Is it possible to get the current User’s roles accessible in a remote method in Loopback?
This can happen for many reasons, one is that the Role model is not related to your User model (see here for brief explanation). Can you check that? Other than that, it's probably that first argument (context) which we need to have better documentation on ( sorry :( ). If...
LoopBack: How to Dynamically Create Custom REST Endpoints In Code (On The Fly)
rest,dynamic,endpoint,loopbackjs,strongloop
You can create a "remote method" within a model's JS file, this adds the API hook "at runtime", although it is at startup. That said, I think you could use the same functions to add the endpoint any time, not just at startup (although I've never tried): Inside /common/models/MyModel.js module.exports...

loopbackjs: Attach a model to different datasources
As @superkhau pointed above, each LoopBack Model can be attached to a single data-source only. You can create (subclass) a new model for each datasource you want to use. Then you can either expose these per-datasource models via unique REST URLs, or you can implement a wrapper model that will...
LoopBack Remote Methods and Access to Model Data
Typically, you can accomplish most things you'd want to do such as querying and accessing model data (CRUD operations) through the built-in methods that all models get; see http://docs.strongloop.com/display/LB/Working+with+data. Defining a remote method (custom REST endpoint) for these would be redundant. You access the standard model CRUD Node APIs (e.g....

Loopback ACL: Create a User with a Role
I know this area of the docs needs some work, and I'm working to improve it as soon as possible. We're also going to clean up and improve the API docs.

strong-pm only sets a PORT environment variable, which the app is responsible for honouring.
