Coffeescript Problems

[jkarmel]

Hey guys,

First off, this library is totally awesome and also badly needed in the angular community. I'm incredibly happy to see it!

Secondly, I have the following coffeescript model:

angular.module('models').
factory 'Account', [\
"ActiveResource"
(ActiveResource) ->
  Account = (data) ->
    @number 'id'
    @string 'phone_number'

    @hasMany 'orders'

  Account.inherits ActiveResource.Base
  Account.api.set('/accounts').format 'json'
  Account
]

Part of the code that makes associations work in your library fails because Account.name returns "" instead of "Account". I can use the class keyword to get the right behavior but that won't survive minification. (I think)

Can you guys support a .className property that gets set explicitly?

For reference here is an example using the name property in your code:

function nameOfBelongsToModel(model) {
  if (!model)
    return;
  if (!model.klass && !model.name)
    return;
  if (!model.klass)
    return model.name.camelize();
  return model.klass.name.camelize();
}

Oh also, you probably know this but a function's .name property is readonly, so I can't just override that.

I just submitted a pull request that may help you out. IE doesn't support the Function.name property and thus why your code is failing. Take a look at my pull request and see if that doesn't help you out.

Good luck
