Documentation on creating a Breeze.js DataAdapter - breeze

Question

I'm trying to get Breeze.js talking to sharepoint. Does anyone know of any documentation on how to create a custom Breeze.js DataAdapter?

Answer 1

We are hoping to have some more guidance and documentation regarding connecting Breeze with Sharepoint endpoints within the next month or so. This work is currently in progress. So please stay tuned.

Answer 2

You can have breeze talk to sharepoint via oData. You need datajs to add oData support to breeze and note the call to breeze.config.initializeAdapterInstances({ dataService: "OData" });. See below.
<script src="scripts/jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/knockout-2.3.0.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/q.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/datajs-1.1.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/breeze.debug.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/jquery-ui-1.9.1.custom.min.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/koGrid-2.1.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var my = {}; //my namespace
$(function () {
var serverAddress = "../_vti_bin/listdata.svc/";
breeze.config.initializeAdapterInstances({ dataService: "OData" });
var manager = new breeze.EntityManager(serverAddress);
my.vm = {
customers: ko.observableArray([]),
load: function () {
var query = breeze.EntityQuery.from("YourSPListHere").take(15);
manager.executeQuery(query, function (data) {
var results = data.results;
my.vm.customers(results);
});
}
}
my.vm.load();
ko.applyBindings(my.vm);
});
</script>
