Extending InMemorDataService #219

This may be a HowTo rather than an issue.

The company I am working for doesn't follow a restful pattern e.g. api/courses/abc doesn't return a course... it actually returns a wrapped object with a course inside

This is along the lines of {"operationSucceeded": true, "data": data, "notifications": []}

This causes an error as the item can't be found in the collection (because the collection is a level down)

e.g. collection.data rather than collection

Ok. So I have extended the service and used the get(reqInfo: RequestInfo) {} method

I have set const collection = reqInfo.collection.data;

It then finds the object correctly but I need to wrap this back up in the same object format. So i do

const options: ResponseOptions = data ?
{
body: {"operationSucceeded": true, "data": data, "notifications": []},
status: STATUS.OK
} :
{
body: { error: 'id='${id}' not found },
status: STATUS.NOT_FOUND
};

(As shown in your hero-in-mem-data-override.service.ts)

The built options look ok but my http subscription callback blows up with the following

"TypeError: You provided an invalid object where a stream was expected. You can provide an Observable, Promise, Array, or Iterable"

Do you have any advice? Am I creating the body wrong?
