Getting Started

If this package is how you are first learning about EmberData, we recommend starting with learning about the Store and Requests

Request Builders

Request builders are functions that produce Fetch Options. They take a few contextual inputs about the request you want to make, abstracting away the gnarlier details.

For instance, to fetch a resource from your API

import { findRecord } from '@ember-data/rest/request';

const options = findRecord('ember-developer', '1', { include: ['pets', 'friends'] });

/*
  => {
    url: 'https://api.example.com/v1/emberDevelopers/1?include=friends,pets',
    method: 'GET',
    headers: <Headers>, // 'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'
    op: 'findRecord';
    records: [{ type: 'ember-developer', id: '1' }]
  }
*/

Request builder output may be used with either requestManager.request or store.request.

URLs are stable. The same query will produce the same URL every time, even if the order of keys in the query or values in an array changes.

URLs follow the most common REST format (camelCase pluralized resource types).
