maxbrunsfeld / backbone_super.js
Created December 30, 2011 23:58
A 'super' method for backbone.js (plain javascript)
// This method gives you an easier way of calling super
// when you're using Backbone in plain javascript.
// It lets you avoid writing the constructor's name multiple
// times. You still have to specify the name of the method.
//
// So instead of having to write:
//
// User = Backbone.Model.extend({
// save: function(attrs) {
// this.beforeSave(attrs);
