    • summary
      JsonRestStore is a Dojo Data store interface to JSON HTTP/REST web
      storage services that support read and write through GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE.
    • parameters:
      • options: (typeof Keyword)
        arguments
        
        The *schema* parameter
        This is a schema object for this store. This should be JSON Schema format.
        
        The *service* parameter
        This is the service object that is used to retrieve lazy data and save results
        The function should be directly callable with a single parameter of an object id to be loaded
        The function should also have the following methods:
        put(id,value) - puts the value at the given id
        post(id,value) - posts (appends) the value at the given id
        delete(id) - deletes the value corresponding to the given id
        Note that it is critical that the service parses responses as JSON.
        If you are using dojox.rpc.Service, the easiest way to make sure this
        happens is to make the responses have a content type of
        application/json. If you are creating your own service, make sure you
        use handleAs: "json" with your XHR requests.
        
        The *target* parameter
        This is the target URL for this Service store. This may be used in place
        of a service parameter to connect directly to RESTful URL without
        using a dojox.rpc.Service object.
        
        The *idAttribute* parameter
        Defaults to 'id'. The name of the attribute that holds an objects id.
        This can be a preexisting id provided by the server.
        If an ID isn't already provided when an object
        is fetched or added to the store, the autoIdentity system
        will generate an id for it and add it to the index.
        
        The *syncMode* parameter
        Setting this to true will set the store to using synchronous calls by default.
        Sync calls return their data immediately from the calling function, so
        callbacks are unnecessary

    • description
      The JsonRestStore will cause all saved modifications to be sent to the server using Rest commands (PUT, POST, or DELETE).
      When using a Rest store on a public network, it is important to implement proper security measures to
      control access to resources.
      On the server side implementing a REST interface means providing GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE handlers.
      GET - Retrieve an object or array/result set, this can be by id (like /table/1) or with a
      query (like /table/?name=foo).
      PUT - This should modify a object, the URL will correspond to the id (like /table/1), and the body will
      provide the modified object
      POST - This should create a new object. The URL will correspond to the target store (like /table/)
      and the body should be the properties of the new object. The server's response should include a
      Location header that indicates the id of the newly created object. This id will be used for subsequent
      PUT and DELETE requests. JsonRestStore also includes a Content-Location header that indicates
      the temporary randomly generated id used by client, and this location is used for subsequent
      PUT/DELETEs if no Location header is provided by the server or if a modification is sent prior
      to receiving a response from the server.
      DELETE - This should delete an object by id.
      These articles include more detailed information on using the JsonRestStore:

      http://blog.medryx.org/2008/07/24/jsonreststore-overview/
    • example
      A JsonRestStore takes a REST service or a URL and uses it the remote communication for a
      read/write dojo.data implementation. A JsonRestStore can be created with a simple URL like:
      
      	new JsonRestStore({target:"/MyData/"});
    • example
      To use a JsonRestStore with a service, you should create a
      service with a REST transport. This can be configured with an SMD:
      
      	{
      		services: {
      			jsonRestStore: {
      				transport: "REST",
      				envelope: "URL",
      				target: "store.php",
      				contentType:"application/json",
      				parameters: [
      					{name: "location", type: "string", optional: true}
      				]
      			}
      		}
      	}
      The SMD can then be used to create service, and the service can be passed to a JsonRestStore. For example:
      
      	var myServices = new dojox.rpc.Service(dojo.moduleUrl("dojox.rpc.tests.resources", "test.smd"));
      	var jsonStore = new dojox.data.JsonRestStore({service:myServices.jsonRestStore});
    • example
      The JsonRestStore also supports lazy loading. References can be made to objects that have not been loaded.
      For example if a service returned:
      
      	{"name":"Example","lazyLoadedObject":{"$ref":"obj2"}}
      And this object has accessed using the dojo.data API:
      
      	var obj = jsonStore.getValue(myObject,"lazyLoadedObject");
      The object would automatically be requested from the server (with an object id of "obj2").

      kwArgs.incrementalUpdates
      For items that have been updated, if this is enabled, the server will be sent a POST request
      with a JSON object containing the changed properties. By default this is
      not enabled, and a PUT is used to deliver an update, and will include a full
      serialization of all the properties of the item/object.
      If this is true, the POST request body will consist of a JSON object with
      only the changed properties. The incrementalUpdates parameter may also
      be a function, in which case it will be called with the updated and previous objects
      and an object update representation can be returned.
      
      kwArgs.alwaysPostNewItems
      If this is true, new items will always be sent with a POST request. By default
      this is not enabled, and the JsonRestStore will send a POST request if
      the item does not include its identifier (expecting server assigned location/
      identifier), and will send a PUT request if the item does include its identifier
      (the PUT will be sent to the URI corresponding to the provided identifier).

         //  JsonRestStore is a Dojo Data store interface to JSON HTTP/REST web
         //  storage services that support read and write through GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE.
         // options:
         //   Keyword arguments
         //
         // The *schema* parameter
         //  This is a schema object for this store. This should be JSON Schema format.
         //
         // The *service* parameter
         //   This is the service object that is used to retrieve lazy data and save results
         //   The function should be directly callable with a single parameter of an object id to be loaded
         //   The function should also have the following methods:
         //    put(id,value) - puts the value at the given id
         //    post(id,value) - posts (appends) the value at the given id
         //    delete(id) - deletes the value corresponding to the given id
         //  Note that it is critical that the service parses responses as JSON.
         //  If you are using dojox.rpc.Service, the easiest way to make sure this
         //   happens is to make the responses have a content type of
         //   application/json. If you are creating your own service, make sure you
         //  use handleAs: "json" with your XHR requests.
         //
         // The *target* parameter
         //   This is the target URL for this Service store. This may be used in place
         //   of a service parameter to connect directly to RESTful URL without
         //   using a dojox.rpc.Service object.
         //
         // The *idAttribute* parameter
         //  Defaults to 'id'. The name of the attribute that holds an objects id.
         //  This can be a preexisting id provided by the server.
         //  If an ID isn't already provided when an object
         //  is fetched or added to the store, the autoIdentity system
         //  will generate an id for it and add it to the index.
         //
         // The *syncMode* parameter
         //  Setting this to true will set the store to using synchronous calls by default.
         //  Sync calls return their data immediately from the calling function, so
         //  callbacks are unnecessary
         //
         // description:
         //  The JsonRestStore will cause all saved modifications to be sent to the server using Rest commands (PUT, POST, or DELETE).
         //   When using a Rest store on a public network, it is important to implement proper security measures to
         //  control access to resources.
         //  On the server side implementing a REST interface means providing GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE handlers.
         //  GET - Retrieve an object or array/result set, this can be by id (like /table/1) or with a
         //    query (like /table/?name=foo).
         //  PUT - This should modify a object, the URL will correspond to the id (like /table/1), and the body will
         //    provide the modified object
         //  POST - This should create a new object. The URL will correspond to the target store (like /table/)
         //    and the body should be the properties of the new object. The server's response should include a
         //    Location header that indicates the id of the newly created object. This id will be used for subsequent
         //    PUT and DELETE requests. JsonRestStore also includes a Content-Location header that indicates
         //   the temporary randomly generated id used by client, and this location is used for subsequent
         //    PUT/DELETEs if no Location header is provided by the server or if a modification is sent prior
         //    to receiving a response from the server.
         //   DELETE - This should delete an object by id.
         //   These articles include more detailed information on using the JsonRestStore:
         //  http://www.sitepen.com/blog/2008/06/13/restful-json-dojo-data/
         //  http://blog.medryx.org/2008/07/24/jsonreststore-overview/
         //
         // example:
         //   A JsonRestStore takes a REST service or a URL and uses it the remote communication for a
         //   read/write dojo.data implementation. A JsonRestStore can be created with a simple URL like:
         //  | new JsonRestStore({target:"/MyData/"});
         // example:
         //   To use a JsonRestStore with a service, you should create a
         //   service with a REST transport. This can be configured with an SMD:
         // | {
         // |  services: {
         // |   jsonRestStore: {
         // |    transport: "REST",
         // |    envelope: "URL",
         // |    target: "store.php",
         // |    contentType:"application/json",
         // |    parameters: [
         // |     {name: "location", type: "string", optional: true}
         // |    ]
         // |   }
         // |  }
         // | }
         //   The SMD can then be used to create service, and the service can be passed to a JsonRestStore. For example:
         // | var myServices = new dojox.rpc.Service(dojo.moduleUrl("dojox.rpc.tests.resources", "test.smd"));
         // | var jsonStore = new dojox.data.JsonRestStore({service:myServices.jsonRestStore});
         // example:
         //  The JsonRestStore also supports lazy loading. References can be made to objects that have not been loaded.
         //  For example if a service returned:
         // | {"name":"Example","lazyLoadedObject":{"$ref":"obj2"}}
         //   And this object has accessed using the dojo.data API:
         // | var obj = jsonStore.getValue(myObject,"lazyLoadedObject");
         //  The object would automatically be requested from the server (with an object id of "obj2").
         //

         //
         // The *schema* parameter
         //  This is a schema object for this store. This should be JSON Schema format.
         //
         // The *service* parameter
         //   This is the service object that is used to retrieve lazy data and save results
         //   The function should be directly callable with a single parameter of an object id to be loaded
         //   The function should also have the following methods:
         //    put(id,value) - puts the value at the given id
         //    post(id,value) - posts (appends) the value at the given id
         //    delete(id) - deletes the value corresponding to the given id
         //  Note that it is critical that the service parses responses as JSON.
         //  If you are using dojox.rpc.Service, the easiest way to make sure this
         //   happens is to make the responses have a content type of
         //   application/json. If you are creating your own service, make sure you
         //  use handleAs: "json" with your XHR requests.
         //
         // The *target* parameter
         //   This is the target URL for this Service store. This may be used in place
         //   of a service parameter to connect directly to RESTful URL without
         //   using a dojox.rpc.Service object.
         //
         // The *idAttribute* parameter
         //  Defaults to 'id'. The name of the attribute that holds an objects id.
         //  This can be a preexisting id provided by the server.
         //  If an ID isn't already provided when an object
         //  is fetched or added to the store, the autoIdentity system
         //  will generate an id for it and add it to the index.
         //
         // The *syncMode* parameter
         //  Setting this to true will set the store to using synchronous calls by default.
         //  Sync calls return their data immediately from the calling function, so
         //  callbacks are unnecessary
         //
         // description:
         //  The JsonRestStore will cause all saved modifications to be sent to the server using Rest commands (PUT, POST, or DELETE).
         //   When using a Rest store on a public network, it is important to implement proper security measures to
         //  control access to resources.
         //  On the server side implementing a REST interface means providing GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE handlers.
         //  GET - Retrieve an object or array/result set, this can be by id (like /table/1) or with a
         //    query (like /table/?name=foo).
         //  PUT - This should modify a object, the URL will correspond to the id (like /table/1), and the body will
         //    provide the modified object
         //  POST - This should create a new object. The URL will correspond to the target store (like /table/)
         //    and the body should be the properties of the new object. The server's response should include a
         //    Location header that indicates the id of the newly created object. This id will be used for subsequent
         //    PUT and DELETE requests. JsonRestStore also includes a Content-Location header that indicates
         //   the temporary randomly generated id used by client, and this location is used for subsequent
         //    PUT/DELETEs if no Location header is provided by the server or if a modification is sent prior
         //    to receiving a response from the server.
         //   DELETE - This should delete an object by id.
         //   These articles include more detailed information on using the JsonRestStore:
         //  http://www.sitepen.com/blog/2008/06/13/restful-json-dojo-data/
         //  http://blog.medryx.org/2008/07/24/jsonreststore-overview/
         //
         // example:
         //   A JsonRestStore takes a REST service or a URL and uses it the remote communication for a
         //   read/write dojo.data implementation. A JsonRestStore can be created with a simple URL like:
         //  | new JsonRestStore({target:"/MyData/"});
         // example:
         //   To use a JsonRestStore with a service, you should create a
         //   service with a REST transport. This can be configured with an SMD:
         // | {
         // |  services: {
         // |   jsonRestStore: {
         // |    transport: "REST",
         // |    envelope: "URL",
         // |    target: "store.php",
         // |    contentType:"application/json",
         // |    parameters: [
         // |     {name: "location", type: "string", optional: true}
         // |    ]
         // |   }
         // |  }
         // | }
         //   The SMD can then be used to create service, and the service can be passed to a JsonRestStore. For example:
         // | var myServices = new dojox.rpc.Service(dojo.moduleUrl("dojox.rpc.tests.resources", "test.smd"));
         // | var jsonStore = new dojox.data.JsonRestStore({service:myServices.jsonRestStore});
         // example:
         //  The JsonRestStore also supports lazy loading. References can be made to objects that have not been loaded.
         //  For example if a service returned:
         // | {"name":"Example","lazyLoadedObject":{"$ref":"obj2"}}
         //   And this object has accessed using the dojo.data API:
         // | var obj = jsonStore.getValue(myObject,"lazyLoadedObject");
         //  The object would automatically be requested from the server (with an object id of "obj2").
         //

         //  If you are using dojox.rpc.Service, the easiest way to make sure this
         //   happens is to make the responses have a content type of
         //   application/json. If you are creating your own service, make sure you
         //  use handleAs: "json" with your XHR requests.
         //
         // The *target* parameter
         //   This is the target URL for this Service store. This may be used in place
         //   of a service parameter to connect directly to RESTful URL without
         //   using a dojox.rpc.Service object.
         //
         // The *idAttribute* parameter
         //  Defaults to 'id'. The name of the attribute that holds an objects id.
         //  This can be a preexisting id provided by the server.
         //  If an ID isn't already provided when an object
         //  is fetched or added to the store, the autoIdentity system
         //  will generate an id for it and add it to the index.
         //
         // The *syncMode* parameter
         //  Setting this to true will set the store to using synchronous calls by default.
         //  Sync calls return their data immediately from the calling function, so
         //  callbacks are unnecessary

         // description:
         //  The JsonRestStore will cause all saved modifications to be sent to the server using Rest commands (PUT, POST, or DELETE).
         //   When using a Rest store on a public network, it is important to implement proper security measures to
         //  control access to resources.
         //  On the server side implementing a REST interface means providing GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE handlers.
         //  GET - Retrieve an object or array/result set, this can be by id (like /table/1) or with a
         //    query (like /table/?name=foo).
         //  PUT - This should modify a object, the URL will correspond to the id (like /table/1), and the body will
         //    provide the modified object
         //  POST - This should create a new object. The URL will correspond to the target store (like /table/)
         //    and the body should be the properties of the new object. The server's response should include a
         //    Location header that indicates the id of the newly created object. This id will be used for subsequent
         //    PUT and DELETE requests. JsonRestStore also includes a Content-Location header that indicates
         //   the temporary randomly generated id used by client, and this location is used for subsequent
         //    PUT/DELETEs if no Location header is provided by the server or if a modification is sent prior
         //    to receiving a response from the server.
         //   DELETE - This should delete an object by id.
         //   These articles include more detailed information on using the JsonRestStore:
         //  http://www.sitepen.com/blog/2008/06/13/restful-json-dojo-data/
         //  http://blog.medryx.org/2008/07/24/jsonreststore-overview/
         //
         // example:
         //   A JsonRestStore takes a REST service or a URL and uses it the remote communication for a
         //   read/write dojo.data implementation. A JsonRestStore can be created with a simple URL like:
         //  | new JsonRestStore({target:"/MyData/"});
         // example:
         //   To use a JsonRestStore with a service, you should create a
         //   service with a REST transport. This can be configured with an SMD:
         // | {
         // |  services: {
         // |   jsonRestStore: {
         // |    transport: "REST",
         // |    envelope: "URL",
         // |    target: "store.php",
         // |    contentType:"application/json",
         // |    parameters: [
         // |     {name: "location", type: "string", optional: true}
         // |    ]
         // |   }
         // |  }
         // | }
         //   The SMD can then be used to create service, and the service can be passed to a JsonRestStore. For example:
         // | var myServices = new dojox.rpc.Service(dojo.moduleUrl("dojox.rpc.tests.resources", "test.smd"));
         // | var jsonStore = new dojox.data.JsonRestStore({service:myServices.jsonRestStore});
         // example:
         //  The JsonRestStore also supports lazy loading. References can be made to objects that have not been loaded.
         //  For example if a service returned:
         // | {"name":"Example","lazyLoadedObject":{"$ref":"obj2"}}
         //   And this object has accessed using the dojo.data API:
         // | var obj = jsonStore.getValue(myObject,"lazyLoadedObject");
         //  The object would automatically be requested from the server (with an object id of "obj2").
         //
