Revert a Model to its Previous Values

Is there any easy way to revert a model to its previously values saved in the database?

Fortunately sugar has made most of our job easier…:)

To revert back a model to its previous values, you can just add the below line to your js code.

model.revertAttributes();

If you want to check whether any of the attributes has changed or not. You can do it by adding the below line.

 

	var changedAttributes = model.changedAttributes(model.getSyncedAttributes());
	if (!_.isEmpty(changedAttributes)) {
	//some attributes's value has changed
	}

Note: model represents the backbone model which corresponds to your sugar record.

If you are trying this in record.js controller, you can replace model with this.model.
