Ember Fixtures data not loading

Question

I have been trying to get Ember fixtures data working on a test app I am developing that's based on the ember-rails gem. The data model seems to be loading when I use the Chrome Ember inspector tool but it doesn't load the actual data.

I have the following setup.

router.js

App.Router.map(function() {
  this.resource('projects'), { path: '/' };
});

store.js

App.ApplicationAdapter = DS.FixtureAdapter

models/project.js

App.Project = DS.Model.extend({
  name: DS.attr('string')
});

App.Project.FIXTURES = [
  { id: 1, 
    name: 'Test data 1'
  },
  { id: 2,
    name: 'Test data 2'
  }
];

routes/projectsRoute.js

App.ProjectRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
  model: function() {
    return this.store.find('project');                                            
  }
});

As i mentioned this is built on top of rails using the ember-rails gem.

Any help would be much appreciated :)

Instead of adding FIXTURES as a key, it looks like you have to reopen the Model:

App.Project.reopenClass({
  FIXTURES: [
    { id: 1, 
      name: 'Test data 1'
    },
    { id: 2,
      name: 'Test data 2'
    }
  ]
});
