findWhere() method not available on Collections

[apsoto]

Not sure if Collections are proxying all the collection methods, but I noticed that findWhere() is not available.

[tgriesser]

Hold on, that bumps the dependency to 1.4.4...

[apsoto]

reason I noticed is that the backbone docs defers to the underscore collection method docs, which has findWhere() documented.

@tgriesser Nope, no dependency bump...look at the change (it mirrors the underscore implementation, as one would expect).

[tgriesser]

My mistake @caseywebdev, should have looked first!

Looks like findWhere is missing from Backbone.Collection() in 1.0.0

[philfreo]

@globexdesigns No, but it's listed separately from the Underscore collection functions

http://backbonejs.org/#Collection-findWhere

[EvHaus]

But when I do:

var collection = new Backbone.Collection() console.log(collection.findWhere)

it returns "undefined"

@globexdesigns Are you sure you're running Backbone 1.0.0?

Here it's in the code: https://github.com/documentcloud/backbone/blob/master/backbone.js#L814-816

Here's a fiddle, run it and check the console. You'll see:

function (attrs) {
      return this.where(attrs, true);
    }

Didn't he say findWhere, not where?

Ok, so maybe there's some condition that's occurring in my code that's causing the function to get undefined. I'll take a look and get back to you. But based on earlier comments, it seems I'm not the only one that this happened to.

Yeah, collection.findWhere doesn't seem to work. I just used _.findWhere.(collection.models, function(.....

[EvHaus]

Yup. I was not using 1.0.0. This is a non-issue.
