Based on loopback documentations, We can override remote methods.I want to override PUT : /products/{id} requests.
I try this:
module.exports = function (product) {
product.save = function(data,callback){
callback();
}
};
I try it with : update , updateAttributes , upsert and all related methods but still not working...
Although overriding create method working but update no!
Is there any suggestion?
Use product.prototype can trigger put requests like this :
product.prototype.updateAttributes = function (data,callback) {
console.log('updateAttributes');
callback();
};
If you want to disable the API end point, you can use the following,
Product.disableRemoteMethod('update', true)
Product.disableRemoteMethod('updateAttributes', true)
Product.disableRemoteMethod('upsert', true)

I am trying to find out all the remote method of model and its end-point/properties ? How can I get it in loopback 3 ?
There are similar discussions on github:
get all remote methods for managing permission
List remote methods added by relations
Below is the code they recommend to use to get all the remote methods for a particular model:
function getActiveRemoteMethods(model) {
const activeRemoteMethods = model.sharedClass
.methods({ includeDisabled: false })
.reduce((result, sharedMethod) => {
Object.assign(result, {
[sharedMethod.name]: sharedMethod.isStatic,
});
return result;
}, {});
return activeRemoteMethods;
}
I'm wondering if it is possible to access variable / method of a template in iron:router.
My problem is : I want to reset a lot of stuff launched by my template (timer / subscription / whatever) on the page unload (from a change page menu)
But the window.onBeforeUnload is only triggered when we are changing the url. But my Iron:router is not reffreshing page and the only way i found to get this unload event is passing by iron:router's unload event. But there, I just can't access to my template variable or method. So the only way i found at the moment is passing my reset var by session... And i find this very awful !
Router.route('/printList', {
name: 'printjoblistList',
unload: function () {
var reset = Session.get("sessionTestIronRouter");
}
Have you got advice, tips and bests ways to do that ? :)
Ok, solved this, not very clean though.
I declared a globalHelper in my template client size :
Template.registerHelper('functionToCall', function () {
// Code here
});
and in my unload iron's route :
Router.route('/template', {
name: 'myTemplate',
unload: function (e, obj) {
Blaze._globalHelpers.functionToCall();
}
});
In Loopback it is easy to include relational objects when querying for data. For example, one can include all the comments that belong to a blog post in a single call using the include filter.
But in my case I want to get data that doesn't have a relation.
I have a User Detail page. On that page a user can choose a username and there's also a dropdown list where a user can choose from what country he is.
So from the client side I do something like:
Country.find().$promise.then(function(countryData) {
$scope.countries = countryData;
});
Player.find().$promise.then(function(playerData) {
$scope.player = playerData;
}
But what if I get more lists that I want to fill? Like, city, state, colors etc.
Then I'd have to make a lot of separate calls.
Is there a way to include all this data in one call, eventhough they have no relation? Something like this:
Player.find({ filter: { include: ["countries", "colors"] } }).$promise.then(function(data) {
// some stuff
}
You may want to try using the Where filter as documented here
An example of this for querying two specific things would be:
Post.find({where: {and: [{title: 'My Post'}, {content: 'Hello'}]}},
function (err, posts) {
...
});
You could create a remote method on one of your models that makes the calls internally and packages them back up for you.
Use some promise library if not using ES6 to wait for all and then return
Model.getAll = function(next) {
var promises = [];
promises.push(Model.app.models.Country.find());
promises.push(Model.app.models.Player.find());
promises.push(Model.app.models.Color.find());
Promise.all(promises)
.then(function(results) {
next(results);
});
}
/**
Register your remote method here
*/

I have problem and try with this solution but i get error "Failed with multiple errors, see details for more information.". It seems like there is bug on Loopback while using promise.all
I want to be able to retrieve a certain conversation when its id is entered in the URL. If the conversation does not exist, I want to display an alert message with a record not found.
here is my model hook :
model: function(params){
return this.store.filter('conversation', { status : params.status}, function(rec){
if(params.status == 'all'){
return ((rec.get('status') === 'opened' || rec.get('status') === 'closed'));
}
else{
return (rec.get('status') === params.status); <--- Problem is here
}
});
}
For example, if I want to access a certain conversation directly, I could do :
dev.rails.local:3000/conversations/email.l#email.com#/convid
The problem is when I enter a conversation id which doesn't exist (like asdfasdf), ember makes call to an inexisting backend route.
It makes a call to GET conversation/asdfasdf. I'm about sure that it is only due to the record not existing. I have nested resources in my router so I'm also about sure that it tries to retrieve the conversation with a non existing id.
Basically, I want to verify the existence of the conversation before returning something from my hook. Keep in mind that my model hook is pretty much set and won't change, except for adding a validation on the existence of the conversation with the id in the url. The reason behind this is that the project is almost complete and everything is based on this hook.
Here is my router (some people are going to tell me you can't use nested resources, but I'm doing it and it is gonna stay like that so I have to work with it because I'm working on a project and I have to integrate ember in this section only and I have to use this setup) :
App.Router.map(function(){
// Routing list to raw namespace path
this.resource('conversations', { path : '/' }, function() {
this.resource('conversation', { path : '/:conversation_id'});
});
});
This also happens when I dont specify any id and I use the hashtag in my url like this :
dev.rails.local:3000/conversations/email.l#email.com#/ would make a call to conversation/
I know it is because of my nested resource. How can I do it?
By passing a query to filter (your { status : params.status}) you are asking Ember Data to do a server query. Try removing it.
From the docs at http://emberjs.com/api/data/classes/DS.Store.html#method_filter:
Optionally you can pass a query, which is the equivalent of calling find with that same query, to fetch additional records from the server. The results returned by the server could then appear in the filter if they match the filter function.
So, remove the query:
model: function(params){
return this.store.filter('conversation', function(rec) {
if (params.status == 'all') {
return rec.get('status') === 'opened' || rec.get('status') === 'closed';
} else {
return rec.get('status') === params.status;
}
});
}
Ok so here is what I did. I removed my nested resource because I realised I wasn't using it for any good reason other than redirecting my url. I decided to manually redirect my url using javascript window.location.
This removed the unwanted call (which was caused by the nested resource).
Thanks to torazaburo, you opened my eyes on many things.
I'm very new to testing controllers and I'm running into a problem with a method(). I believe I'm either missing something in my test or my Controller / Repository is designed incorrectly.
The application I'm writing is basically one of those secure "one time" tools. Where you create a note, the system provides you with a URL, once that url is retrieved the note is deleted. I actually have the application written but I am going back to write tests for practice (I know that's backwards).
My Controller:
use OneTimeNote\Repositories\NoteRepositoryInterface as Note;
class NoteController extends \Controller {
protected $note;
public function __construct(Note $note)
{
$this->note = $note;
}
public function getNote($url_id, $key)
{
$note = $this->note->find($url_id, $key);
if (!$note) {
return \Response::json(array('message' => 'Note not found'), 404);
}
$this->note->delete($note->id);
return \Response::json($note);
}
...
I've injected my Note interface in to my controller and all is well.
My Test
use \Mockery as M;
class OneTimeNoteTest extends TestCase {
public function setUp()
{
parent::setUp();
$this->mock = $this->mock('OneTimeNote\Repositories\EloquentNoteRepository');
}
public function mock($class)
{
$mock = M::mock($class);
$this->app->instance($class, $mock);
return $mock;
}
public function testShouldReturnNoteObj()
{
// Should Return Note
$this->mock->shouldReceive('find')->once()->andReturn('test');
$note = $this->call('GET', '/note/1234567890abcdefg/1234567890abcdefg');
$this->assertEquals('test', $note->getContent());
}
}
...
The error I'm getting
1) OneTimeNoteTest::testShouldReturnNoteObj
ErrorException: Trying to get property of non-object
/Users/andrew/laravel/app/OneTimeNote/Controllers/NoteController.php:24
Line 24 is in reference to this line found in my controller:
$this->note->delete($note->id);
Basically my abstracted repository method delete() obviously can't find $note->id because it really doesn't exist in the testing environment. Should I create a Note within the test and try to actually deleting it? Or would that be something that should be a model test? As you can see I need help, thanks!
----- Update -----
I tried to stub the repository to return a Note object as Dave Marshall mentioned in his answer, however I'm now receiving another error.
1) OneTimeNoteTest::testShouldReturnNoteObj
BadMethodCallException: Method Mockery_0_OneTimeNote_Repositories_EloquentNoteRepository::delete() does not exist on this mock object
I do have a delete() method in my repository and I know it's working when I test my route in the browser.
public function delete($id)
{
Note::find($id)->delete();
}
You are stubbing the note repository to return a string, PHP is then trying to retrieve the id attribute of a string, hence the error.
You should stub the repository to return a Note object, something like:
$this->mock->shouldReceive('find')->once()->andReturn(new Note());
Building upon Dave's answer, I was able to figure out what my problem is. I wasn't mocking the delete() method. I didn't understand the need to mock each individual method in my controller that would be called.
I just added this line:
$mock->shouldReceive('delete')->once()->andReturnNull();
Since my delete method is just deleting the note after it is found, I went ahead and mocked it but set it to return null.
