photusenigma / js-data Goto Github PK

Inspired by Ember Data, js-data is the model layer you've been craving. It consists of a convenient framework-agnostic, in-memory cache for managing your data, which uses adapters to communicate with various persistence layers.

You can use the http adapter, which is perfect for communicating with your RESTful backend. You could also use the localStorage adapter. On the server you could hook up to the SQL adapter (Postgres/MySQL/MariaDB/SQLite3) and add in the Redis adapter as a caching layer for your read endpoints. More adapters are coming, and you're free to implement your own. View available adapters.

Unlike Backbone and Ember Models, JSData does not require the use of getters and setters, and doesn't wrap your data with custom classes if you don't want it to. JSData's internal change detection (via observe-js or Object.observe in supporting browsers) allows for powerful use cases and an easy avenue for implementing your own 3-way data-binding.

Supporting relations, computed properties, model lifecycle control and a slew of other features, JSData is the tool for giving your data the respect it deserves.

It's also written in ES6. Contributions ftw!

Support is handled via the Mailing List.

Status:

Supported Platforms:

bower install --save js-data js-data-http or npm install --save js-data js-data-http.

Load js-data-http.js after js-data.js. See installation instructions for making js-data part of your r.js/browserify/webpack build.

// you can also require "js-data" if you're using AMD/CommonJS
// e.g. var JSData = require('js-data'); var DSHttpAdapter = require('js-data-http');
var store = new JSData.DS();

// register and use http by default for async operations
store.registerAdapter('http', new DSHttpAdapter(), { default: true });

// simplest model definition
var User = store.defineResource('user');
var Comment = store.defineResource('comment');

var user;

// Example CRUD operations with default configuration
// See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsfind
User.find(1)
  .then(function (_user) {
    _user; // { id: 1, name: 'John' }

    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsis
    User.is(_user); // true
    Comment.is(_user); // false

    // The user is in the store now
    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsget
    User.get(_user.id); // { id: 1, name: 'John' }

    user = _user;

    // No need for another GET request, will resolve immediately
    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsfind
    return User.find(1);
  })
  .then(function (_user) {
    user === _user; // true

    // PUT /user/1 {name:"Johnny"}
    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsupdate
    return User.update(user.id, { name: 'Johnny' });
  })
  .then(function (_user) {
    // identity mapping at play
    user === _user; // true
    user === User.get(_user.id); // true

    user; // { id: 1, name: 'Johnny' }

    user.name = 'Billy';

    // PUT /user/1 {id:1,name:"Billy"}
    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dssave
    return User.save(1);
  })
  .then(function (_user) {
    // identity mapping at play
    user === _user; // true
    user === User.get(_user.id); // true

    user; // { id: 1, name: 'Johnny' }

    // DELETE /user/1
    // See http://www.js-data.io/docs/dsdestroy
    return User.destroy(1);
  })
  .then(function () {
    // The user has also been removed from the in-memory store
    User.get(1); // undefined
  });
