  1. PORunning an ember controller function when route loads to set property that controls a checkbox
    text
    copied!<p>I have set up an ember checkbox:</p> <pre><code>{{view Ember.Checkbox checkedBinding='isChecked'}} </code></pre> <p>This checkbox is bound to this controller: </p> <pre><code>App.SettingsController = Ember.Controller.extend({ isChecked: false, isItChecked: function(){ var me = this; $.getJSON('ajax/checkIfUseLowRes.php', function(data){ //console.log(data); //me.isChecked = data; me.set('isChecked', data); //console.log(me.isChecked); }) }, sendSetting: function(){ var isChecked = this.isChecked; //this.set('isChecked', !isChecked); console.log(isChecked); $.post('ajax/setLowRes.php', {useLowRes: isChecked}); App.nameSpace.set('needsRefresh', true); }.observes('isChecked') }); </code></pre> <p>Essentially it is a checkbox which posts a setting, my problem is setting the original state of the checkbox. When I load the route, I want to have <code>isItChecked()</code> run to set the checkbox's original state. </p> <p>Example: 1. I go in to settings, click the checkbox 2. I leave the site and come back to the settings page Here is where I want the <code>isItChecked()</code> function to run to query the server and see if the setting is set</p> <p>If it is set, the get request returns true, I want the checkbox to be checked, hence setting me.isChecked to data (true)</p> <p>as of right now I can't figure out how to do this, can anyone help me?</p> <p>I've tried setting it in my <code>App.SettingsRoute</code>'s model, but that doesn't seem to be able to run the function in my controller.</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p>JSBin:<a href="http://jsbin.com/ukuwiq/1/edit">http://jsbin.com/ukuwiq/1/edit</a></p>
