Class BuildURLMixin

public

Using BuildURLMixin

To use URL building, include the mixin when extending an adapter, and call buildURL where needed. The default behaviour is designed for RESTAdapter.

Example

import Adapter, { BuildURLMixin } from '@ember-data/adapter';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends Adapter.extend(BuildURLMixin) {
  findRecord(store, type, id, snapshot) {
    var url = this.buildURL(type.modelName, id, snapshot, 'findRecord');
    return this.ajax(url, 'GET');
  }
}

Attributes

The host and namespace attributes will be used if defined, and are optional.

Show:

modelName
String
id
(String|Array|Object)

single id or array of ids or query

snapshot
(Snapshot|SnapshotRecordArray)

single snapshot or array of snapshots

requestType
String
query
Object

object of query parameters to send for query requests.

returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a given type and optional ID.

By default, it pluralizes the type's name (for example, 'post' becomes 'posts' and 'person' becomes 'people'). To override the pluralization see pathForType.

If an ID is specified, it adds the ID to the path generated for the type, separated by a /.

When called by RESTAdapter.findMany() the id and snapshot parameters will be arrays of ids and snapshots.

modelName
String
returns
String

path

Determines the pathname for a given type.

By default, it pluralizes the type's name (for example, 'post' becomes 'posts' and 'person' becomes 'people').

Pathname customization

For example, if you have an object LineItem with an endpoint of /line_items/.

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';
import { decamelize } from '@ember/string';
import { pluralize } from 'ember-inflector';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  pathForType(modelName) {
    var decamelized = decamelize(modelName);
    return pluralize(decamelized);
  }
}
modelName
String
snapshot
Snapshot
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a record.save() call when the record was created locally using store.createRecord().

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  urlForCreateRecord(modelName, snapshot) {
    return super.urlForCreateRecord(...arguments) + '/new';
  }
}
id
String
modelName
String
snapshot
Snapshot
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a record.save() call when the record has been deleted locally.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  urlForDeleteRecord(id, modelName, snapshot) {
    return super.urlForDeleteRecord(...arguments) + '/destroy';
  }
}
modelName
String
snapshot
SnapshotRecordArray
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a store.findAll(type) call.

Example:

app/adapters/comment.js

    let baseUrl = this.buildURL(modelName);
    return `${baseUrl}/data/comments.json`;
  }
}
id
String
modelName
String
snapshot

returns
String

url

Builds a URL for fetching an async belongsTo relationship when a url is not provided by the server.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import JSONAPIAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/json-api';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends JSONAPIAdapter {
  urlForFindBelongsTo(id, modelName, snapshot) {
    let baseUrl = this.buildURL(modelName, id);
    return `${baseUrl}/relationships`;
  }
}
id
String
modelName
String
snapshot
Snapshot
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for fetching an async hasMany relationship when a URL is not provided by the server.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import JSONAPIAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/json-api';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends JSONAPIAdapter {
  urlForFindHasMany(id, modelName, snapshot) {
    let baseUrl = this.buildURL(modelName, id);
    return `${baseUrl}/relationships`;
  }
}
ids
Array
modelName
String
snapshots
Array
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for coalescing multiple store.findRecord(type, id) records into 1 request when the adapter's coalesceFindRequests property is true.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  urlForFindMany(ids, modelName) {
    let baseUrl = this.buildURL();
    return `${baseUrl}/coalesce`;
  }
}
id
String
modelName
String
snapshot
Snapshot
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a store.findRecord(type, id) call.

Example:

app/adapters/user.js
import JSONAPIAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/json-api';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends JSONAPIAdapter {
  urlForFindRecord(id, modelName, snapshot) {
    let baseUrl = this.buildURL(modelName, id, snapshot);
    return `${baseUrl}/users/${snapshot.adapterOptions.user_id}/playlists/${id}`;
  }
}
query
Object
modelName
String
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a store.query(type, query) call.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  host = 'https://api.github.com';
  urlForQuery (query, modelName) {
    switch(modelName) {
      case 'repo':
        return `https://api.github.com/orgs/${query.orgId}/repos`;
      default:
        return super.urlForQuery(...arguments);
    }
  }
}
query
Object
modelName
String
returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a store.queryRecord(type, query) call.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  urlForQueryRecord({ slug }, modelName) {
    let baseUrl = this.buildURL();
    return `${baseUrl}/${encodeURIComponent(slug)}`;
  }
}
id
String
modelName
String
snapshot

returns
String

url

Builds a URL for a record.save() call when the record has been updated locally.

Example:

app/adapters/application.js
import RESTAdapter from '@ember-data/adapter/rest';

export default class ApplicationAdapter extends RESTAdapter {
  urlForUpdateRecord(id, modelName, snapshot) {
    return `/${id}/feed?access_token=${snapshot.adapterOptions.token}`;
  }
