Consuming RESTApi #717

Open aalasolutions-zz opened 4 years ago

aalasolutions-zz commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I have used orbit with ember with JSONAPI, very nice implementation. Now I need to work on app which backend is in RESTApi.

Is there any guide on how to use that? or if even this is implemented? if not any plans for that.

thanks

@jakecraige well, i can not change backend which is in RESTAPI, i only can use that

@aalasolutions At this point, you'd probably need to build your own serializer to handle it. Extending the JSONAPISerializer & overriding the deserialize method would be great starting point.

I have the same question — if we're working with a bunch of existing APIs and want to "connect" all the data into Orbit, do we always need to extend JSONAPISerializer? I feel like this is a rather common use case. Is there a util that takes any array of json objects and "maps" it according to a given schema and into memory?
