How can I set beforepath in delete?

[a-radys]

Hello, How can I set beforepath when deleting a record? I tried to do it like in all method: this.setupService.delete(id, { beforepath: 'setup' }) but the path is not changed so it doesn't work.

Hi @aradys , are you still experiencing this issue? I Have just checked the code and the beforepath should be correctly set...

This is Service class delete method:

public delete(id: string, params?: Object): Observable<void> {
    params = { ...{}, ...Base.ParamsResource, ...params };

    // http request
    let path = new PathBuilder();
    path.applyParams(this, params);
    path.appendPath(id);
    ...

And this in path-builder.ts:

public applyParams(service: Service, params: IParamsResource | IParamsCollection = {}) {
    this.appendPath(service.getPrePath());
    if (params.beforepath) {
        this.appendPath(params.beforepath);
    }
    this.appendPath(service.getPath());
    if (params.include) {
        this.setInclude(params.include);
    }
}

I have just tested it and it's working fine... if the problem persists, maybe you can send a plunkr to test.

It's still not working. I found out that my beforepath is set in params like this:

params: {
  beforepath: ""
  id: ""
  include: []
  params: {beforepath: "setup"}
  ttl: null
}

so it fails in PathBuilder.prototype.applyParams in line 157:

        if (params.beforepath) {
            this.appendPath(params.beforepath);
        }

Is it possible to set default beforepath in the service for all operations? Not to set it each time for each delete. Maybe that would solve the issue.

Yes @aradys, you can set a method on your service:

export class AuthorsService extends Service<Author> {
    public resource = Author;
    public type = 'authors';

    public getPrePath() {
        return 'foo_path/bar_path';
    }
}

Also, remember you have global cofiguration:

    NgxJsonapiModule.forRoot({
        url: '//api.yourserver.com/v1/foo_path'
    }),
