Detailed Description

The EditorialModel is a read-only model used to fetch editorials related to a Place. Binding a Place via EditorialModel::place initiates an initial fetch of editorials. The model performs fetches incrementally and is intended to be used in conjunction with a View such as a ListView. When the View reaches the last of the editorials currently in the model, a fetch is performed to retrieve more if they are available. The View is automatically updated as the editorials are received. The number of editorials which are fetched at a time is specified by the batchSize property. The total number of editorials available can be accessed via the totalCount property.

The model returns data for the following roles:

Role	Type	Description
text	string	The editorial's textual description of the place. It can be either rich (HTML based) text or plain text depending upon the provider.
title	string	The title of the editorial.
language	string	The language that the editorial is written in.
supplier	Supplier	The supplier of the editorial.
user	User	The user who contributed the editorial.
attribution	string	Attribution text which must be displayed when displaying the editorial.
