如何在reopenClass中访问容器而不接触全局变量？

Question

Currently building an Ember.js app using ember-cli.

Within a reopenClass for a model, I need to use the Ember Data "store":

Business.reopenClass({

  search: function(params) {
    # nope, there is no "store" on the class/static object
    var store = this.store;
  }

});

I know that I can use a global, but globals are so dirty :

Business.reopenClass({

  search: function(params) {
    # this works, but the `window` global & `__container__` accessor are verbotten
    var store = window.App.__container__.lookup("store:main");
  }

});

How does one use lookup or lookupFactory from within a class/static function?

Found a solution; following Ember's guard rails:

My Business#search method performs custom AJAX using RESTAdapter#ajax. Appropriately moved out to the adapter, where Container#lookup is possible.

var BusinessAdapter = ApplicationAdapter.extend({

  search: function(params) {
    // first class access to the container
    var store = this.container.lookup("store:main");
    // ...
    var promise = this.ajax(url, "GET", { data: params }).then(function(adapterPayload) {
      // ...
    });
    return promise;
  }

});
