extendModel not working as I'd expect

[uberspeck]

I'm trying to create a basic data model but methods applied via extendModel are not being recognized...

  myApp.service( "User", ($log, Restangular) ->
    #
    # Collection methods
    Restangular.extendCollection("users", (obj) ->
      angular.extend(obj,
        get: (id) ->
          @one(id).get()
      )
    )
    #
    # Record methods
    Restangular.extendModel("users", (obj) ->
      angular.extend(obj,
        talk: ->
          alert "hi"
      )
    )
    Restangular.all("users")
  )

...then in my controller:

  myApp.controller( "EditUserCtrl", ($stateParams, User) ->

    vm = @

    User.get($stateParams.userId).then( (response) ->
      vm.record = response
      vm.record.talk() # <= undefined function error???
    )
  )

To be more concrete, in my case I have the following issue:

• I register the api like this:

  api = registerApi('/foo/bar/', function(model)
  {
    model.getDropDownId    = function() { return this['@id']; };
    model.getDropDownValue = function() { return this.title;   };
  
    return model;
  });

• The later when I call this, everything works:

  api.getList().then(function(data)
  {
    console.log(data[0].getDropDownValue());
  
    // Returns: test
  });

• But if I call this in the same context I am getting a TypeError: data.getDropDownValue is not a function:

  api.one(1).get().then(function(data)
  {
    console.log(data.getDropDownValue());
  });

... and as I wrote this comment, I figured out that this is working:

    api.get(1).then(function(data)
    {
        console.log(data.getDropDownValue());
    });

I think the problem is when you define your service. Try something like this:

 .service("User", function($log, Restangular) {
   var User = Restangular.all("users");

  Restangular.extendCollection("users", function(obj) {
    return angular.extend(obj, {
      get: function(id) {
        return this.one(id).get();
      }
    });
  });
  Restangular.extendModel("users", function(obj) {
    return angular.extend(obj, {
      talk: function() {
        return alert("hi");
      }
    });
  });

  return User
}
