use as a mixin

Add the mixins property to your server/model-config.json like the following:

{
  "_meta": {
    "sources": [
      "loopback/common/models",
      "loopback/server/models",
      "../common/models",
      "./models"
    ],
    "mixins": [
      "loopback/common/mixins",
      "../node_modules/loopback-remote-routing",
      "../common/mixins"
    ]
  }
}

To use with your Models add the mixins attribute to the definition object of your model config.

  {
    "name": "Color",
    "properties": {
      "name": {
        "type": "string",
      }
    },
    "mixins": {
      "RemoteRouting" : {
        "only": [
          "@find"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
