DS#createCollection

DS#createCollection(resourceName[, array][, params][, options])

Suggest Edits

Create a new collection of the specified Resource. Collection are somewhat like Backbone.Collection. They have a .fetch([options]) method which will call DS#findAll with the params you provided, and splice the result into the collection.

You can create Collections that use cacheResponse: false, so their contents are never injected into the store, otherwise Collections end up being a subset of the data in the store.

You can call DS#createCollection multiple ways

  • DS#createCollection(resourceName[, array][, params][, options])
  • Resource#createCollection([array][, params][, options]) - Where Resource was created by DS#defineResource
