reaxtor-syntax-pathmap

ES6 Template String and Builder function for Creating Falcor Path Maps. Path Maps are an experimental feature that are not in Falcor Master.

Usage

Importing the syntax and initializing a Falcor Model:

~~~js
var falcor = require('falcor');

var model = new falcor.Model({ source: new falcor.HttpDataSource('/model.json') });
~~~

Using a Path Map to retrieve data from a Falcor Model:

~~~js
var range = {length: 2};

var pmap = require('falcor-pathmap-syntax');

var results =
model.
get(pmap
{
genreLists: {
[0..1]: {
name,
titles: {
[${range}]: {
name,
rating,
boxshot
},
length
}
},
length
}
}).
then(({json}) => console.log(JSON.stringify(json,null,2)));
~~~

The code above is equivalent to the following:

~~~js
var range = {length: 2};

var results =
model.
get(
["genreLists", {to:1}, "name"],
["genreLists", {to:1}, "titles", range, ["name","rating","boxshot"]],
["genreLists", {to:1}, "titles", "length"],
["genreLists", "length"]).
then(({json}) => console.log(JSON.stringify(json,null,2)));
