I have the following implementation with fastapi.
My current problem is that I can't for the life of me do an early init on the tortoise models to get the relationship back in the schema.
I've tried dumping the following line basically everywhere and it just doesn't seem to work.
Tortoise.init_models(["models.user", "models.group"], "models")
i've also tried using prefetch_related this way but that doesn't work either
GetGroup.from_queryset(Group.get(id=3).prefetch_related('owner'))
I've been googling around for hours and haven't found a concrete answer/way to get this to properly work.

As you can see that last line GetGroup.schema(), never returns the relationship.

mind you it does that for a few seconds and then the application starts correctly, i've also tried separating the pydantic models creation in a separate folder called 'schema' and that didn't do anything either
so i've finally found an answer and i'm gonna leave it here in case some poor soul stumbles upon this question
the trick was to move
from database.database import init_db
to the top of the main.py file
and add
Tortoise.init_models(["models.user", "models.group"], "models")
below the init_db() function so that it's called upon before the register_tortoise function executes and all the models are initialized
