Tutorial on how to use Base collection for Backbone

Backbone_Base_Collection.md

Creating Collections becomes much easier with the Base Collection.

In this example I will walk through some of the default conventions and requirements for creating such a collection.

collection.js

to create a base extended collection, just extend base
(function (Collections) {
  Collections.EmailAddresses = Collections.Base.extend({
    model: Application.Models.Email,
  });
})(Application.Collections);

validations.js.coffee

#base collections get the validate method, which will validate each of the models
  validate: -> @each (model) -> model.validate?()

#if a collection is within a nested model this means that it will return the validation errors of each of its own models when 
#validate is called on the collection
