RoutingCollection

RoutingCollection is an abstraction of a collection that integrates with the Oro routing system. It automatically keeps itself in sync whenever the route or collection state changes.

Basic Usage

var CommentCollection = RoutingCollection.extend({
    routeDefaults: {
        routeName: 'oro_api_comment_get_items',
        routeQueryParameterNames: ['page', 'limit']
    },

    stateDefaults: {
        page: 1,
        limit: 10
    },

    // provide access to route
    setPage: function (pageNo) {
        this._route.set({page: pageNo});
    }
});

var commentCollection = new CommentCollection([], {
    routeParameters: {
        // specify required parameters
        relationId: 123,
        relationClass: 'Some_Class'
    }
});

// load first page (api/rest/latest/relation/Some_Class/123/comment?limit=10&page=1)
commentCollection.fetch();

// load second page (api/rest/latest/relation/Some_Class/123/comment?limit=10&page=2)
commentCollection.setPage(2)

Properties

routingCollection._route : RouteModel

Route object used to generate URLs. The collection will reload automatically whenever the route changes. Attributes of the route will be available in views as <%= route.page %>.

Access to route attributes should be implemented in descendant classes (e.g., setPage() or setPerPage()).

Kind: instance property of RoutingCollection Access: protected

routingCollection._state : BaseModel

State of the collection. Must include both settings and server response data, such as totalItemsQuantity. Attributes are accessible in views as <%= state.totalItemsQuantity %>.

The stateChange event is triggered whenever the state changes. Override parse() to add server response values to the state.

Kind: instance property of RoutingCollection Access: protected

routingCollection.routeDefaults : Object

Default route attributes.

Kind: instance property of RoutingCollection

routingCollection.stateDefaults : Object

Default state attributes.

Kind: instance property of RoutingCollection
