Backbone.js Simple way to clean Model
While working on a Backbone.js web app had to solve a small problem. Once you add some custom data to the model like this.model.fetch{data:{action: options}} attribute data will be added to the model. To get the model to it’s defaults you have two options will need to do .
First Option
this.model.unset(data); //where data is the key
Second Options would be to write a model function to do it.
clean:function(){
for(a in this.attributes){
if(!(a in this.defaults)){
this.unset(a);
}
}
}},
With this option I don’t have to remember what custom attributes where added to the model.
Hope that helps!
