Studio Developer Manual / Version 2207
Table Of Contents
Since you have created another EntityController, you have to declare the matching remote beans
the same way you already did for the Note remote bean. That means, you have to declare the interface
import RemoteBean from "@coremedia/studio-client.client-core/data/RemoteBean";
import Note from "./Note";
abstract class Notes extends RemoteBean {
abstract getNotes():Note[];
}
export default Notes;
Example 9.150. Interface for remote bean for notes list
and the implementing class
import { mixin } from "@jangaroo/runtime";
import RemoteBeanImpl from "@coremedia/studio-client.client-core-impl/data/impl/RemoteBeanImpl";
import Note from "./Note";
import Notes from "./Notes";
class NotesImpl extends RemoteBeanImpl implements Notes {
static readonly REST_RESOURCE_URI_TEMPLATE:string = "notes";
constructor(uri:string) {
super(uri);
}
getNotes():Note[] {
return this.get("notes");
}
}
mixin(NotesImpl, Notes);
export default NotesImpl;
Example 9.151. Implementing class for remote bean for notes list
and finally tell Studio that a new remote bean type is there:
BeanFactoryImpl.initBeanFactory().registerRemoteBeanClasses(NoteImpl, NotesImpl)
Example 9.152. Register remote bean with Studio
Rebuild and reload Studio. Once you are logged in, test the new REST controller manually by invoking the
following URL in another browser tab: http://localhost:43080/rest/api/notes/ (the path may differ
depending on your setup). As a result, you should see the following:
{
notes: [
{
$Ref: "notes/note/1"
},
{
$Ref: "notes/note/2"
}
]
}Example 9.153. Test result of remote bean
Note that not the plain JSON of the entities is serialized, but the references to them instead. For every class
that is part of a representation a lookup is made if there is a corresponding EntityController declared
for it. If true, the link to this controller is serialized instead of the linked entity.
Warning
The serialization and deserialization of entities consumed or produced by the EntityController is
never handled by the controller itself. Please do not make any assumptions on how serialization and
deserialization is implemented in your code, as this is not part of the Public API.
Invoke this inside TypeScript:
const notes = as(beanFactory.getRemoteBean("notes"), Notes);
notes.load((loadedNotes):void => {
console.log('I have ${loadedNotes.getNotes().length} notes`);
});Example 9.154. Invoke notes in TypeScript
The code looks similar to the previous example. The matching remote bean is created and loaded and the status of the bean is logged to the console. Note that only the Notes bean has been loaded through this code. The child elements must be loaded separately, so to display everything you can do something like this:
const notes = as(beanFactory.getRemoteBean('notes'), Notes);
notes.load((loadedNotes:Notes) => {
console.log(`I have ${loadedNotes.getNotes().length} notes`);
loadedNotes.getNotes()[0].load(note1 => console.log(note1.getDescription()));
loadedNotes.getNotes()[1].load(note2 => console.log(note2.getDescription()));
});Example 9.155. Display child elements of notes list
The output will look like this:
I have 2 notes I have to write a real storage for this! And a lot of other stuff too!
