Nested dirtyness

I didn’t see any example of keeping track of nested levels of “dirtyness”, so I assume this feature either isn’t implemented or the user is supposed to use another approach for it.

Example: If I update a project’s name, and projects is a hasMany relationship on user, I’d like user.get('isDirty') to return true.

Is this possible? How would you recommend tackling this problem?

The immediate solution that comes to mind would be

// models/user.js
// ...
isDeepDirty: computed('[e-mail]', function() {
  return this.get('projects').any((p) => p.get('isDirty'));
})

And you would probably need to call startTrack() on all projects? This also creates a separate computed property. Just wondering if anyone has an alternative approach they could share.

Ok … good to know @alexander-alvarez … I think I can get to this in a few weeks ( be more free then ), but would want to discuss it with someone, work on it together perhaps ?, let me know if you interested

Dropping in to say this I would find use for this too 👍 For the time being I did a simple concat of the current models isDirty and that of the relationships.

I have top level models for which I “deep save”, so the “deep is dirty” is nice corollary
