DS#create
DS#create(resourceName, attrs[, options])
The "C" in "CRUD", create is for creating a single item via an adapter. With completely default settings, it's probably going to end up making a POST request to /resource, where resource is the name of the resource, e.g. store.create('user', { name: 'John' }). If you're working with the resource directly you can just do User.create({ name: 'John' }).
create asynchronous and returns a promise.
Delegates to the create method of whichever adapter is being used and then injects the created item into the data store.
cacheResponse: false will cause the result to not be injected into the store.
As create delegates to an adapter, the options argument (if you passed one) will also be passed to the adapter's create method, so you can pass options to the adapter as well.
If the result is to be injected into the store, the options argument will also be passed to DS#inject when it is called.
You can call
DS#createmultiple ways
DS#create(resourceName, attrs[, options])Resource#create(attrs[, options])- Where Resource was created byDS#defineResourceInstance#DSCreate([options])- Where Instance is an unsaved instance of a Resource.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
resourceName | string | The name of the resource to use. Unnecessary if calling create directly on a Resource. |
attrs | object | The properties with which to create the item. |
options (optional) | object | Settings are inherited from Resource and Global defaults. Will be passed through to the adapter's create method and DS#inject, if it is called. |
options.adapter | string | The name of a registered adapter to use. |
options.cacheResponse | boolean | Inject the updated item into the store. |
options.upsert | boolean | If attrs already contains a primary key, then attempt to call DS#update instead. |
Because options is passed through to an adapter's create method or DS#inject, then the options for those methods are valid options here as well. |
