javascript - Fetch issues in backbone collection with id -

following json:

[ { "id" : "1", "type" : "report" }, { "id" : "2", "type" : "report" }, { "id" : "1", "type" : "email" }, ]

consider, json returned backbone collection -> service call. now, when i'm using json response render html table using backbone view , handlebars template system. 2 rows gets displayed, instead there should 3 rows.

note: collection parse response returning right json (i.e. 3 rows). when overwrite id using collection parse unique random generated number 3 rows displayed. not ok, because don't want alter id.

i want row displayed following:

1 reports 2 reports 1 email

from documentation collection add,

note adding same model (a model same id) collection more 1 time no-op.

while cannot see reason why 2 different objects should have same id, may have valid reason. 1 suggestion add together property each object in json response, _dummyid , set autoincrementing value server side. on client side, in model definition code, set idattribute _dummyid.

json response,

[ { "id" : "1", "_dummyid": "1", "type" : "report" }, { "id" : "2", "_dummyid": "2", "type" : "report" }, { "id" : "1", "_dummyid": "3", "type" : "email" }, ]

your model definition, from http://backbonejs.org/#model-idattribute,

var meal = backbone.model.extend({ idattribute: "_dummyid" });

that said, hope there elegant setting in backbone, makes backbone collection acts list instead of set.
