Passing data to component inside component

Hi,

Said this a few times now, but a total ember n00b. Learning on the go...

Been watching a course on FrontEnd Masters and when they got to ember data, it's sounds like the idea is that if you want to add something extra to your model, you use a controller. Bit confused because elsewhere I read controllers will fall away.

I needed to add something to my model and by trial and error figured out this, not sure if a good way but works fine?

Model: import Model from 'ember-data/model'; import attr from 'ember-data/attr';

export default Model.extend({
    name: attr('string'),
    dealTypes: attr()
});

Route: import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Route.extend({

  model: function () {
    var model = this.store.createRecord('deal');
    var dealTypes = this.store.findAll('dealtype');
    model.dealTypes = dealTypes;
    return model;
  },
.....

I then use that dealtypes in a component I created (bootstrap / select2) and all seems fine?

I guess my question is....should I bother watching the course on front-end masters further or rather stick to an up to date book like ember 101 / Rock and Roll with EmberJs?
