Problem with localstorage store and model with hasMany association

Is store with 'localstorage' proxy is support a models with hasMany associations?
I have a model with one hasMany association:

Code:

---

Ext.define('Cart', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
    config: {
        fields: [
            {name: 'id', type: 'string'},
            {name: 'created', type: 'date'}
            {name: 'status', type: 'boolean'}
        ],
        idProperty: 'id',
        identifier: {
            type: 'uuid'
        },
        associations: [
            {
                type: 'hasMany',
                model: 'Product',
                associationKey: 'products',
                foreignKey: 'cart_id',
                name: 'products',
                autoLoad: true
            }
        ]
    }
});

Ext.define('Product', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
    config: {
        fields: [
            {name: 'product_id', type: 'string'},
            {name: 'quantity', type: 'integer'},
            {name: 'cart_id', type: 'string'},
        ],
        idProperty: 'product_id',
        belongsTo: 'Cart'
    }
});

---

my store with localstorage proxy:

Code:

---

Ext.define('Cartstore', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Store',
    config: {
        model: 'Cart',
        proxy: {
            type: 'localstorage',
            id: 'carts'
        }
    }
});

---

I tried to add record to store:

Code:

---

var newCart = Ext.create('Cart', {
            'created': new Date(),
            'status': true
        });
        newCart.products().add(Ext.create('Product', {
            'product_id': 10,
            'quantity': 1
        }));

        Ext.getStore('Cartstore').add(newCart).sync();

---

After that I see in localstorage first model data only without associated data.
No errors in console. But no associated data in localstorage.
Where I am wrong?

I think you should define a localstorage for your products and use the foreign key to select the right products when loading. I think the reason for you problem is found in the documentation, since localstorage says:

Quote:

---

HTML5 localStorage is a key-value store (e.g. cannot save complex objects like JSON), so LocalStorageProxy automatically serializes and deserializes data when saving and retrieving it.

---

You might also have luck in configuring the store and/or writer, but I think having them in separate stores will be better. I've been programming with nested stores since yesterday (due to nested data in my JSON service) and I have to say I don't think it's pretty compared to normal store setup.

Make two separate stores for a cart and products - it's a good idea.
But I do not see any barriers for the storage of models with hasMany association because data is stored as single JSON-string.
Most likely this is error in localstorage proxy... or this proxy simply not support hasMany associations.
If so - then let the developers will confirm this.

I don't know if you have seen it, but this seems to answer your question: http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...l=1#post762500

It's not currently supported but something Tommy is working on how best to do it, it's actually harder than it seems.

for now my problem was fixed by adding a store configuration into hasMany association config (http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/...ny-cfg-store):

Code:

---

associations: [            {
                type: 'hasMany',
                model: 'Product',
                associationKey: 'products',
                foreignKey: 'cart_id',
                name: 'products',
                autoLoad: true,
                store: {
                    model: 'Product',
                    proxy: {
                        type: 'localstorage',
                        id: 'products'
                    }
                }
            }
        ]

---

and what is the result? I can store and read stored data with hasMany association.
As it turned, all included :)

I have not yet quite completely done tests about possibility of working with hasMany data. If I have any problems - I'll write here.

I took kostysh's ideas and made it almost work. The problem is that the products store is acting global, so anytime you add a new cart, all products previously saved are now associated with the NEW cart, not the old ones that they were added to. I need multiple carts and each cart to have its own separate list of products. Is that even possible?

For an app that ONLY needs one cart, this would work, but I am just using this as a proof of concept before I apply my more complex data - where I need a main list of items, each with its own list of associated items.

This code plus the sencha include is all you need to test

When creating a new item (cart), internally it is calling load, and then read (when newCart.products() is first called). The read function is sent a filter with the new items uuid, but that filter is not applied, and instead all records are UPDATED to use the new uuid, instead of filtered to match the new uuid.

I changed my Ext.data.proxy.WebStorage.read() in the sencha 2 library to be:

Code:

---

read: function(operation, callback, scope) {
        var records    = [],
            ids        = this.getIds(),
            model      = this.getModel(),
            idProperty = model.getIdProperty(),
            params    = operation.getParams() || {},
            length    = ids.length,
            i, record, filters, tmpRecords = [];

        filters = operation.getFilters() || [];

        //read a single record
        if (params[idProperty] !== undefined) {
            record = this.getRecord(params[idProperty]);
            if (record) {
                tmpRecords.push(record);
                //operation.setSuccessful();
            }
        } else {
            for (i = 0; i < length; i++) {
                tmpRecords.push(this.getRecord(ids[i]));
                //operation.setSuccessful();
            }
        }
       
        // remove items that dont match filter
        if(filters.length > 0)
        {
            for(i = 0; i < tmpRecords.length; i++)
            {
                var add = true;
               
                for(var x = 0; x < filters.length; x++)
                {
                    if(tmpRecords[i].data[filters[x]._property] != filters[x]._value)
                    {
                        add = false;
                    }
                }
               
                if(add)
                {
                    records.push(tmpRecords[i]);
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            records = tmpRecords;
        }
       
        if(records.length > 0)
        {
            operation.setSuccessful();
        }

        operation.setCompleted();

        operation.setResultSet(Ext.create('Ext.data.ResultSet', {
            records: records,
            total  : records.length,
            loaded : true
        }));
        operation.setRecords(records);

        if (typeof callback == 'function') {
            callback.call(scope || this, operation);
        }
    }

And it works! Loading the data, and adding new data! I have not yet tested adding new products to an existing cart. I will do that next.

Adding new products to existing cart works totally fine too

Code:

---

// add new products to existing cart
existingCart = cart.data.items[0];
                   
existingCart.products().add(Ext.create('Product', {
    'product_id': 99,
    'quantity': 100
}));

existingCart.products().sync();

Janelle, you totally rock. Your override works wonderfully. Thank you!
