Class Snapshot

Returns the value of an attribute.

Example

// store.push('post', { id: 1, author: 'Tomster', title: 'Ember.js rocks' });
postSnapshot.attr('author'); // => 'Tomster'
postSnapshot.attr('title'); // => 'Ember.js rocks'

Note: Values are loaded eagerly and cached when the snapshot is created.

Returns all attributes and their corresponding values.

Example

// store.push('post', { id: 1, author: 'Tomster', title: 'Ember.js rocks' });
postSnapshot.attributes(); // => { author: 'Tomster', title: 'Ember.js rocks' }

Returns the current value of a belongsTo relationship.

belongsTo takes an optional hash of options as a second parameter, currently supported options are:

• id: set to true if you only want the ID of the related record to be returned.

Example

// store.push('post', { id: 1, title: 'Hello World' });
// store.createRecord('comment', { body: 'Lorem ipsum', post: post });
commentSnapshot.belongsTo('post'); // => Snapshot
commentSnapshot.belongsTo('post', { id: true }); // => '1'

// store.push('comment', { id: 1, body: 'Lorem ipsum' });
commentSnapshot.belongsTo('post'); // => undefined

Calling belongsTo will return a new Snapshot as long as there's any known data for the relationship available, such as an ID. If the relationship is known but unset, belongsTo will return null. If the contents of the relationship is unknown belongsTo will return undefined.

Note: Relationships are loaded lazily and cached upon first access.

Returns all changed attributes and their old and new values.

Example

// store.push('post', { id: 1, author: 'Tomster', title: 'Ember.js rocks' });
postModel.set('title', 'Ember.js rocks!');
postSnapshot.changedAttributes(); // => { title: ['Ember.js rocks', 'Ember.js rocks!'] }

Iterates through all the attributes of the model, calling the passed function on each attribute.

Example

snapshot.eachAttribute(function(name, meta) {
  // ...
});

Iterates through all the relationships of the model, calling the passed function on each relationship.

Example

snapshot.eachRelationship(function(name, relationship) {
  // ...
});

Returns the current value of a hasMany relationship.

hasMany takes an optional hash of options as a second parameter, currently supported options are:

• ids: set to true if you only want the IDs of the related records to be returned.

Example

// store.push('post', { id: 1, title: 'Hello World', comments: [2, 3] });
postSnapshot.hasMany('comments'); // => [Snapshot, Snapshot]
postSnapshot.hasMany('comments', { ids: true }); // => ['2', '3']

// store.push('post', { id: 1, title: 'Hello World' });
postSnapshot.hasMany('comments'); // => undefined

Note: Relationships are loaded lazily and cached upon first access.

Serializes the snapshot using the serializer for the model.

Example

import Adapter from '@ember-data/adapter';

export default Adapter.extend({
  createRecord(store, type, snapshot) {
    let data = snapshot.serialize({ includeId: true });
    let url = `/${type.modelName}`;

    return fetch(url, {
      method: 'POST',
      body: data,
    }).then((response) => response.json())
  }
});
