http adapter for js-data

js-data-http Slack Status npm version Circle CI npm downloads Coverage Status

Quick Start

bower install --save js-data js-data-http or npm install --save js-data js-data-http.

Load js-data-http.js after js-data.js.

var store = new JSData.DS();
store.registerAdapter('http', new DSHttpAdapter(), { default: true });

// "store" will now use the http adapter for all async operations

Default Settings

When you create a new instance of DSHttpAdapter it will come with some defaults.

Setting defaults
// during construction
var httpAdapter = new DSHttpAdapter({
  suffix: '.json'
});
// during runtime
httpAdapter.defaults.basePath = '/api';
// during a method call
httpAdapter.find(User, 1, { basePath: '/otherApi' }).then(...);

serialize

Type: function

Serialize the payload into something your server will understand, if necessary. resourceConfig is the resource for this adapter operation. data is the payload from the data store.

Default:

function serialize(resourceConfig, data) {
  return data;
}

deserialize

Type: function

Take the response from your server and transform it into something the data store will understand, if necessary. resourceConfig is the resource for this adapter operation. data is the response from axios.

Default:

function deserialize(resourceConfig, data) {
  return data ? ('data' in data ? data.data : data) : data;
}

queryTransform

Type: function

Transform the query string parameters before the request is made. resourceConfig is the resource for this adapter operation. params is the object that will be serialized to the query string.

Default:

function queryTransform(resourceConfig, params) {
  return params;
}

httpConfig

Type: object

Configuration options for axios, the http library used by js-data-http. Configuration options for $http, if you're using the http adapter in js-data-angular.

Default: {}

suffix

Type: string

A suffix to be added to the url path before making a request.

Default: ""

basePath

Type: string

A prefix to be added to the url path before making a request.

Default: ""

forceTrailingSlash

Type: boolean

Force use of a trailing slash.

Default: false

log

Type: function || false

The logging function to use for successful requests. Set to false to disable.

Default: console.log

error

Type: function || false

The logging function to use for failed requests. Set to false to disable.

Default: console.error

create(resourceConfig, attrs[, options)

Make a POST request to create a single item on the server. Calls DSHttpAdapter#POST, which calls DSHttpAdapter#HTTP which delegates either to axios or $http, so all of the options for those methods are supported here.

Returns a promise, which will resolve with the result of calling deserialize on whatever DSHttpAdapter#HTTP resolves with.

ArgumentTypeDescription
resouceConfigobjectA resource definition created by DS#defineResource.
attrsobjectThe attributes from which to create the item. This will be the body of the request.
options (optional)objectConfiguration options. Also passed through to DSHttpAdapter#POST and subsequently to DSHttpAdapter#HTTP, and finally to axios or $http, depending on which underlying http library is being used. Options supported by axios (or $http) are also supported here.
options.suffixstringOverride the default suffix.
options.serializefunctionOverride the default serialize hook.
options.deserializefunctionOverride the default deserialize hook.
Examples
var adapter = new DSHttpAdapter();
var store = new JSData.DS();
store.registerAdapter('http', adapter, { default: true });

var Document = store.defineResource('document');

// bypass the data store
adapter.create(Document, { author: 'John' }).then(function (document) {
  document; // { id: 5, author: 'John' }
  
  // The new document has NOT been injected into the data store because we bypassed the data store
  Document.get(document.id); // undefined
});

// Normally you would just go through the data store
Document.create({ author: 'John' }).then(function (document) {
  document; // { id: 5, author: 'John' }
  
  // the new document has been injected into the data store
  Document.get(document.id); // { id: 5, author: 'John' }
});

  data.config; {...}
});

destroy(resourceConfig, id[, options])

Make a DELETE request to destroy a single item on the server. Calls DSHttpAdapter#DEL, which calls DSHttpAdapter#HTTP which delegates either to axios or $http, so all of the options for those methods are supported here.

ArgumentTypeDescription
resourceConfigobjectA resource definition created by DS#defineResource.
idstring or numberThe primary key of the item to destroy.

// bypass the data store
adapter.destroy(Document, 5).then(function () {
  // the document is still in the data store because we bypassed the data store
  Document.get(document.id); // { id: 5, author: 'John' }
