strongloop loopback find users role using loaded operation hook

I have cloned a https://github.com/beeman/loopback-angular-admin and I have created a couple of new roles using the loopback explorer and I am trying to get all the roles of a particular user when he logs in by loaded operation hook defined here - 

https://docs.strongloop.com/display/public/LB/Operation+hooks#Operationhooks-loaded

like this - 

user.observe('loaded', function appendRole(ctx, next){
    if(ctx.instance){
      user.findOne({
        where: {
          id: ctx.instance.id
        },
        include: {
          "relation":"roles"
        }
      })
    }
    next();
  })

so how do I return roles of a particular user using operation hooks. I am able to get all the roles of a user using loopback explorer using this api call 

http://localhost:80/api/users/567ce48d6503f9404b56bb3e/roles?access_token=gyPzW3rpr3uzve2bUHtZQWv8iV5PfZYW7QLicCs4GwIKTdNA33SeRAlgPIQef7AE

UPDATE :

So, I tried adding the following code to the user.js - 

user.observe('loaded', function appendRole(ctx, next){
    if(ctx.instance){
      console.log(ctx.instance.roles);
    }
    next();
  })

and I am getting the following output in the console - 

{ [Function]
  _receiver: 
   { username: '[email protected]',
     password: '$2a$10$Bubhaq1LXFyCUn.W1/pEOewLSqspcP2GQlONwGH98V4HqCOAc9522',
     email: '[email protected]',

so how do I get the roles of user using loaded operation hook

Did you try ctx.instance.roles?

UPDATE: Ah crap, that's right, I guess you'll need to do a lookup, but you can't use a user.find() since it will trigger an infinite loop on the loaded observe. Try something like this:

user.observe('loaded', function getRoleMappings(ctx, next) {

  var roleMapFilter = {
    where: {principalId: ctx.instance.id},
    include: ['role']
  };

  user.app.models.RoleMapping.find(roleMapFilter, function(err, roleMaps) {
    if (err) {
      console.log('roleMap', err);
      next(err);
    }

    console.log("roleMaps ", roleMaps);
    next();

  });


});

console.log("roleMaps ", roleMaps); should output something like:

roleMaps  [ 
  {
    id: 1,
    principalType: 'USER',
    principalId: '1',
    roleId: 1,
    role: { 
      id: 1,
      name: 'admin',

    } 
  },
  { 
    id: 2,
    principalType: 'USER',
    principalId: '1',
    roleId: 6,
    role: {
      id: 6,
      name: 'sales',
      description: null,

    } 
  }
