I have JSON coming from the server which looks like:
data: {
user: {
address: {
id: "id",
city: "city",
street: "street",
.......
}
name: "name",
......
}
authentication: {
token: "token",
id: "id"
}
}
In Ember I have a model auth which should represent the authentication model that I get from the server. Since I have different names for same model on the server and in the Ember store, I wrote a serializer with one method typeForRoot(root) where I just map server authentication to Ember auth. Problem is that this typeForRoot is actually never invoked, and I do not have a slightly idea why.
Here is Ember auth model:
import DS from 'ember-data';
export default DS.Model.extend({
token: DS.attr('string')
});
And here is my serializer:
import DS from 'ember-data';
import Ember from 'ember';
export default DS.RESTSerializer.extend({
typeForRoot: function(root) {
// 'authentication' should become 'auth'
var subRoot = root.substring(0, root.length - 10);
// _super normalizes 'authentication' to 'auth'
return this._super(subRoot);
}
});
My user model is being properly saved in the store (I’m using a separate, model based, serializer for user), but I get the message WARNING: Encountered "authentication" in payload, but no model was found for model name "authentication" (resolved model name using shop-app@serializer:user:.typeForRoot("authentication"))
when authentication model needs to be saved in auth model in the store.
Does anyone know how can I overcome this problem. Thanks, Milan
