#DEPRECATED - Moved into Angular-Point

angular-point-lookup-cache

Service used to create caches for specified lookup fields to eliminate the need to iterate over the entire list to find related items.

Register On Model

  let lookupFieldsToCache = ['project'];

  class ProjectTask{
       constructor(obj) {
           super();
           _.assign(this, obj);

           //Only cache list items saved to server so verify an id is available
           if(this.id) {

               // Store in cached object so we can reference from lookup reference
               apLookupCacheService.cacheEntityByLookupId(this, lookupFieldsToCache);
           }
       }

       //...other methods on constructor class
  }

  export class ProjectTasksModel extends ap.Model {
       constructor($injector: ng.auto.IInjectorService) {

           super({
               factory: ProjectTask,
               getChildren: getChildren,
               list: {
                   // Maps to the offline XML file in dev folder (no spaces)
                   title: 'ProjectTask',
                   /// List GUID can be found in list properties in SharePoint designer
                   environments: {
                       production: '{C72C44A2-DC40-4308-BEFF-3FF418D14022}',
                       test: '{DAD8689C-8B9E-4088-BEC5-9F273CAAE104}'
                   },
                   customFields: [
                       // Array of objects mapping each SharePoint field to a property on a list item object
                       {staticName: 'Title', objectType: 'Text', mappedName: 'title', cols: 3, readOnly: false},
                       {staticName: 'Project', objectType: 'Lookup', mappedName: 'project', readOnly: false}
                       ...
                   ]
               }
           });

           //Expose service to ProjectTask class and we know it's already loaded because it's loaded before
           //project files
           apLookupCacheService = $injector.get('apLookupCacheService');

           //Patch save and delete on class prototype to allow us to cleanup cache before each event
           apLookupCacheService.manageChangeEvents(Muster, lookupFieldsToCache);

       }
       getProjectTasks(projectId: number, asObject: boolean) {
          return lookupCacheService.retrieveLookupCacheById('project', this.list.getListId(), projectId, asObject);
       }

       //...other methods on model

  }

Using Cached Value From Project Object

  /** On the project model **/
  class Project{
       constructor(obj) {
           super();
           _.assign(this, obj);
       }
       /** Project tasks are now directly available from a given project */
       getProjectTasks(asObject = false) {
           return projectTasksModel.getProjectTasks(this.id, asObject);
       }

       //...other methods on constructor class
  }

 //Returns an array containing all project tasks
 var projectTasks = myProject.getProjectTasks();

 //Returns an indexed cache object that hasn't been converted into an array, keys=id and val=list item
 var projectTasks = myProject.getProjectTasks(true);
