ember-json-serializer-meta v1.2.0

ember-json-serializer-meta

So I heard you are working with custom APIs that are not either JSONAPI or REST but rather something in between, a hybrid. Then this addon is for you! It enables extracting metadata for all the Ember Data normalize*Response hooks.

ember install ember-json-serializer-meta

Works with Ember 1.13+

API response

  {
    status: {
      errorCode: 0
    },
    records: [{
      id: 1,
      name: 'Tomster'
    }],
    pagination: {

    }
  }

By default such payload is not supported by the JSONSerializer, it is impossible to extract metadata with default extractMeta hook.

Here comes in the addon which adds another serializer hook for extracting meta for your custom API responses with JSONSerializer.

import extractMetaResponseMixin from 'ember-json-serializer-meta';

export default DS.JSONSerializer.extend(extractMetaResponseMixin, {
  extractMetaResponse(store, typeClass, payload/*, id, requestType*/) {
    if (payload && payload.pagination) {
      return payload.pagination;
    }
  }
});

Default implementation of extractMetaResponse will lookup meta property.

  {
    ...
    meta: {
      my: 'meta'
    }
    ...
  }
