POEmber Data 1.0.0: what is expected format for belongsTo relationship
text
Body
copied!<p>I have the following models:</p> <pre><code>App.Publication = DS.Model.extend({ title: DS.attr('string'), bodytext: DS.attr('string'), author: DS.belongsTo('author') }); App.Author = DS.Model.extend({ name: DS.attr('string') }); </code></pre> <p>And the folowing json data:</p> <pre><code>{ "publications": [ { id: '1', title: 'first title', bodytext: 'first body', author_id: 100 }, { id: '2', title: 'second title', bodytext: 'second post', author_id: 200 } ]; } </code></pre> <p>In Ember Data RC12 this worked (you could specify author_id OR author in the json and the publication would always have the correct author linked). </p> <p>In Ember Data 1.0.0 this no longer works; author is always null. </p> <p>In some documents I found that - since I am using "author_id" in the json data (and not simply author) - I need to specify the key in the model; thus:</p> <pre><code> author: DS.belongsTo('author', { key: 'author_id' }) </code></pre> <p>This however does not work; the author in the publication remains null.</p> <p>The only solution I see for now is to implement a custom serializer and override the author_id to author (via normailzeId); I cannot change my backend data structure ... thus:</p> <pre><code>App.MySerializer = DS.RESTSerializer.extend({ //Custom serializer used for all models normalizeId: function (hash) { hash.author = hash.author_id; delete hash.author_id; return hash; } }); </code></pre> <p>Is the above the correct way ? </p>
