[4.0.4]TreeStore with REST proxy does not use RESTful URL

[Sébastien.Volle]

Ext version tested:

• Ext 4.0.4

Browser versions tested against:

• Chrome 14

Description:

• When using a TreeStore with REST proxy, the URL format to request nodes is '/path_to_api/?<nodeParam>=<nodeId>' instead of '/path_to_api/<id>'

Steps to reproduce the problem:

• Use a Ext.data.TreeStore configured with a Ext.data.proxy.Rest proxy to query a REST API.

The result that was expected:

• The proxy builds a proper REST URL as described above.

The result that occurs instead:

• The proxy builds a URL with query strings parameter instead.

Possible fix:

• TreeStore load() method does not include the 'records' property in the options passed to its proxy. However, the REST proxy needs this parameter to get the record/node id to properly build the URL in the "/my_api/{id}" format. Merely adding 'records: [node]' to the options object (sorta) solves the problem. There still is a slight design issue here.

any solutions in this case ? posible hack or hot fixes ?

[Sébastien.Volle]

I suggested a workaround at the end of the OP.

OP ?

[Sébastien.Volle]

The first post.
If memory serves, you have to hack into the load() method of Ext.data.TreeStore and make sure the options object have a "records" property like that:

options.records = [node];

But I'm not 100% sure about this, that was 7 months ago and I moved away from using Ext.data.TreeStore with a REST proxy.

i moved too ... for ajax but still its some stupid action for eg. i create new node and ajax proxy after store.sync() execute edit method... its big joke for me...

submit : function(button) {
        var win        = button.up('window');
        var form       = win.down('form');
        var record     = form.getRecord();
        var values     = form.getValues();
        var store      = this.getClassificationIndicatorsStore();
        var parent     = this.getClassificationindicatorsIndexTreepanel().getSelectionModel().getLastSelected();
        if (record && record.data) {
            //form.getForm().updateRecord(record);
            store.getNodeById(record.data.id).set('text', values.text);
        } else {
            if(!parent){
                parent = store.getRootNode();
            }
            parent.appendChild({
                    text: values.text,
                    parent_id: values.parent_id,
                });
            parent.expand();
        }
        store.sync();
        win.close();
    }

or more wird i edited properly first time in second time proxy send data witch update 2 records...

Edited
i run the same code on ext 4.1 b3 and tree store works perfect both of proxy ajax and rest, add new node generate POST method, edit PUT ...

@sencha make hotfix for tree store in ExtJs 4.0.7 ! pls.

If so, can anyone please explain me how to do this?

I have my Rest Service being called by the TreeStore with Query Strings every single time it asks for data to the server. I am getting a null response, since the service needs the params to be properly formatted for the Restful service. I have tried lots of things and getting nowhere.

Please somebody provide some help.
