I am working with the GitHub API in order to load models in a specific route
I am doing two promises one for my personal github details : https://api.github.com/users/user and the other one for my GitHub repositories https://api.github.com/users/user/repos
I can load the models separately but the problem is that i don't figure on how to load both models at the same time in my specific route.
See the code
var IndexRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
model: function(params) {
var url, self, git;
self = this;
git = this.store.createRecord('git',{});
url = 'https://api.github.com/users/user';
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
return Ember.$.getJSON(url, function(data) {
var item = [];
git.setProperties({
name: data.name,
login: data.login,
location: data.location,
company: data.company,
followers: data.followers,
following: data.following
});
item.pushObject(git);
return resolve(item);
});
});
},
model: function(params){
var self, url, repoListProxy;
self = this;
url = 'https://api.github.com/users/user/repos';
repoListProxy = Ember.ArrayProxy.create({
content: []
});
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
return Ember.$.getJSON(url, function(repos) {
if (repos.length) {
repos.toArray().forEach(function(item, index, arr){
var repo;
repo = self.createReposList(item, repoListProxy);
});
repos = repoListProxy.get('content');
return resolve(repos);
}
});
});
},
createReposList: function(repo, arr){
var record
record = this.store.createRecord('repo',{}),
record.setProperties({
name: repo.name,
description: repo.description
})
arr.pushObject(record);
return record;
},
});
How can i load these multiple models with Ember.RSVP.Promise in my specific route?
Since the code you posted is too long to read i didn't implement solution based on it. Here's a common example of loading mutliple promises within a single route in the model hook.
model: function() {
var store = self.get('store');
var someRecord = store.createRecord('foo/bar', {});
var somePromise = imported_promise(someRecord);
return Ember.RSVP.hash({
accessRights: somePromise,
itemData: somePromise.then(function(resolved) {
// Do something here, promise is resolved.
})
myRecord: someRecord,
});
},
Now if you need to access anything from route in the template or controller.
you would first reference to model and then the property.
{{model.myRecord}} or this.get('model.myRecord')
Since you're a nice guy for downvoting me i decided i'd write it for you.
I reccomend using Ic-AJAX : https://github.com/rwjblue/ember-cli-ic-ajax for async calls when you cant use store.find
model: function() {
var store = this.get('store');
var userUrl = 'https://api.github.com/users/user';
var reposUrl = 'https://api.github.com/users/user/repos';
var usersPromise = function() {
return ic.ajax.request(userUrl).then(function(data) {
return store.createRecord('git', {
name: data.name,
login: data.login,
location: data.location,
company: data.company,
followers: data.followers,
following: data.following
})
};
};
var repositoriesPromise = function() {
return ic.ajax.request(reposUrl).then(function(repos) {
return repos.map(function(repo) { // map returns new array no need to write container = [] . container.push(bla)
return store.createRecord('repos', {
name: repo.name,
description: repo.description
});
})
};
}
return Ember.RSVP.hash({
users: usersPromise,
repositories: repositoriesPromise
});
},
Since you're still using a different approach i went ahead and googled its syntax
var gituserPromise = function() {
return Ember.$.ajax(userUrl, {
success: function(data) {
return store.createRecord('git', {
name: data.name,
login: data.login,
location: data.location,
company: data.company,
followers: data.followers,
following: data.following
})
},
error: function(reason) {
reject(reason);
}});
};
return Ember.RSVP.hash({
gitUser: gituserPromise()
});
In hbs i can now do {{model.gitUser.name}}
