Why am I getting this error in a basic Rails+Ember app? - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am trying to do a simple CRUD app using Ember + Rails and I'm getting the following error when trying to go to the /workouts route.
Error while loading route: TypeError {} ember.js?body=1:415
Uncaught TypeError: Object function () {

}

initMixins = null;
this.reopen.apply(this, mixins);
}
if (initProperties) {
// capture locally so we can clear the closed over variable
var props = initProperties;
initProperties = null;
var concatenatedProperties = this.concatenatedProperties;

var properties = props[i];
Ember.assert("Ember.Object.create no longer supports mixing in other definitions, use createWithMixins instead.", !(properties instanceof Ember.Mixin));

if (IS_BINDING.test(keyName)) {
var bindings = m.bindings;
if (!bindings) {

} else if (!m.hasOwnProperty('bindings')) {
bindings = m.bindings = o_create(m.bindings);
}
bindings[keyName] = value;
}

} has no method 'find'

What am I doing wrong?
Edit: Upon further investigation I believe the culprit is
EmberWorkouts.WorkoutsRoute = Ember.Route.extend(
model: -> EmberWorkouts.Workout.find()
This doesn't actually return anything. How do I debug from there?
If I replace that with this
EmberWorkouts.WorkoutsRoute = Ember.Route.extend
model: -> [{title: 'hi'}, {title: 'damn'}]
The view actually renders content.
How do I get the model to collect from Rails properly?

Answer 1

Ember Data's interface has changed a little with the current release:
You can clear out the store.js file entirely. Ember Data will automatically set up a data store for you using the REST Adapter (unless you tell it otherwise).
Use model: -> #store.find('workout') instead.
I tested this with your app and it works.
If you haven't read through the Ember Data Guide in the last week or two (it's changed a lot), I would spend a few minutes on it.

The fix for this error (as of ember-data 1.0.0.beta.6) for me was to make sure that the JSON returned from the server included an "id" field for each model, BUT not to explicitly declare the id when setting up the Ember DS.Model.
jbuilder template:
json.scans do
json.array! #scans do |scan|
json.id scan.id # This prop has to be there
json.name scan.name
end
end
Ember model:
EmberApp.Scan = DS.Model.extend(
// Don't include the id prop here
name: DS.attr("string")
)
