I dont't know exactly where the error/s is/are.
I'm doing a Single Page App, this is the context:
- I have a resource controller in Laravel that watch this route "domain.dev/v1/"
- Laravel serves the first page/view "/public/views/layouts/application.blade.php"
- Mustache views are stored under "public/views/" and they are loaded synchronously when they are called by the Backbone Router (I've modified the "app/config/view.php" file to serve the views from bakcbone)
- In backbone, the Router controls every URI change, even pushstate and the respective Mustache views. Everything seems to work fine, but if you type the direct URI for a user o list or users...you only see JSON returned by the server, not the corresponding Backbone View, in other words, I dont know Which is not doing the correct work, the Laravel Router or the Backbone Router. Or is it a Laravel configuration?
This is my code so far:
// app/routes.php
Route::group(['prefix' => 'v1'],function (){
Route::resource('users','V1\UsersController');
Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('layouts.application')->nest('content', 'app');
});
});
// app/controllers/V1/UsersController.php
namespace V1;
//import classes that are not in this new namespace
use BaseController;
use User;
use View;
use Input;
use Request;
class UsersController extends \BaseController {
public function index()
{
return $users = User::all(['id','email','name']) ;
}
public function show($id)
{
$user = User::find($id,['id','email','name']);
if(is_null($user)){
return array(
'id' => 0,
'email' => 'fake email'
);
}
return $user;
}
// public/js/namespaces.js
(function(){
window.App = {
Models : {},
Collections : {},
Views : {},
Router : {}
};
window.Templator = function (mustacheView){
return $.ajax({
url: '/views/'+mustacheView,
async : false,
type: 'GET',
}).responseText;
};
window.Vent = _.extend({},Backbone.Events);
})();
// public/js/backbone/router.js
App.Router = Backbone.Router.extend({
routes : {
'' : 'home',
'users' : 'showAll',
'users/:id' : 'showUser',
'login' : 'showLoginForm'
},
home: function (){
Vent.trigger('home:index');
},
showAll : function (){
Vent.trigger('users:showAll');
},
showUser: function (id){
Vent.trigger('users:show',id);
},
showLoginForm : function (){
Vent.trigger('login:form');
}
});
// public/js/app.js
$(function() {
$(document).on("click", "a", function(e){
var href = $(this).attr("href");
if (href != '#') {
e.preventDefault();
Backbone.history.navigate(href,{trigger:true});
}
});
new App.Views.AllUsers;
new App.Views.Index;
new App.Views.Login;
new App.Router;
Backbone.history.start({
pushState: true,
silent: true,
root: '/v1'
});
});
So, if I type this URI "domain.dev/v1/users" on the nav bar, shows list of users in JSON and the view associated in backbone is not displayed. Any suggestions?
