django-ember-modeler

django-ember-modeler attempts to make it easier to use Django models in your Ember applications. It's currently only useful for prototyping, as it's missing a lot of function that would be required for use in complex applications.

It's cloned from django-knockout-modeller.

django-ember-modeler turns this:

class MyObject(models.Model):
    myNumber = models.IntegerField()
    myName = models.CharField()

into this:

App.MyObject = DS.Model.extend({
    "myNumber": 666,
    "myName": "Bob McChobb"
});

with just this!

{{ MyObject|ember }}
