    <p>I'm writing an app using coffeescript with coffee toaster (an awesome NPM module for stitching) that builds my app.js file. </p> <p>Lots of my application classes and templates require info about the current user so I have an instance of class User (extends Backbone.Model) stored as a property of my main Application class (extends Backbone.Router). </p> <p>As part of the initialization routine I grab the user from the server (which takes care of authentication, roles, account switching etc.). Here's that coffeescript:</p> <pre><code>@user = new models.User @user.fetch() console.log(@user) console.log(@user.get('email')) </code></pre> <p>The first logging statement outputs the correct Backbone.Model attributes object in the console just as it should: </p> <pre><code>User _changing: false _escapedAttributes: Object _pending: Object _previousAttributes: Object _silent: Object attributes: Object account: Object created_on: "1983-12-13 00:00:00" email: "ben@accomplicecreative.com" icon: "0" id: "1" last_login: "2012-06-07 02:31:38" name: "Ben Ipsen" roles: Object __proto__: Object changed: Object cid: "c0" id: "1" __proto__: ctor app.js:228 </code></pre> <p>However, the second returns <em>undefined</em> despite the model attributes clearly being there in the console when logged. </p> <p>And just to make things even more interesting, typing "window.app.user.get('email')" into the console manually returns the expected value of "ben@accomplicecreative.com"... ?</p> <p>Just for reference, here's how the initialize method compiles into my app.js file:</p> <pre><code>Application.prototype.initialize = function() { var isMobile; isMobile = navigator.userAgent.match(/(iPhone|iPod|iPad|Android|BlackBerry)/); this.helpers = new views.DOMHelpers().initialize().setup_viewport(isMobile); this.user = new models.User(); this.user.fetch(); console.log(this.user); console.log(this.user.get('email')); return this; }; </code></pre> <p>I initialize the Application controller in my static HTML like so: </p> <pre><code>jQuery(document).ready(function(){ window.app = new controllers.Application(); }); </code></pre> <p>Suggestions please and thank you!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
