    <p>I've spent the past two weeks trying to learn Backbone.js and then also modularizing the app with Require.js. But seems there are something that I'm not getting in the whole process of initialization and fetching.</p> <p>I have two routes, one shows an entire collection while the other shows just an individual model. And I want to be able to start the app with any of both routes.</p> <p>If I start loading the collections url and later on a single model url, everything works as expected. If I start the app with the url route to a single model I got the error: <code>TypeError: this.model is undefined this.$el.html(tmpl(this.model.toJSON()));</code>on the view.</p> <p>If I set defaults for the model, it renders the view but doesn't fetch it with the real data. I've tried also to handle the success event in the fetch function of the model without any luck.</p> <p><strong>router.js</strong></p> <pre><code>define(['jquery','underscore','backbone','models/offer','collections/offers','views/header','views/event','views/offer/list', ], function($, _, Backbone, OfferModel, OffersCollection, HeaderView, EventView, OfferListView){ var AppRouter = Backbone.Router.extend({ routes: { 'event/:id' : 'showEvent', '*path': 'showOffers' }, initialize : function() { this.offersCollection = new OffersCollection(); this.offersCollection.fetch(); var headerView = new HeaderView(); $('#header').html(headerView.render().el); }, showEvent : function(id) { if (this.offersCollection) { this.offerModel = this.offersCollection.get(id); } else { this.offerModel = new OfferModel({id: id}); this.offerModel.fetch(); } var eventView = new EventView({model: this.offerModel}); $('#main').html(eventView.render().el); }, showOffers : function(path) { if (path === 'betting' || path === 'score') { var offerListView = new OfferListView({collection: this.offersCollection, mainTemplate: path}); $('#main').html(offerListView.render().el) ; } }, }); var initialize = function(){ window.router = new AppRouter; Backbone.history.start(); }; return { initialize: initialize }; }); </code></pre> <p><strong>views/event.js</strong></p> <pre><code>define(['jquery','underscore','backbone','text!templates/event/main.html', ], function($, _, Backbone, eventMainTemplate){ var EventView = Backbone.View.extend({ initalize : function(options) { this.model = options.model; this.model.on("change", this.render); }, render : function() { var tmpl = _.template(eventMainTemplate); this.$el.html(tmpl(this.model.toJSON())); return this; } }); return EventView; }); </code></pre>

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.
