Use with browserify?

[steffenmllr]

Hey there,

any idea how do I use your lib with browserify ? #11 and #67 touch on it but don't really provide a solution. If I try to require the dist/angular-data I get a hole lot of Cannot find module.

I heavily rely on browserify for my app. Would be great if there was a solution.

Did you try just require('angular-data')?

For v2 this works: steffenmllr@21fdedb

I think it would also work for v1 if you did publish the src folder to npm / bower - haven't tried it though.
Evaluating js-data for a project. 5000 sloc is a lot to read through... :)

@jmdobry I's ok with you I have a couple of questions (using the v2) with angular

• How do I do I DSHttpAdapter.DELETE ?
• Is it possible to call refresh on a model instance ?

    ngModule.factory('Streams', function (DS, DSHttpAdapter, CurrentUser) {
        var rs = DS.defineResource({
            name: 'streams',
            methods: {
                unlike: function () {
                    console.log(DSHttpAdapter);
                    var self = this;
                    // How do I DELETE ?
                    // Do I have to use $http for that?
                    DSHttpAdapter.DELETE('/api/streams/'+this.id + '/like').then(function () {
                        // If there an easier way?
                        rs.refresh(self.id);
                    });
                },
                like: function () {
                    var self = this;
                    // Would be great to get the default
                    // DSProvider.defaults.basePath ?
                    DSHttpAdapter.POST('/api/streams/'+this.id + '/like').then(function () {
                        // If there an easier way?
                        rs.refresh(self.id);
                    });
                }
            }
        });        
        return rs;
    });

• My REST API returns a 201 with a header location is there any built in way to handle this or does js-data only works with the full post repsonse?

Streams.create({
    message: scope.stream.newComment
}).then(function (stream) {
  console.log(stream);
});

• DSHttpAdapter.DEL(url[, config]) (same API as $http.delete)
• DSHttpAdapter.HTTP({ url: '/api/endpoint', method: 'DELETE' }) (same API as $http(config))
• DS.refresh('user', 5) or User.refresh(5) or user.DSRefresh()
• create expects the adapter to return the created object, but you can pass cacheResponse: false and create will not attempt to inject the response into data store, e.g. DS.create('user', { name: 'John' }, { cacheResponse: false }). Keep in mind that because your server does not return the created object, nothing will be injected in the store.

Thanks for the insight. It seems like I had to customize a lot of things so I went with es6 classes and it seems to work for my use case. https://gist.github.com/steffenmllr/7a9a2070a983b04c546f
