Patch multiple objects

[glebmikulko]

I am wondering how can I patch multiple objects? In what format should I pass modified data?

[glebmikulko]

For example, I have multiple settings and want to patch them on a backend server. I tried to do the following:

kitsu.patch('setting', {
      id: '1,2,3,4,5,6,7',
      data: { id: '1,2,3,4,5,6,7', settings: outer_variable },
    })

but got wrong nesting structure on the backend:

 {"type"=>"setting",
   "id"=>"1,2,3,4,5,6,7",
   "relationships"=>
    {"data"=>
      {"data"=>
        {"id"=>"1,2,3,4,5,6,7",
         "settings"=>
          [{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>1, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"2", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>2, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"3", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>3, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"4", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>4, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"5", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>5, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"6", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>6, "time"=>900},
           {"id"=>"7", "type"=>"setting", "store"=>{"id"=>"1", "type"=>"store"}, "weekDay"=>7, "time"=>900}],
         "type"=>"data"}}}}

(double data nesting in realtionships)

Hey, sorry I was busy with university work and this issue fell through the gaps while I only briefly checked GitHub to merge automated dependency updates.

I don't think this is currently possible with this package.

I've checked the JSON:API 1.0 specification documentation and can't find anything on it, so it's possibly a behaviour other JSON:API server/client implementations have added on top of the specification?

Seems like it's true. It's an experimental feature at the moment. It's a pity

Bulk Extension support for PATCH and POST added in 920ece3

Bulk Extension support for DELETE added in f793988.

Syntax for PATCH and POST are the same as with objects, just wrapped in an array:

api.post('users', [ 
	{ name: 'wopian' },
	{ name: 'glebmikulko' } 
])
api.patch('users', [ 
	{ id: '1', name: 'wopian' },
	{ id: '2', name: 'glebmikulko' } 
])

Syntax for DELETE is simply:

api.delete('users', [ 1, 2 ])
