CollectionManager.getCollectionPromiseByType(item, item['@type')

Returns the owning collection for the raw json of an object that doesn’t have a model yet. Primarily used when receiving an object on the websocket

Ex: A harvester changes the title of an idea. The updated idea will be put on the websocket by the backend. All frontends (all connected users) will recieve this json. It is fed in this function so that the corresponding model in the collection can be updated (this update does NOT happen in this method)

Arguments:
  • item (BaseModel) –
  • item['@type' (string) – The model type
Return type:

BaseCollection
CollectionManager.getDiscussionModelPromise()

Returns the model of discussions

Return type:BaseModel
CollectionManager.getDiscussionPreferencePromise()

Returns the collection of preferences for this discussion

Return type:BaseCollection
CollectionManager.getDiscussionSourceCollectionPromise()

Returns the collection of external sources for discussions

Return type:

BaseCollection
CollectionManager.getLocalRoleCollectionPromise()

Returns the collection of roles (a set of permissions)

Return type:BaseCollection
CollectionManager.getMessageFullModelPromise(id, messagesStructureCollectionPromise)

This returns a promise to a SINGLE model. In practice, this model is a member of the proper collection, and requests to the server are optimised and batched together. Primarily used by messages to get the actual body and other information we do not want to eagerly preload.

Arguments:
  • id (String) –
  • messagesStructureCollectionPromise (Promise) – (optional) A promise containing a structure of messages (messages ids and how they are related to each other, but not necessarily their content), for which you want to download the message contents. Defaults to the general message structure collection promise (this.getAllMessageStructureCollectionPromise()), which contains all messages except deleted messages which removal does not break the structure. For example, if you want to show in the messageList the presence of all messages including all deleted messages, you need to set this parameter to a promise which contains the structure of absolutely all messages.
Return type:

Promise
CollectionManager.getMessageFullModelRequestWorker(collectionManager, messagesStructureCollectionPromise)

This class is essentially a subprocess that receives requests for specific models and a specific viewdef and: - Combines them together to avoid swarming the server - Splits them to respect limits on http get url length - Dispaches the individual promises for each request even if they were actually processed together.

Arguments:
  • collectionManager (Object) –
  • messagesStructureCollectionPromise (Promise) – (optional) A promise containing a structure of messages (messages ids and how they are related to each other, but not necessarily their content), for which you want to download the message contents. Defaults to the general message structure collection promise (collectionManager.getAllMessageStructureCollectionPromise()), which contains all messages except deleted messages which removal does not break the structure. For example, if you want to show in the messageList the presence of all messages including all deleted messages, you need to set this parameter to a promise which contains the structure of absolutely all messages.
Return type:

Promise
CollectionManager.getMessageFullModelsPromise(ids)

TODO: This method seems to not be used anywhere in the code. Remove it or use it. If we use it, add a second parameter messagesStructureCollectionPromise like in getMessageFullModelPromise(). Retrieve fully populated models for the list of id’s given

Arguments:
  • ids (Array.<string>) – array of message id’s
Return type:

MessageModel
