Request: Example Backbone Model/Collection Code about djangbone HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,
It's all pretty open-ended, as you mentioned Backbone is very permissive in how you set up your models. Djangbone doesn't need your backbone models to look a certain way either. So you could do something as simple as the following:

var Widget = Backbone.Model.extend({})
var WidgetCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend{ model: Widget, url: '/your/djangbone/endpoint' }
var c = new WidgetCollection();
c.fetch();

and as long as you have a properly configured BackboneAPIView set up at that endpoint your data should be loaded into the collection.

I ended up basing my code on
http://coenraets.org/blog/2011/12/backbone-js-wine-cellar-tutorial-part-1-getting-started/,
which does a good job of showing basic Backbone usage.

Thanks for this great little library, it was just what I needed - we're now
fully ported off Django Admin thanks to it.

Cool, thanks for your feedback! Glad you like it. I just saw your tweet from last week too– was wondering where all those github watchers came from :^)
