Bear10: "No frameworks is better than using ember or angular" :D

jakkor does have angular some data layer?

to connect to a REST API, or you have to do the ajax calls by hand?

Fettuccini: didn't use it that much, but I was just quoting what I heard in one of my jobs some time ago.

jakkor ok, I was just lazy to google it

but i think it has to have one

what's the latest status on fastboot btw?

hehe don't worry, this is the first time that I ask sometimes for something instead of just spending 15 hours or more to figure this out :)

Trying implement a selectbox... https://gist.github.com/Criten/cb0c886ab0deb4f4...

trying to use this example https://gist.github.com/ef4/8367f996eb7b57d1f7a5

and i dont think the ember-truth-helpers is working for me...

but if i print out both of those values (as you can see in my first gist) i'm getting the correct values

hmm i think im having trouble trying to figure this out

if i'm observing or have a property dependent on 'propertyA', but i need it to function differently depending on how propertyA is set (if i do a this.set('propertyA') i want it to behave one way but if htmlbinding from the dropdown changes the value i want it to do something else) how can i go about this?

well what does your dropdown change

you need a way to detect what changes it?

Criten, it changes a value basically, they're just a range of numbers, 1000 2000 etc

let me see if i can get a jsbin for you

Whew! fixed my problem

Any tips on using local storage & rest adapter side by side? Where do I define which model uses which adapter?

Criten, sorry http://emberjs.jsbin.com/qiwefukeda/1/edit?html... better

why do you want other logic to run?.... you could use another internal variable

for hte .set

eh.. but the selectedItemChange will still run

right

do you basically want to change it without doing the *2

the thing is selectedItemTwo loads with defaults UNLESS specified

if i specify it, i want my value not the default

hmm

ok

so dont observe selectedItem

have a onChange on the dropdown

that does the * 2 logic

i was looking on how to have the onChange on the dropdown, if i can find that i could probably control everything through a boolean

but i couldn't find it, on SO people recommended looking at the property

well first off

are you/ can you get on ember 1.13?

mm i'm on 1.12 id say

i'd recomend stop using the dumb view 'select'

yep 1.12, but i'm worried about addons breaking

hmm

you could try this

keep the logic for the primary item the same

but you could call selectedItemChanged explicitly for changing manually

with attributes that you pass in

and if that value is set, do logic A if it isn't do logic B

ohh that's an interesting approach

but... you will still have to set() primary item again

which will cause the observer to fire

lol

lol

yeah it's a tough one

well it's kidna weird

that you wanna do different logic...

hmm

i'd say

have the dropdown change a different variable

idk what your use case is

but call the variable that the primary item is

selectedItem

well wait....

you probably want to update primary item

once it changes manually

in the dropdown

(the selectedo ne)

one*
