an Ext.data.Store and a server-side framework. A Writer enabled Store will
automatically manage the Ajax requests to perform CRUD actions on a Store.</p>
<p>Ext.data.DataWriter is an abstract base class which is intended to be extended
and should not be created directly. For existing implementations, see
<a href="output/Ext.data.JsonWriter.html" ext:cls="Ext.data.JsonWriter">Ext.data.JsonWriter</a>.</p>
<p>Creating a writer is simple:</p>
-<pre><code><b>var</b> writer = <b>new</b> Ext.data.JsonWriter();</code></pre>
+<pre><code><b>var</b> writer = <b>new</b> Ext.data.JsonWriter({
+ encode: false <i>// <--- false causes data to be printed to jsonData config-property of Ext.Ajax#reqeust</i>
+});</code></pre>
+<p>Same old JsonReader as Ext-2.x:</p>
+<pre><code><b>var</b> reader = <b>new</b> Ext.data.JsonReader({idProperty: <em>'id'</em>}, [{name: <em>'first'</em>}, {name: <em>'last'</em>}, {name: <em>'email'</em>}]);</code></pre>
<p>The proxy for a writer enabled store can be configured with a simple <code>url</code>:</p>
<pre><code><i>// Create a standard HttpProxy instance.</i>
<b>var</b> proxy = <b>new</b> Ext.data.HttpProxy({
- url: <em>'app.php/users'</em>
+ url: <em>'app.php/users'</em> <i>// <--- Supports <em>"provides"</em>-type urls, such as <em>'/users.json'</em>, <em>'/products.xml'</em> (Hello Rails/Merb)</i>
});</code></pre>
-<p>For finer grained control, the proxy may also be configured with an <code>api</code>:</p>
-<pre><code><i>// Use the api specification</i>
+<p>For finer grained control, the proxy may also be configured with an <code>API</code>:</p>
+<pre><code><i>// Maximum flexibility <b>with</b> the API-configuration</i>
<b>var</b> proxy = <b>new</b> Ext.data.HttpProxy({
api: {
read : <em>'app.php/users/read'</em>,
create : <em>'app.php/users/create'</em>,
update : <em>'app.php/users/update'</em>,
- destroy : <em>'app.php/users/destroy'</em>
+ destroy : { <i>// <--- Supports object-syntax as well</i>
+ url: <em>'app.php/users/destroy'</em>,
+ method: <em>"DELETE"</em>
+ }
}
});</code></pre>

+<p>Pulling it all together into a Writer-enabled Store:</p>
<pre><code><b>var</b> store = <b>new</b> Ext.data.Store({
