I am trying to link ember-models to the ember-table to pull paginated records from the server and add them to the table when scrolling down.
I can get it working by just requesting my api url with page number like in the ajax example on http://addepar.github.io/ember-table/ but i cant figure out how to integrate it with ember-model to create and ember objects and then add them to the table.
Here is my code to just make an ajax request and add to table. Can anyone tell me how i can change this to use ember-model / ember-data instead.
App.TableAjaxExample = Ember.Namespace.create()
App.TableAjaxExample.LazyDataSource = Ember.ArrayProxy.extend
createGithubEvent: (row, event) ->
row.set 'id', event.id
row.set 'name', event.name
row.set 'isLoaded', yes
requestGithubEvent: (page) ->
content = @get 'content'
start = (page - 1) * 30
end = start + 30
per_page = 40
# something like this ???
#App.Detail.find(type: 'companies', page: page, per_page: per_page).on 'didLoad', ->
url = "http:/myurl.dev/admin/details.json?type=companies&page=#{page}&per_page=30"
Ember.$.getJSON url, (json) =>
json.details.forEach (event, index) =>
row = content[start + index]
@createGithubEvent row, event
[start...end].forEach (index) ->
content[index] = Ember.Object.create eventId: index, isLoaded: no
objectAt: (index) ->
content = @get 'content'
#if index is content.get('length') - 1
# content.pushObjects(new Array(30))
row = content[index]
return row if row and not row.get('error')
@requestGithubEvent Math.floor(index / 30 + 1)
content[index]
App.TableAjaxExample.TableController =
Ember.Table.TableController.extend
hasHeader: yes
hasFooter: no
numFixedColumns: 0
numRows: 21054
rowHeight: 35
columns: Ember.computed ->
columnNames = ['id', 'name']
columns = columnNames.map (key, index) ->
Ember.Table.ColumnDefinition.create
columnWidth: 150
headerCellName: key.w()
contentPath: key
columns
.property()
content: Ember.computed ->
App.TableAjaxExample.LazyDataSource.create
content: new Array(@get('numRows'))
.property 'numRows'
Is the possible or does this slow it down to much?
Thanks for the help. Rick
Here's a JSBin that I got working with Ember Data and the RESTAdapter: http://jsbin.com/eVOgUrE/3/edit
It works very similarly to the AJAX loading example, but uses Ember Data to load the data. I created a RowProxy object that is returned immediately to the Ember Table so that it can render a row. After Ember Data loads a page full of data it sets the object property on the RowProxy which updates the view.
window.App = Ember.Application.create();
// The main model that will be loaded into Ember Table
App.Gallery = DS.Model.extend({
name: DS.attr('string'),
smallUrl: DS.attr('string')
});
// This is a temporary buffer object that sits between
// Ember Table and the model object (Gallery, in this case).
App.RowProxy = Ember.Object.extend({
object:null,
getObjectProperty : function(prop){
var obj = this.get('object');
if(obj){ console.log(prop + " : " + obj.get(prop)); }
return obj ? obj.get(prop) : 'loading...';
},
isLoaded : function(){ return !!this.get('object'); }.property('object'),
name : function(){ return this.getObjectProperty('name'); }.property('object.name'),
id : function(){ return this.getObjectProperty('id'); }.property('object.id'),
smallUrl : function(){ return this.getObjectProperty('smallUrl'); }.property('object.smallUrl')
});
App.ApplicationController = Ember.Controller.extend({
tableController: Ember.computed(function() {
return Ember.get('App.TableAjaxExample.TableController').create({
// We need to pass in the store so that the table can use it
store : this.get('store')
});
})
});
App.TableAjaxExample = Ember.Namespace.create();
App.TableAjaxExample.ImageTableCell = Ember.Table.TableCell.extend({
templateName: 'img-table-cell',
classNames: 'img-table-cell'
});
App.TableAjaxExample.LazyDataSource = Ember.ArrayProxy.extend({
requestPage : function(page){
var content, end, start, url, _i, _results,
_this = this;
content = this.get('content');
start = (page - 1) * 3;
end = start + 3;
// Find galleries and then update the RowProxy to hold a gallery as 'object'
this.get('store').find('gallery',{page_size:3,page:page}).then(function(galleries){
return galleries.forEach(function(gallery, index) {
var position = start + index;
content[position].set('object',gallery);
});
});
// Fill the 'content' array with RowProxy objects
// Taken from the 'requestGithubEvent' method of the original example
return (function() {
_results = [];
for (var _i = start; start <= end ? _i < end : _i > end; start <= end ? _i++ : _i--){ _results.push(_i); }
return _results;
}).apply(this).forEach(function(index) {
return content[index] = App.RowProxy.create({
index: index
});
});
},
objectAt: function(index) {
var content, row;
content = this.get('content');
row = content[index];
if (row && !row.get('error')) {
return row;
}
this.requestPage(Math.floor(index / 3 + 1));
return content[index];
}
});

var avatar, columnNames, columns;
