Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 [attachment:40702.10.diff] Uses the wp.api JS client for the API
 connection handling.

 * main change is swapping out the ajax call for a
 wp.api.collections.CommunityEventsMine fetch call
 * built off [attachment:40702.8.diff] so doesn't include the latest
 changes (I can rebase)
 * switches the route `community-events/locations/me` to `/mine`. `/me` is
 currently a special route keyword for the wp-api client that returns a
 model instead of a collection. maybe the client should only do that for
 the default core routes?
 * includes some minor fixes in the wp-api client in part to accommodate
 the multi-part routes used here and also the lack of a matching model (the
 client assumes each collection will have a matching model endpoint)
