How do I access loopback data in the server?

I am currently using loopback (http://loopback.io/) to run an application, while most of the data is accessed on the front end using the angular SDK I also have a socket connection where I'd like to access this data.

In server/server.js I've got

var loopback = require('loopback');
var app = module.exports = loopback();

if (require.main === module) {
    //app.start();
    app.io = require('socket.io')(app.start());
    app.io.on('connection', gameControl.onConnect);
}

Which runs the following in server/controllers/gameController.js

exports.onConnect = function(socket) { ... }

In this file I'd like to call my models, something like

Users.find({}, function(res) {
    //Do some stuff
});

How do I do this? I don't know what to 'require' :/

Any help appreciated!
