backbone.jsHow do I pass a collection to a Backbone.js view?
You can pass a collection to a Backbone.js view by using the collection
property. This property should be set to an instance of a Backbone.Collection.
For example, if you have a collection of books you can pass it to a view like this:
var books = new Backbone.Collection([
{ title: 'Alice in Wonderland' },
{ title: 'The Hobbit' }
]);
var booksView = new Backbone.View({
el: '#books',
collection: books
});
In this example, books
is an instance of a Backbone.Collection and booksView
is an instance of a Backbone.View. The collection
property of the view is set to the books
collection.
You can also pass a collection to a view when creating it, like this:
var booksView = new Backbone.View({
el: '#books',
collection: new Backbone.Collection([
{ title: 'Alice in Wonderland' },
{ title: 'The Hobbit' }
])
});
The view will now have access to the collection via the collection
property.
For more information, see the Backbone.js documentation.
