[Resolved] Getting access to the route's model in a Controller upon init

@tsteuwer wrote:

So here's my scenario:

• I load the route, and generate a model.
• I need to check that model to see if it has certain properties, if it does I need to: -- Request more information.

However, during the init function of the controller, I do this.get('model') and it always returns null.

Is there an event im supposed to listen to after the model's been set on the controller? I'm not finding anything anywhere

import Ember from 'ember';
import { task } from 'ember-concurrency';

export default Ember.Controller.extend({
  actions: {
    setSort(type) {
      this.set('model.sortBy', [type, 'rank:asc']);
    }
  },
  
  init: function(...args) {
    this._super.apply(this, args);

    console.log(this.model); // This is NULL
    console.log(this.get('model')); // This is NULL
    console.log(this.get('currentModel')); // This is UNDEFINED
  },
  
  requestDataTask: task(function* () {
    yield console.log('dostuff here');
  }).maxConcurrency(3)
});
