Collections

var Rotor = require('rotor-backbone'),
	Model = require('./Model');

var Collection = Rotor.Collection.extend({
	model: Model,
    name: 'db_collection_name'
});

module.exports = new Collection();

In your router you can specify the Controller for each route and it will call the following methods:

methods: {
    'GET': 'getCollection', //response - the collections JSON
    'POST': 'saveNew', //adds document to DB, response - added model JSON
    'PUT': 'saveUpdated', //updates document, response - updated model JSON
    'DELETE': 'deleteItem' //deletes document, response - deleted model JSON
    }
