Data source Edit on GitHub

As an alternative to creating handlers for each specific resource type it is also possible to implement an IPomonaDataSource.

A data source will be used when registered for in the IoC container.

IPomonaDataSource has the methods Patch<T>, Post<T> and Query<T>, where T is the resource type for the current request.

    internal class SimpleDataSource : IPomonaDataSource
    {
        private static readonly IList<SimpleExtraData> repository = new List<SimpleExtraData>()
        {
            new SimpleExtraData { Id = 0, TheString = "What" },
            new SimpleExtraData { Id = 1, TheString = "The" },
            new SimpleExtraData { Id = 2, TheString = "BLEEP" }
        };


        public object Patch<T>(T updatedObject) where T : class
        {
            var simpleData = updatedObject as SimpleExtraData;
            repository[simpleData.Id] = simpleData;
            return simpleData;
        }


        public object Post<T>(T newObject) where T : class
        {
            var simpleData = newObject as SimpleExtraData;
            simpleData.Id = repository.Count;
            repository.Add(simpleData);
            return simpleData;
        }


        public IQueryable<T> Query<T>() where T : class
        {
            return repository.Cast<T>().AsQueryable();
        }
    }
