Hi,
<div>While I was playing with scaffolding and tried to build a
simple Blog Application with Aerogear I faced the current
situation :</div>
<div>I have a <b>Post</b> object which contains many <b>Comment</b>
objects. Now I want to call my Post pipe to retrieve the
related comments, I have currently 2 options :</div>
<div><b><br>
</b></div>
<div><b>/posts/1</b> -> assuming comments will be
implicitly retrieved (eager loading)</div>
<div><b>/comments/?postid=1</b></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But regarding our model the correct form should be : </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>/posts/1/comments</b></div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>+1 </div>
<div>that is the ideal way to model URIs for "nested" resources.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>See [1], extracted from [2]</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> </div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0
.8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div><b><br>
</b></div>
<div>But, AFAIK, with the current API, it is not possible to
define this last pattern (at least for JS and iOs,
confirmed by Matzew). When doing a <b>read </b>we can pass
an <b>id </b>option but as mentioned in the doc, this id
will always be append to the endpoint.</div>

<div><br>

</div>
<div>Well, it is possible - but in a very (IMO) ugly way:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://gist.github.com/matzew/6ab432e437b9a017a21d">https://gist.github.com/matzew/6ab432e437b9a017a21d</a></div>

<div> </div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0
.8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div><br>
</div>
<div>IMO, we should be able to support this pattern but for
now I'm not really sure how to specify this in our API, so
if you have any ideas feedback this thread has been made for
you ! </div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Suggestion: Enhance the read function - example:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://gist.github.com/matzew/04f069dfbed2cc77a8b4">https://gist.github.com/matzew/04f069dfbed2cc77a8b4</a></div>
</div>

I'm thinking of the inverse myself. Add a "ParentPath" property
which can be used to extract information from parent objects.<br>
