In #1298, the spec/doc for polymorphic relations was reviewed
**hasX relation**
- `type`: **hasMany**
- `as`: redefines **this** relation's name (optional)
- `model`: **modelTo**
- `polymorphic`:
- typeOf `polymorphic` === `String`
- matching **belongsTo** relation name
- `foreignKey` is generated as `polymorphic + 'Id'`,
- `discriminator` is generated as `polymorphic + 'Type'`
- typeOf `polymorphic` === `Object`
- `as`: **DEPRECATED** should display a warning,
replaced by `selector`
- `selector`: should match **belongsTo** relation name if the
latter is defined with {polymorphic: true}
- (required) if both foreignKey and discriminator
are **NOT** provided
- (extraneous) if both foreignKey and discriminator
are provided
- `foreignKey`: A property of modelTo, representing the fk to
modelFrom's id.
- generated by default as `selector + 'Id'`
- `discriminator`: A property of modelTo, representing the actual
modelFrom to be looked up and defined
dynamically
- generated by default as `selector + 'Type'`
---
**belongsTo relation**
- `type`: **belongsTo**
- `as`: redefines **this** relation's name (optional)
- `model`: **NOT EXPECTED**: should throw an error at
relation validation
- `polymorphic`:
- typeOf `polymorphic` === `Boolean`
- `foreignKey` is generated as `relationName + 'Id'`,
- `discriminator` is generated as `relationName + 'Type'`
- typeOf `polymorphic` === `Object`
- `as`: **DEPRECATED**: should display a warning,
replaced by `selector`
- `selector`:
- (required) if both foreignKey and discriminator
are **NOT** provided
- (extraneous) if both foreignKey and discriminator
are provided
- `foreignKey`: A property of modelTo, representing the fk to
modelFrom's id.
- generated by default as `selector + 'Id'`
- `discriminator`: A property of modelTo, representing the actual
modelFrom to be looked up and defined
dynamically
- generated by default as `selector + 'Type'`
Fix `_targetClass` on scope function when using hasManyThrough
relation with customized relation names and foreignKey/keyThrough.
This bug is cause by `_targetClass` uses the camel-case of
`relationName`(e.g.: if `relationName` is `bbb`, `targetClass`
would be `Bbb`), which is not exists.
This will also suppress "not exposed" warnings when generating
angular sdk, and generate end-points for this scope.
* Fixes#1275 Transform *fields* property into array
`Include` filter takes into consideration string property
'fields' and transforms it into an array containing this string.
* Added error handling for `include` filter.
* ExecTasksWithInterLeave now contains a try-catch block
in order to catch any unexpected errors.
* LinkManyToMany now checks if *modelToIdName* exists on
*target* before continuing.
* Added unit test for *include* with string fields
Defining a model relation with the name "trigger" causes the model not
able to insert records. No error is thrown when a model relation with
the name "trigger" is defined. Adding a check for the model relation
name "trigger" will now throw an error.
Allow direct save of changes on embedded model to be persisted on
parent document.
Person.embedsOne(Address);
Person.findById(someId)
.then(function(p){
var address = p.addressItem();
address.street = 'new street'
// This will now persist changes on parent document
return address.save();
})
[forward-port of #949]
The setting controls the strict mode used for embedded property types,
for example the type of "address" property in this model definition:
modelBuilder.define('TestEmbedded', {
name: 'string',
address: {
street: 'string',
},
});
When a callback is omitted from a method on a model relation that
supports promises, return that promise. This includes all the standard
DAO methods, as well as any user-defined methods that return promises.
e.g.:
mylist.todos.create({name: 'Item 1'}) // returns Promise
This API will use native ES6 promises if available. If not available,
or to force the use of another Promise library, you must assign the
global.Promise object.
e.g.:
global.Promise = require('bluebird')
Relations affected:
- BelongsTo
- HasOne
- HasMany
- HasManyThrough
- HasAndBelongsToMany
- ReferencesMany
- EmbedsOne
Exceptions:
The EmbedsMany relation has not been promisified, because most of the
methods return synchronous values.
The base relation getter method [e.g.: mylist.todos()] has not been
promisified, due to its default caching behavior.
New Methods:
- getAsync(condition, cb)
A new method "getAsync()" has been added to all relations except
EmbedsMany, which always fetches from the datasource rather than from
the cache. It takes an optional "where" condition (except for HasOne
and BelongsTo) and an optional callback. If the callback is omitted,
a Promise is returned.
