Cannot get back the full object from the relational field after saving an object

[carmenlau]

We set a complete object to object's relation field, but there is only id leave after saving. Following is the testing code and the output comparison between parse.com and parse-server.

The testing cloud code:

Parse.Cloud.define("testQuery", function(request, response) {
  var objectQuery = new Parse.Query(ObjectClass);
  var Object;

  objectQuery.include('user');
  objectQuery
  .get("_<object_id>_", {useMasterKey: true})
  .then(function(_object) {
    object = _object;
    object.set('user', request.user);
    console.log("1 ======> " + JSON.stringify(object.get("user")));
    console.log("1 ======> " + object.get("user").getUsername());
    return object.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});
  })
  .then(function() {
    console.log("2 ======> " + JSON.stringify(object.get("user")));
    console.log("2 ======> " + object.get("user").getUsername());
    response.success("");
  }, function(error) {
    response.error(error);
  });
});

console log of parse.com:
1 ======> {< full user object >}
1 ======> username
2 ======> {< full user object >}
2 ======> username

console log of parse-server:
1 ======> {< full user object >}
1 ======> username
2 ======> {"objectId":"< user id >"}
2 ======> undefined

Which of the two outputs is cloud code, and which is from parse-server? You wrote parse.com twice :)

[andrewimm]

Also, please provide which version of the Parse SDK you are using (console.log(Parse.CoreManager.get('VERSION')))

[carmenlau]

@andrewimm sorry for confusion! I just updated my comment :P

The first one is parse.com and second one is parse-server

The parse SDK version is js1.8.1

[andrewimm]

Very peculiar. Saving the object shouldn't have side effects on its children. I'll investigate this

Parse.Cloud.define("testQuery", function(request, response) {
  var objectQuery = new Parse.Query(ObjectClass);
  var Object; // <-- upperCase `O` and a reserved Javascript constructor

  objectQuery.include('user');
  objectQuery
  .get("_<object_id>_", {useMasterKey: true})
  .then(function(_object) {
    object = _object; // <-- lowerCase `o` and a leaked global since it´s not declared with var
    object.set('user', request.user);
    console.log("1 ======> " + JSON.stringify(object.get("user")));
    console.log("1 ======> " + object.get("user").getUsername());
    return object.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});
  })
  .then(function() {
    console.log("2 ======> " + JSON.stringify(object.get("user")));
    console.log("2 ======> " + object.get("user").getUsername());
    response.success("");
  }, function(error) {
    response.error(error);
  });
});

I'm guessing your parse server configuration isn't injecting globals even though Parse.com probably does. Try to run this code with 'use strict';

[airdrummingfool]

@carmenlau do you have a beforeSave function defined for the ObjectClass class? And what Parse.com SDK version did you use to run the test cloud code?
