Multiple DataSource Models?

[Steven]

In your documentation I see references to Models (plural) and the function get(), but I don't see any examples of dealing with multiple models.

So, is it possible to define multiple models for a given datasource?

More importantly, can the models be bound to a property within the schema?

i.e.

If the schema has two arrays:

{ Data :
    {
        Items: [ { ... } ],
        Persons: [ { ... } ]
    }
}

Such that Schema is bound to Data, model 1 is bound to Items, and model 2 is bound to Persons.

If this is possible, could someone post an example of how to do this?

Hi Steven,

This functionality is not supported by the dataSource component. It is possible to define only one model per dataSource instance.

Might be a good feature request?  ;-)

This way you could hit a complex data source without having to write all kinds of parse code.

Hi Steven,

Actually there is already a similar idea (that includes multiple models support) logged in our user voice page. Please check it and if you wish cast a vote for it. If it gather more votes we will rise its priority.
