How to access dynamic segment in a controller in Ember.js?

Question

I have an example route:

this.route(\'client\', {path: \':id\'});

I can access this in my route like this:

model: function(para

There's a serialize function within the Route that you can take advantage of. Here's the API Documentation for it. However, in your context, you can just do this:

App.IndexRoute = Em.Route.extend({
  model: function(params) {
    console.log(params.client_id);
  },
  serialize: function(model){
    return { client_id : model.id };
  }
});

Let me know if this works!

I also noticed an error in your route definition. It should presumably be

this.route('client', {path: '/:client_id'});

or

this.route('client', {path: '/client/:client_id'});
