: true, index: true},
    email: { type: Types.Email, initial: true, index: true}
    ...
});

Before registering my User model I want to link them back in the admin UI. For the Bankaccount linking I have:

// Linked Bank Accounts
User.relationship({
    path: 'bankAccounts',
    ref: 'BankAccount',
    refPath: 'owner'
});

Which shows the bankaccounts of the User.

But now I want to view the transactions per User. Is there a way to do this?

Something like: refPath: 'customerBankAccount.owner' (which doesn't work)

Or is this not supported by keystone?

This is currently not supported by Keystone, but you could add another reference to User in the Transaction schema to have them displayed in the Admin UI:

Transaction.add({
    customer: {type: Types.Relationship, ref: 'User', initial: true, index: true},
    ...
});

and:

// Linked Transactions
User.relationship({
    path: 'transactions',
    ref: 'Transaction',
    refPath: 'customer'
});
