getCollection<T extends ResModel> method

Future<Iterable<T>> getCollection<T extends ResModel>(String rid, T modelFactory())

One-off get on a collection, returning its models.

Unlike subscribeToCollection, this does not subscribe or track state; models receive no change events.

Implementation

Future<Iterable<T>> getCollection<T extends ResModel>(
  String rid,
  T Function() modelFactory,
) async {
  var id = await send("get", rid, null);
  var json = await receive(id);
  var result = json["result"] as Map<String, dynamic>;

  return [
    for (var item in result["collections"][rid] as Iterable)
      modelFactory()
        ..updateFromJson(
          result["models"][item["rid"]] as Map<String, dynamic>,
        ),
  ];
}
