ember.js - Is "basic" a reserved route name in Ember? -

i have route in ember app called "basic" corresponding name of api endpoint.

this route doesn't work - links don't render template.

here's jsbin demonstrating failure: http://emberjs.jsbin.com/hisoxadi/1

js:

app = ember.application.create();  app.router.map(function() {   this.route('basic');   this.route('test'); });  app.indexroute = ember.route.extend({   model: function() {     return ['red', 'yellow', 'blue'];   } }); 

templates:

  <script type="text/x-handlebars">     <h2> welcome ember.js</h2>      {{#link-to 'index'}}index{{/link-to}}      {{#link-to 'basic'}}basic route{{/link-to}}      {{#link-to 'test'}}test route{{/link-to}}      {{outlet}}   </script>    <script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="basic">   basic route here   </script>    <script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="test">   test route here   </script>    <script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="index">     <ul>     {{#each item in model}}       <li>{{item}}</li>     {{/each}}     </ul>   </script> 

to expand on comment bit, basic indeed reserved word. specifically, it's reserved word resolver. can see source here.

userouternaming: function(parsedname) {   parsedname.name = parsedname.name.replace(/\./g, '_');   if (parsedname.name === 'basic') {       parsedname.name = '';   } }, 

and because of way ember.js looks routes , controllers in container, it's fair bet there's no way around without major code changes. there should documentation issue filed this.

edit: created issue here.
