data_storage json string to function rather than to url about dante2 HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi @vephinx ,
what would be the use case for that need ?
maybe you can accomplish that using the callbacks around the store function, like

      xhr: before_handler() 
      data_storage: success_handler(result)
      xhr: success_handler(result)
      xhr: failure_handler(error)

@michelson I'm using Meteor and I would like to set the content to a document in my collection and let Meteor handle passing it to the server.

@vephinx what you mean by set the content to a document in my collection ?
why you don't let the server handle that ?

from dante2.

@michelson So on the client I subscribe to a collection called notes. I would like to call the function saveContent (see below), instead of calling a URL. This automatically pushes the changes to the server using Meteor magic.

saveContent = function(json) {
  note = notes.findOne({ _id: noteId});
  note.content = json;
};

sorry , I don't use meteor so don't know which is the magic it does.
in Meteor is possible to update the note on memory ? without touch the server?, let's say when D2 hits the server it will return the contents and then you could update the model, using the callbacks so you could keep the model in sync.

Anyway you could check the save_content.coffee and see how it works maybe it could be a good idea to make this configurable in order to use another solution or extend the same class.

@michelson I made these changes to save_content.coffee
Line 15 I commented out:

# return unless @config.data_storage.url

And on line 47 I added:

@config.data_storage.save_handler(JSON.stringify(content)) if @config.data_storage.save_handler
return unless @config.data_storage.url

Now I can do:

          data_storage: {
            interval: 1500,
            save_handler: saveContent
          }

Hi @vephinx, cool! that should be enough to make it work , are you going to make a PR for this ? if not I could update the source un the next days in order to close this issue

happy holidays!

hi @vephinx , version 0.3.2 implements the save_handler in data_storage to override the ajax

cheers
