Client-generated id? #368
Description
I've looked through the old issues on this topic and haven't found help, so hoping I can get some clarity.
I am trying to create a resource called MoodleUser. This has an id that needs to match the ID from another system. I was under the impression from the docs that I could set the ID for a new MoodleUser in the Adapter using the creating hook, like so:
protected function creating(MoodleUser $moodleUser, $resource): void
{
$moodleUser->{$moodleUser->getRouteKeyName()} = $resource['lmsUserId'];
}
Using Ember.js, I send the call like so:
newMoodleUser = this.store.createRecord('moodle-user', {
lmsUserId: lmsUser.id,
institutionId: institution.id,
});
yield newMoodleUser.save();
That gives me a $resource in the creating hook that looks like this:
array (
'type' => 'moodle-users',
'attributes' =>
array (
'lmsUserId' => '199',
'institutionId' => '3',
),
)
Instead of making a new MoodleUser with the id of, say, 199, I get an error that "Id member is an empty string."
I tried some other things, like passing in an id attribute in the createRecord method, but that gave me a 403 error that client-generated ids weren't supported for the moodle-user resource.
I'm not sure what else to try or where else to look for assistance. Any help would be most appreciated!
