It's an issue with the asynchronous nature of the fetch
call on your collection
. The data for the collection
has not returned when you show the two views
. If you update the execution part of your code something like the following (untested), you should be on the right tracks:
var API = {
getAbouts: function() {
// Just return the new collection here
return new App.About.Collection();
},
...
}
// Fetch the collection here and show views on success
var abouts = API.getAbouts().fetch({
success: function() {
var aboutsListView = new App.About.ListView({collection: abouts }),
aboutsOverView = new App.About.OverView({collection: abouts});
// Should render collection data now
App.listRegion.show(aboutsListView);
// Should render collection data now
App.mainRegion.show(aboutsOverView);
}
});
