angular-data
Inspired by Ember Data, Angular-data is the model layer Angular is missing. It consists of a convenient in-memory cache for managing your data, and several adapters for communicating with various persistence layers.
By default angular-data uses the http adapter–perfect for communicating with your RESTful backend. It includes a localStorage adapter, and another localforage adapter is also available. More adapters are coming, and you're free to implement your own.
Unlike Backbone and Ember Models, angular-data does not require the use of getters and setters, and doesn't wrap your data with custom classes if you don't want it to. Angular-data's internal dirty-checking (via observe-js or Object.observe
in supporting browsers) allows for powerful use cases and an easy avenue for implementing your own 3-way data-binding.
Supporting relations, computed properties, model lifecycle control and a slew of other features, angular-data is the tool for giving your data the respect it deserves.
Latest Release: 1.0.0-rc.2-1
master: 1.0.0-rc.2-1
Angular-data is in a 1.0.0 Beta. The API is rather stable and angular-data is well tested.
Although angular-data is being used in production, it's not fully 1.0.0. If you want to use Angular-data, keep an eye on the changelog. 1.0.0 will introduce strict semver (until then, minor number is bumped for breaking changes).
