Question

I’m writing a custom sync for Backbone and the name url for the sync isn’t an obvious choice. I’d like to make it something like point so instead of:

MyAppModel = Backbone.Model.extend({
    url: '/some/api'
});

I can use…

MyAppModel = Backbone.Model.extend({
    point: 'some/reference`
});

Is there any way to (without modifying Backbone) make it so url = point?

Answer 1

This should work:
url = function(){return this.point };

But why do you want to ‘rename’ the url property? Just for semantics?
