Question

I have my View:

var TryView = Backbone.View.extend({

initialize: function(){
    this.render();
},

render: function(){

    var test = this.collection.get(0);
    this.collection.each(function(model){
    document.write(model.id+"<br>");
    });
}

});

and the order to create it with some existing (working) collection.

var testView = new TryView({collection: test.TestCollection});

but i get the error:

Object function (){ parent.apply(this, arguments); } has no method ‘get’

and the same with fetch

Answer 1

You’re trying to call get on the ‘class’ test.TestCollection. When you do this

var testView = new TryView({collection: test.TestCollection});

you give the TestCollection ‘class’ (there are really no classes in js, just functions) as the collection -attribute to the View. You have to give an instance of TestCollection

var testCollection = new test.TestCollection();
var testView = new TryView({collection: testCollection});

Hope this helps!
