Serializes and restores the ember-data store for fastboot

Ember-data-fastboot

This addon serializes the contents of your ember-data Store within the Fastboot shoebox. It happens like this:

1. Your application renders in the fastboot server.
2. At the end of fastboot rendering, all your Ember Data Models get serialized into the fastboot shoebox (which uses tags like <script type="fastboot/shoebox">).
3. Your application boots up in the browser. This addon's instance-initializer notices the serialized models and uses pushPayload to load them into the Store.
4. As your app renders in the browser, any store.findRecord, etc will locate the already cached models.

JSON-API Required

Right now, this addon assumes that your application is using DS.JSONAPISerializer as your application's default serialization method. See cardstack#3 if you're interested in making it work for any format.

Installation

ember install ember-data-fastboot
