Methods

addModel
( Anoynomous Function methods)

Creates an ORM model reference.

Parameters

  • Anoynomous Function methods :

    • enable("value") : STRING Optional

      Enables Model Properties.

      Possible Values :

      sync

      If set then model is set for RhoConnect Sync.

      (Default) Model will be of type propertyBag.

      fixedSchema

      Model will be of type fixedSchema.

      full_update

      Instruct ORM to send all attributes to RhoConnect when an object is updated. By Default it is disabled.

      pass_through

      RhoConnect provides a simple way to keep data out of redis. If you have sensitive data that you do not want saved in redis, add the pass_through option in settings/settings.yml for each source.

    • setModelproperty("name","type","option") : STRING,STRING,STRING Optional

      Used to create properties on your model.

      • name : STRING

      Sets the Behavior of this model. Possible ‘property’ options and the corresponding ‘value’s are passed as the parameter.

      • partition : STRING

        Possible Values :

        local

        This partition is used automatically if the model is not a sync model.

        user

        This partition is used automatically if the model is a sync model.

        If the model is used only for bulk sync.

      • sync_priority : INTEGER

        This number determines the order in which the models are processed and synchronised. Priority starts from lower value 1. Lower the number, higher is the priority. Default value is 1000.

Examples

addModel

This example describes creating model and adding model object.

var Customer = function(model){
  model.enable("sync");
  model.setModelProperty("name","string","");
  model.setModelProperty("brand","string","");
  model.setModelProperty("price","float","");
  model.set("partition","user");
  model.set("schema_version",'1.1');
};
var custobj = Rho.ORM.addModel("Customer", Customer);
// create model object and save it to database
var customer = custobj.createObject({
  brand: "Apple",
  name: "iPhone5",
  price: 199.99});
databaseFullResetEx

This example clears the local model’s passed through the array only. It doesn’t reset the client_info table.

var ary = ['Product','Product2'];               
Rho.ORM.databaseFullResetEx(ary, false, true);
                            
ary = ['Product','Product2']                
Rho.ORM.databaseFullResetEx(ary, false, true)
