# Actor notes
|
||
|
||
> The Actor#getData default implementation gives you the following for use in sheet rendering:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
actor -> the Actor instance
|
||
data -> a cloned copy of Actor#data
|
||
items -> a cloned copy of Actor#data#items
|
||
effects -> a cloned copy of Actor#data#effects
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> if all you need is a safe copy of `Actor#data`, you'll be much better off by simply defining your own function and avoiding all the wasted work that the parent class does which will slow down your sheet
|
||
```js
|
||
getData(options) {
|
||
return {
|
||
data: foundry.utils.deepClone(this.object.data)
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
who knows, maybe you don't even need to copy your actor data, skip the copy and it's even faster:
|
||
```js
|
||
getData(options) {
|
||
return {
|
||
data: this.object.data
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```

There are two recommended ways to create owned items in 0.8.0:
|
||
```js
|
||
await Item.create(itemData, {parent: actor});
|
||
await actor.createEmbeddedDocuments("Item", itemDataArray);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
You can update an embedded item in one of two ways:
|
||
```js
|
||
//Method 1:
|
||
|
||
const item = actor.items.get(itemId);
|
||
item.update(data);
|
||
|
||
//Method 2:
|
||
actor.updateEmbeddedDocuments("Item", [{_id: itemId, ...}]);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
I noticed adding an ActiveEffect to an actor in code using
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
this.createEmbeddedDocuments('ActiveEffect', [effet], options);
|
||
this.applyActiveEffects();
|
||
```

Two notes on this:
|
||
1. You don't actually need to call this.applyActiveEffects() because this will happen automatically whenever an effect is created/updated/deleted
|
||
2. If you want to suppress the automatic display of the sheet for the newly created document, you can pass options.renderSheet = false as part of your options object |
