Followed readme but didn't get JSON data from /api/bulk

[drnic]

Hey, thanks for making this gem and the great write up of the README.

I created a simple one model app [Todo (title, is_done) model] and added two records and called curl http://localhost:3000/api/bulk but am getting {} returned.

I've pushed up my code to https://github.com/drnic/todos-bulk-api-demo - can you spot what I've done wrong? Sorry that I failed at reading the readme correctly :)

I've tested this against latest gem + latest HEAD of master.

Hey,

Try curl http://localhost:3000/api/bulk?todos=all. Your application works fine for me. Creating a todo did not work because you have to tell sproutcore to commit it:

createTodo: function(title) {

• Todos.store.createRecord(Todos.Todo, { title: title });
  • var record = Todos.store.createRecord(Todos.Todo, { title: title });
  • record.commitRecord(); },

You could also use Todos.store.commitRecordsAutomatically = YES.

I had to git clone http://github.com/drogus/bulk_data_source.git app/sproutcore/frameworks/bulk_data_source.

Ahhh, I did not know I needed to pass any parameters into the curl request.

Thanks also for preempting issues I was about to have with creating records :)
