I want to create an array of specific attribute values from a Backbone collection. var days = _.select( this.collection.models, function(model) { return model.attributes.type === 'session'; } ); days = _.pluck(days, 'attributes'), days = _.pluck(days, 'date'); This works, but seems inefficient. Is there a way to accomplish the same thing without having to define days three times? pluck is a convenience method that wraps map , and map is available directly on the collection, which should make this easier. assuming you are trying to get the date attribute out of your models, you can do this:

Can you please suggest me some example for showing list view through marionette template system. Basically, I have a marionette template and based on the template i am creating a table list. seebiscuit To create a list of table rows with Backbone Marionette you'll need to define five things: A model for each row A collection to hold all the row models A CollectionView to iterate through the collection An ItemView to provide row-specific functionality A template for the ItemView that provides the markup for each row Sample Use Case Say you have the following data: var stooges = [{ name: 'moe',

I have an app in backbone that retrieve data from a server. This data are hotels and foreach hotel I have more rooms. I have divided hotel into a json and rooms inside another json like this: hotel.json [ { "id": "1", "name": "Hotel1" }, { "id": "2", "name": "Hotel2" }, { "id": "3", "name": "Hotel3" } ] rooms.json [ { "id" : "r1", "hotel_id" : "1", "name" : "Singola", "level" : "1" }, { "id" : "r1_1", "hotel_id" : "1", "name" : "Doppia", "level" : "2" }, { "id" : "r1_3", "hotel_id" : "1", "name" : "Doppia Uso singol", "level" : "1" }, { "id" : "r2", "hotel_id" : "2", "name" : "Singola", "level

I am trying to set the fuelux datagrid source from my backbone collection. The examples source is here on https://github.com/ExactTarget/fuelux/tree/master/sample . I tired like (function (root, factory) { if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) { define(factory); } else { root.sampleData = factory(); } }(this, function () { return { "geonames": new mycollection ///this will retrurn new collection array as in example }; })); And my backbone render consist following code to instatate data source var dataSource = new StaticDataSource({ columns: [ { property: 'username', label: 'Name',

Fairly new to backbone, so this is a really basic question. I have a Backbone collection passed into a function and I can prove that it has been passed and that the models in the collection have ids. Here's how I'm setting the ids - convertToMapObjects: (results) => objectList = new ObjectList() results.each(result)-> testObj = new TestObject() testObj.set id = result.get("id") objectList.add(testObj) And in another function ( accessed through making the model trigger an event) - getIds: (objects) => ids = (object.id for object in objects) I think the issue may be because of how I'm iterating

From my understanding the default behavior of Backbone JS Models are to return the Collection's URL, unless the model has a urlRoot specified. I can't seem to get the behavior to work. From the documentation: model.url() ... Generates URLs of the form: "[collection.url]/[id]" by default, but you may override by specifying an explicit urlRoot if the model's collection shouldn't be taken into account. Here is my collection, and model respectively: var MyCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend({ model: Model, initialize: function(options){ this.options = options || {}; }, url: function(){ return
