Overview

JsonAPI Adapter based on js-data-http for js-data

This adapter just add a light serialize and deserialize layer over DSHttpAdapter.

Compatibility

package requirement
js-data >= 3.0.0
js-data-http >= 3.0.0

By design it is not compatible with JS-Data v2, for a full integration on v2, you should use: js-data-jsonapi.

Quick Start

First you need to install everything needed :

npm install --save js-data js-data-http js-data-jsonapi js-data-jsonapi-light

Load js-data-jsonapi-light.js last.

import { DataStore } from 'js-data'
// or `var DataStore = JSDate.DataStore`

import { JsonApiAdapter } from 'js-data-jsonapi-light'
// or `var JsonApiAdapter = JSDataJsonApiLight.JsonApiAdapter`

// Initialize our Store
const store = new DataStore();

// Initialize our Adapter
const jsonApiAdapter = new JsonApiAdapter({
  // Same options as DSHttpAdapter
  // However, you should use before/after deserialize/serialize instead of serialize/deserialize
});

// Register the Adapter as the default one in the store
store.registerAdapter('jsonApi', jsonApiAdapter, { default: true })

Exemples

Use case

  • You can find examples of Mapper Definitions in test/resources.
  • Fake JsonAPI responses corresponding to those mapper can be found in test/api
  • Bootstrap of JSData + JsonAPI could be found in test/ds
  • Exemple of use could be found in test/unit

Define your mappers

JSData works with mappers which define the communication part and the way your resources are linked together

const UserMapper = window.store.defineMapper('User',{
  endpoint: 'users', // optional, it will default to `User`
  relations: {
    hasOne: {
      'UserProfile': {
        localField: 'profile',
        foreignKey: 'userId'
      }
    },
    hasMany: {
      'Article': {
        localField: 'articles',
        foreignKey: 'authorId'
      }
    },
    belongsTo: {
      'UserGroup': {
        localField: 'group',
        localKey: 'groupId'
      }
    }
  }
})

Fetch your data

UserMapper.findAll({ include: 'profile' }).then((records) => {
  console.log(records);
})

Once some records has been loaded they are also cached in the DataStore, you can access them synchronously with :

records = store.getAll('User')

Hooks

Sometime you want to be able to do some custom additional serialization / deserialization.

By using the adapter

  const jsonApiAdapter = new JsonApiAdapter({
    beforeDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    beforeSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
  });

By using the mapper

  const UserMapper = store.defineMapper('User', {
    beforeDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    beforeSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
  });

When doing requests

  store.findAll('User', {}, {
    beforeDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterDeserialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
  });

  store.update('User', {}, {
    beforeSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
    afterSerialize: function(mapper, data, opts) { return data; }
  });

Options

Adapter options

beforeDeserialize, afterDeserialize, beforeSerialize, afterSerialize

Deserialization and serialization hooks, see above.

CRUD methods options

raw: boolean

Send back raw response

Eg. To retrieve JSONApi Meta :

store.findAll('User', {}, {
  raw: true
}).then((response) => {
  console.log(response.data); // Return the Records
  console.log(response.meta); // Return the JSONApi Metas
  console.log(response.rawData); // Return the full response (should be discarded as soon as possible to save memory)
})
  • Compatible with: all

forceReplace: boolean(false)

On update, force all fields to be sent even if they haven't been changed. It will switch from default PATCH http verb to PUT.

If some properties are passed to the update, only those will be sent. Those who has not changed compared to the record original properties will not be sent. Be careful, because it means, once the update made, the server will return saved datas, and it will erased possible properties that were changed on the record but not given to the update. Nothing wrong with that, it's the correct behavior, but you should know about this logic.

  • Compatible with: update, save

forceRelationshipsInAttributes: boolean(false)

On update, force all relationships data to be sent using attributes structure instead of default relationships within the resource object. Note it is not JsonAPI compliant, it is a convenient option to support some specific backends.

  • See #23
  • Compatible with: update, save

beforeDeserialize, afterDeserialize, beforeSerialize, afterSerialize

Deserialization and serialization hooks, see above.

Development Status

What is done

  • Deserialization, supporting hasMany, hasOne, belongsTo relationships
  • Meta handling
  • Serialization
  • Custom hooks
  • By default update PATCH changes instead of PUT the record

What may work

  • Error handling (need intensive testing)

What is remaining

  • ManyToMany
