##.get
```js
.get(String propertyName|int index) -> Promise
```
This is a convenience method for doing:
```js
promise.then(function(obj) {
return obj[propertyName];
});
```
For example:
```js
db.query("...")
.get(0)
.then(function(firstRow) {
});
```
If `index` is negative, the indexed load will become `obj.length + index`. So that -1 can be used to read last item
in the array, -2 to read the second last and so on. For example:
```js
Promise.resolve([1,2,3]).get(-1).then(function(value) {
console.log(value); // 3
});
```
If the `index` is still negative after `obj.length + index`, it will be clamped to 0.
