I have a resource with a key of artistResource and a noun of ‘famous painter’.  My resource has a list, search and create operation.  In my main index.js file I would like to have a SearchOrCreate action that leverages the search and create operations from my artistResource resource.  Unfortunately I get a validation error with any combination of references to the resource’s operations.

Error:

== Property
App.searchOrCreates.artistResource
== Message
requires property "search"

Version 1 - index.js:

    searchOrCreates: {
artistResource.key]: {
key: artistResource.key,
display: {
label: 'Find or Create an artist.',
description: 'Find or Create Painters',
},
search: artistResource.search.key,
create: artistResource.create.key,
},

Version 2 - index.js: 

    searchOrCreates: {
rartistResource.key]: {
key: artistResource.key,
display: {
label: 'Find or Create an artist.',
description: 'Find or Create Painters',
},
search: artistResourceSearch.key,
create: artistResourceCreate.key,
},

Partial artistResource.js

module.exports = {
key: 'artistResource',
noun: 'famous painter',

list: {
display: {
label: 'Famous Painter',
description: 'Lists all artists.',
hidden: true
},
