It is impossible to create a new resource when providing a client-generated ID
- When I'm POSTing a new instance, the service I'm consuming checks if an ID is provided with the request.
- If not it will generate an ID. If however I'm providing an ID, the service will use it as long as it is unique.
The request body with an ID should look like this:
{ "data": { "id": "my-own-id", "type": "atype", "attributes": { "foo": "bar" } } }
- When sending this request through Postman, the result is status 200.
- However, when using ngx-jsonapi, the service returns status 400.
I have experienced the same issue.
The problem is that ngx-jsonapi is adding the id also to the url if it is present in the data. The url
should be http://SERVER/api/atype
instead of http://SERVER/api/atype/my-own-id
.
The bug is only the URL modification? Or you detect another bug?

My bad - I had actually detected the URL issue, too, but forgot to mention it in the bug description. It looks like that is the actual bug. Otherwise, the function is behaving as expected.
