Is withParameters still supported in Breeze entity query?

I tried to use withParameters method on query like that: 

query.withParameters({ includeLocation: true })

Unfortunately my parameter was not added to url. I use breeze.debug.js and I've found this line in it 

//queryOptions = __extend(queryOptions, this.parameters);

Is that a bug ? Is withParameters support taken out ? Or do I do something wrong ?

I use oData

Solution

  • When .withParameters is used, the parameters are added to the URL by the data service adapter, not by the Breeze core. That's why that line is commented out. This allows the parameters to be encoded differently, depending upon the backend that is used.

    That's great, but the data service adapter for OData that ships with Breeze 1.4.8 does not handle .withParameters. The WebApi adapter does, but not the OData adapter. We'll make sure it's added in a future release. In the meantime, you can continue to use your workaround.

    This oversight/omission is partly because we don't know any OData services that handle custom parameters. If I may ask, what OData service are you using?
