Ah - you're trying to use the "hook module" data source ? That would
explain it - that data store doesn't have a getItems() function, or a create-,
update- or deleteItem function either. In short, that data store is still very
experimental and should not be used for anything other than tests.

I do intend to continue working on linking "hooked content" via DD, but
the exact mechanism and format is still under investigation I'm afraid.

The only fully functional data sources are dynamic_data and the table
fields - the rest only works in a very limited way.

And the same applies for the property types that correspond to a 
particular hook (categories, hitcount, ratings, comments) - those will
not work outside a limited test environment yet. The other property types
-and the one for the Upload hook- should work fine though...

Sorry for the confusion,

Mike.
