single dimensional array in store

[radtad]

Is there a way to do this? I've searched around and saw this, but it doesn't work in 4.0.

http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?53594-ArrayReader-with-single-dimensional-array&highlight=dimensional+array




Ext.define('Job', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [{name: 'job'}]
});

var jobs_store = Ext.create('Ext.data.ArrayStore', {
model: 'Job',
proxy: {
type: 'ajax',
url: '/test',
reader: 'array'
}
});


This is what the server returns that the store has to load in.


["test1","test2","test3"]



I've tried all sorts of different store configurations and nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

Solution 1 - use loadData && expandData=true



var data = ['val1', 'val2', 'val3'];

Ext.define('JobA', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{name: 'job'}
]
});

Ext.onReady(function() {

var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.ArrayStore', {
model: 'JobA',
data: data,
expandData: true // this is tied to ArrayStore#loadData only
});

store.loadData(data);
store.each(function(item) {
console.log(item.get('job'));
})

});



Solution 2 - use convert in field definition



var data = ['val1', 'val2', 'val3'];

Ext.define('Job', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{name: 'job', convert: function(value, record) {
return record.raw;
}}
]
});

Ext.onReady(function() {
var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.ArrayStore', {
model: 'JobB',
data: data,
});

store.each(function(item) {
console.log(item.get('job'));
})
});


Solution 3 - use a custom Reader & extractor




Ext.define('Ext.data.reader.FlatArray', {
extend: 'Ext.data.reader.Json',

alias: 'reader.flatarray',

buildExtractors: function() {
this.callParent(arguments);

if(this.model.prototype.fields.items.length > 1) {
throw new Error('FlatArray does not support more than one field! ' +
'Check your Model definition for ' + this.model.$className);
}
this.extractorFunctions = [ (function(data) {
return data;
}) ];
}
});




Solution 4 - use a custom Reader that restructures the input array


This could also support a model with multiple fields (if that makes sense?)



var data = ['Record1.Val1', 'Record1.Val2', 'Record2.Val1', 'Record2.Val2', 'Record3.Val1', 'Record3.Val2'];

Ext.define('Ext.data.reader.FlatArray', {
extend: 'Ext.data.reader.Json',

alias: 'reader.flatarray',

getData: function(root) {
var fields = this.model.prototype.fields.items,
fieldsCount = fields.length,
records = [];

var count = 0; // total number of records
for (var i = 0; i < root.length; i += fieldsCount) {
var data = {};
for (var j = 0; j < fieldsCount; j++) {
var field = fields[j];
var fieldIdx = field.mapping || j;
data[field.name] = root[count * fieldsCount + fieldIdx];
}
records.push(data);
count++;

}
return records;
}

});

Ext.define('Job', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
'id', 'job'
],
proxy: {
type: 'memory',
reader: 'flatarray',
data: data
}
});


Ext.onReady(function() {
// code goes here

// note: ArrayStore will setup a memory proxy for us with reader: 'array'
var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
model: 'Job'
});

store.on('load', function() {
store.each(function(item) {
console.log(item.get('id') + ' / ' + item.get('job'));
});
}, this);

store.load();
});

Thanks for the many solutions mberrie!! All were greatly appreciated. I ended up using solution #2 which works great! Thanks again!

I tried solution #2 but its not working for me. I mean it works if I specify data in arrayStore but as sooon as i replace data with ajax proxy it stopped working.
Here is my code

Model is
Ext.define('CCAdmin.model.Authority', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{name: 'privileges', convert: function(value, record) {
return record.raw;
}
}
]
});

store is
Ext.define('CCAdmin.store.Authority', {
extend: 'Ext.data.ArrayStore',
id: 'Authority',
autoLoad: false,
model: 'CCAdmin.model.Authority',
// data:data

proxy: {
type: 'ajax',
url : 'resources/data/Priviliges.js',
}
});

my Privileges.js file
['val1', 'val2', 'val3']

I am getting below error

records is undefined



chrome://firebug/content/blank.gif


length = records.length;ext-all-dev.js (line 68136)





Then in main app.js i am loading the store. Please let me know if I am doing anything wring here.
