### Polymorphism
Supports polymorphic has-many and has-one associations.

```
Note: polymorphic belongs-to and many-to-many are explicitly NOT supported, and will throw errors.
## Association Mode
Association Mode contains some helper methods to handle relationship things easily.
```go
// Start Association Mode
db.Model(&source).Association(fieldNameOfRelationship)
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages")
// source (user) need to have a valid primary key
// fieldNameOfRelationship ("Languages") need to be a valid relationship of source
// If not, it will return error, check it with:
// db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Error
// Query - Find out all related associations
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Find(&languages)
// Append - Append new associations for many2many, has_many, will replace current association for has_one, belongs_to
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Append([]Language{languageZH, languageEN})
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Append(Language{Name: "DE"})
// Delete - Remove relationship between source & passed arguments, won't delete those arguments
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Delete([]Language{languageZH, languageEN})
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Delete(languageZH, languageEN)
// Replace - Replace current associations with new one
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Replace([]Language{languageZH, languageEN})
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Replace(Language{Name: "DE"}, languageEN)
// Count - Return the count of current associations
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Count()
// Clear - Remove relationship between source & current associations, won't delete those associations
db.Model(&user).Association("Languages").Clear()
```
