Can backbone models and collections be created dynamically or do you need to create a .js file for e
1 Comment
Both methods work. The following executes successfully for me:
Kinvey.init({
appKey : '',
appSecret : ''
}).then(function (activeUser) {
var books = new Kinvey.Backbone.Collection([], {
url: 'books'
});
var promise = books.fetch({
success: function () {
console.log("Success fetching books!");
},
error: function () {
console.log("Error fetching books");
}
});
});
You mentioned this doesn’t work for you - can you provide me with the error message, or description what actually happens?

Kinvey.init({
appKey : '***',
appSecret : '***'
})
.then(function (activeUser) {
//fetch a model
var books = new BooksCollection();
var promise = books.fetch({
success: function() {
console.log("Success fetching books!");
},
error: function() {
console.log("Error fetching books");
}
});
});
However, if instead, I instantiate the books object like this, it doesn't work:
var books = new Kinvey.Backbone.Collection([], {
url: 'books'
});
The URL is all that is in the books collection. Shouldn't it work the other way as well? The info I was following is here:
