Get URL for method

[kentcdodds]

I have a use case where I need to get the findAll URL for a resource. Is there an easy way to do this?

[jmdobry]

The API does not provide an easy way to do this.

[kentcdodds]

Would it be a great deal of effort to do this?

[kentcdodds]

Could we not expose DSUtils and do what is done on this line

[kentcdodds]

Or, rather than expose DSUtils, expose a function that does what that line does:

DSUtils.makePath(options.baseUrl || resourceConfig.baseUrl, resourceConfig.getEndpoint(null, options)),

I'll think about it.

[kentcdodds]

I would love an api like this:

var foo = DS.defineResource('foo');
var fooUrl = foo.findAll.getUrl(params, options);

So we'd just add a getUrl function to the findAll function. And the findAll function could just use the getUrl function.

This is incidentally what I'm doing for the instance and class methods that I was telling you about yesterday. So far, it's working really well.

Added DSHttpAdapter.getPath(method, resourceConfig, id|attrs|params[, options]) and DSLocalStorageAdapter.getPath(method, resourceConfig, id|attrs|params[, options])

Example:

var User = DS.defineResource('user');

DSHttpAdapter.getPath('find', User, 1);

Huzzah! Thanks!

It hasn't made it into js-data yet...
