[Voyage] Accessing ObjectID(_id) when retrieving objects.

sergio_101
Hi, all..

I am working on a Teapot REST interface, and am getting ready to implement the create, read, and update methods for the objects, and I need a way to refer to the objects. I figured that since Voyage was already creating _id through MongoDB, I could just pass that on when I retrieved that object, but I don’t see how to do that.

Is this possible? Would I need to create my own numerical indexes to my objects and just retrieve them as part of the object query?


Thanks!

You can ask every voyage object for its id. Just do 

anObject voyageId

you get an OID object which you can ask for its #value to get the numeric id.

Sure. I don't know if there is a more clever way to do but this will work in any case

MyClass selectOne: {
'_id' -> (OID value: 16r<hex value>) } asDictionary

Got it..

Smalltalk is one language where it ALWAYS seems that there is a more clever way to do anything than the way i am doing it..

I’ll try this..

Thanks!

Don't worry. That is the experience we all had (and have). You look for a method (most probably it exists alreay) but you cannot find because you are not thinking the straight way ;)

Yes.. smalltalk doesn’t impose a whole lot of style limitations on the developer, and most of the code i run into is very high quality.. so, using all the available code, you’re really just learning good practices from a bunch of smart people…

the language is really inconsequential..
