Collection Lifecycle Callbacks

Collections support callbacks that you can define when creating classes.

For example:

var Promise = f.Promise;

var Posts = f.createCollection({
  alias: 'Post',

  beforeSave: function (model) {
    // do something before saving...

    // end the callback with a promise
    return new Promise.resolve(true);
  }
});

modelInitialize(model)

Called right after Collection's Model construction.

For synchronous operations only, since it does not return any Promise.

beforeSave(model)

Should return a Promise with true to continue.

To stop the save, return a Promise with an error.

afterSave(model)

beforeValidate(model)

Should return a Promise with true to continue.

To stop the validation, return a Promise with an error.

afterValidate(model)

Should return a Promise.

beforeDelete(model)

Should return a Promise with true to continue.

To stop from deleting, return a Promise with an error.
