Class DS.PromiseObject

Extends: Ember.ObjectProxy
Uses: Ember.PromiseProxyMixin
Defined in: packages/ember-data/lib/system/promise-proxies.js:35
Module: ember-data

A PromiseObject is an object that acts like both an Ember.Object and a promise. When the promise is resolved, then the resulting value will be set to the PromiseObject's content property. This makes it easy to create data bindings with the PromiseObject that will be updated when the promise resolves.

For more information see the Ember.PromiseProxyMixin documentation.

Example

var promiseObject = DS.PromiseObject.create({
  promise: $.getJSON('/some/remote/data.json')
});

promiseObject.get('name'); // null

promiseObject.then(function() {
  promiseObject.get('name'); // 'Tomster'
});
