What I am trying to do now is trying to send data to the database via Ajax POST. I will first start with the HTML form I have,
<script type="text/x-handlebars" id="project">
<div class="row">
<div class="span6">
<form class="form-horizontal">
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="projectname">Project Name: </label>
<div class="controls">
{{!view App.TextFieldEmpty}}
<input type="text" id="projectname" required title="First Name is Required!" pattern="[A-z ]{10,}" placeholder="Enter Project Name"/>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="projectdesc">Project Description:</label>
<div class="controls">
<textarea rows="3" id="projectdesc" placeholder="Enter Project Desc"
required="Description Required"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="controls">
<button class="btn" {{action 'createNew'}}>Add Project</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</script>
Next, is my App.js, According to Ember guidelines, we have to map templates first right? So here it is my router:
App.Router.map(function() {
this.resource('project');
});
Next, the table I am inserting the data into is a simple one, having just three fields; id, projectname & projectdesc.
App.Model = Ember.Object.extend({
});
App.Project = App.Model.extend({
id : null,
projectname : null,
projectdesc : null
});
Now about the issue,
App.ProjectController = Ember.ArrayController.extend({
actions : {
createNew : function() {
this.get('model').createNew();
}
}
});
App.ProjectRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
});
App.Project.reopenClass({
createNew : function() {
dataString = $("#project").serialize();
$.ajax({
type : "POST",
url : "http://ankur.local/users/createNewProject",
data : dataString,
dataType : "json",
success : function(data) {
alert("yes");
}
});
}
});
I am getting this error on the console:
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Array] has no method 'createNew'
That appears to be on the line
this.get('model').createNew();
Furthermore, I am using non-RESTful PHP backend.
Even though I think I have created the method in the model. Moroever, I have used the GET exactly this way and it worked but the difference was I returned the method in the model. In this case, I thought I had to call the method from the controller. Where I might be doing wrong? I would appreciate any help or suggestions.
