ember-literal

This README outlines the details of collaborating on this Ember addon.

Use

literal is a way of disambiguating between literals and property keys when using computed properties.

import l from 'ember-literal/macros/literal';
import among from 'ember-cpm/macros/among'; // from the wonderful ember-cpm library
 
var and = Ember.computed.and;
 
var MyOtherType = Ember.Object.extend({
  isServerReady: false,
  userInput: 'ready',
  ready: and('isUserReady', 'isServerReady'),
  isUserReady: among(    // NOTE: among doesn't have composed macro support, but it soon will!
    'userInput'          // property key
    l('ready'),          // literal (this would otherwise be ambiguious without using "literal")
    l('good'),           // literal
    l('fine'),           // literal
    l('satisfactory'),   // literal
    l('rad')             // literal
  )
});

You can use literal in your project two ways

1. Use it via the Ember namespace

Ember.literal

1. Import the macro directly

import literal from 'ember-literal/macros/literal';
