The examples here don't go nearly far enough in explaining how to produce a more complicated structure...
If I want to end up with something like:
{
"data": {
"type": "mobile_screens",
"id": "1",
"attributes": {
"title": "Watch"
},
"relationships": {
"mobile_screen_components": {
"data": [
{
"id": "1_1",
"type": "mobile_screen_components"
},
{
"id": "1_2",
"type": "mobile_screen_components"
},
...
]
}
}
},
"included": [
{
"id": "1_1",
"type": "mobile_screen_components",
"attributes": {
"title": "Featured Playlist",
"display_type": "shelf"
},
"relationships": {
"playlist": {
"data": {
"id": "938973798001",
"type": "playlists"
}
}
}
},
{
"id": "938973798001",
"type": "playlists",
"relationships": {
"videos": {
"data": [
{
"id": "5536725488001",
"type": "videos"
},
{
"id": "5535943875001",
"type": "videos"
}
]
}
}
},
{
"id": "5536725488001",
"type": "videos",
"attributes": {
"duration": 78321,
"live_stream": false,
"thumbnail": {
"width": 1280,
"url":
"http://xxx.jpg?pubId=694940094001",
"height": 720
},
"last_published_date": "2017-08-09T18:26:04.899Z",
"streams": [
{
"url":
"http://xxx.m3u8",
"mime_type": "MP4"
}
],
"last_modified_date": "2017-08-09T18:26:27.621Z",
"description": "xxx",
"fn__media_tags": [
"weather",
"personality"
],
"created_date": "2017-08-09T18:23:16.830Z",
"title": "NOAA predicts most active hurricane season since 2010",
"fn__tve_authentication_required": false
}
},
...,
]
}
what is the most simple data structure and serializer I can set up?
I get stumped after something like:
const mobile_screen_components = responses.map((currentValue, index) => {
id[`id_${index}`];
});
const dataSet = {
id: 1,
title: 'Watch',
mobile_screen_components,
};
const ScreenSerializer = new JSONAPISerializer('mobile_screens', {
attributes: ['title', 'mobile_screen_components'],
mobile_screen_components: {
ref: 'id',
}
});
Which only gives me:
{
"data": {
"type": "mobile_screens",
"id": "1",
"attributes": { "title": "Watch" },
"relationships": {
"mobile-screen-components": {
"data": [
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_0" },
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_1" },
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_2" },
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_3" },
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_4" },
{ "type": "mobile_screen_components", "id": "1_5" }
]
}
}
}
}
I have no idea how to get the "included" sibling to "data." etc.
So, the question is:
what is the most simple data structure and serializer I can set up?
Below is the simplest object that can be converted to JSON similar to JSON in the question using jsonapi-serializer
:
let dataSet = {
id: '1',
title: 'Watch',
mobile_screen_components: [
{
id: '1_1',
title: 'Featured Playlists',
display_type: 'shelf',
playlists: {
id: 938973798001,
videos: [
{
id: 5536725488001,
duration: 78321,
live_stream: false
},
{
id: 5535943875001,
duration: 52621,
live_stream: true
}
]
}
}
]
};
To serialize this object to JSON API, I used the following code:
let json = new JSONAPISerializer('mobile_screen', {
attributes: ['id', 'title', 'mobile_screen_components'],
mobile_screen_components: {
ref: 'id',
attributes: ['id', 'title', 'display_type', 'playlists'],
playlists: {
ref: 'id',
attributes: ['id', 'videos'],
videos: {
ref: 'id',
attributes: ['id', 'duration', 'live_stream']
}
}
}
}).serialize(dataSet);
console.log(JSON.stringify(json, null, 2));
JSONAPISerializer
constructor is the resource type.ref
- if present, it's considered as a relationships.attributes
- an array of attributes to show.
