ember-data RESTAdapter pagination and filtering

[kwladyka]

Hi,

In my opinion ember strongly need one additional solution. I talked about that with some people and also looking in the internet. The problem is recurrent.

Table like on that image:

On the top is filter row.

Using http://emberjs.com/guides/models/the-rest-adapter/

Problem nr 1:
Imagine it is table with all users in system. Imagine it is about 100000 users in system. In that case ember have to download all users from server. Unsense. Additional pagination parameter is necessary. If pagination is set to 30 rows it will download only 30 rows user then. If user click other page, it will donwload other 30 rows. So i propose add parametter pagination to Find All DS.RESTAdapter. It can be solve in other way ofcourse. The most important is solution.

Problem nr 2:
Because of pagination If user fill filter field with some value it has to send query to server and download new data. It also need soltion.

Problem nr 3:
When user multiselect rows and click action "change status to blocked" selected rows have to read, query send and table refresh. I guess the best soltuion for that is code that in jquery,

I am not sure what is the best technical way in ember to solve that. I only know it is really important. Without that i cant really use ember to advenced software coding.

Unfortunately, pagination adds more complexity than one might think at first. What if a record is deleted on the server or a new one is added that affects the already loaded pages? I definitely understand the interest here, but I'd love to see someone start a discussion on the forums so we can consider all the different cases we need to address. Once we have a proposal we're happy with we can reopen the issue here.

I wonder if #1517 needs more support behind it around this. Is this the same issue? i think so.
