    Default Store same Model via a different response format

    Store same Model via a different response format


    What's the best way to get server data into a store if the response format is different from one web service to another? Example:

    user/1 returns
    Code:
    {response:
        {id:1, name:'Charles'}
    }
    ...but favorites/2 returns
    Code:
    {data:{
        person:{id:2, name:'Snoopy'},
        favorites:[
            {id:1, name:'Charles'},
            {id:3, name:'Woodstock'}
        ]
    }}
    ...and my Person model has a convert function like
    Code:
    Ext.define('Person',{
        extend:'Ext.data.Model',
        config:{
            fields:[
                {
                   name:'name', 
                   type:'string',
                   convert:function(value,record){
                       //If the name is Charles, change it to Blockhead
                       if(value == 'Charles'){return 'Blockhead';}
                       else{return value;}
                   }
               }
            ]
        }
    })
    In other words, how can I ensure that Charles gets stored properly regardless of the source web service?

    Looks like you have different roots, you need to have the reader configured to use the root that you need.

    @Mitchell, I need a way to accommodate both services with the same Model and Store. Are you suggesting that I do something like this (shown below)?
    Code:
    var store = Ext.getStore('Person'),
        proxy = store.getProxy();
    
    proxy.setUrl('favorites/2');
    proxy.getReader().setRootProperty('data.favorites');
    store.load();
