BaseModel

(source)

Base class for model instances created based on data fetched from server.

_attributes

Declares the model attributes which will be validated

Examples

return {
  name: type('string', { required: true, acceptedTypes: [propTypes.null, propTypes.emptyString] })
}

Returns Object containing attributes of model and the type

_cache

Sets _data based on json during instantiation

Parameters:

• data Object

Returns undefined

_deserialize

Deserializes json data fetched with camelcase keys

Parameters:

• modelJson Object

Returns Object _data

_serialize

Serializes _data with snakecase keys

Returns Object

_validateAttributes

Validates the attributes against that described in _attributes

Parameters:

• modelJson Object

Returns Boolean

isDirty

Returns Boolean indicator if the model is dirty

changedAttributes

Returns Object difference object between _data from server and model properties

save

Saves the changes made to the model instance to server

Returns Object promise by domain store following the api call

softDelete

Marks isDeleted status as true so that the change is propogated when save is called

Returns undefined

delete

Deletes the model via domain store

Returns Object promise by domain store

discardChanges

Discards changes made to model based on _data

Returns undefined

DomainStore

(source)

Endpoints are dependant on the model name that extends from this.

Default endpoints:
  GET       /modelName            List of entries
  GET       /modelName/:id        Show entry details
