Positional Parameters

{{#let

    "blogs.posts.post"
    @post.blog.id
    @post.id
    (query-params showFullPost=true)
  )
  as |l|

Named Parameters

{{#let

    models=(array @post.blog.id @post.id)
    query=(hash showFullPost=true)
  )

When passing a single model, you can use model instead of models:

{{#let
  (link
    route="blogs.posts"
    model=@post.blog.id
  )
  as |l|
}}
  <a href={{l.url}} {{on "click" l.open}}>
    Read more stories in the {{@post.blog.name}} blog!
  </a>
{{/let}}

Mix & Match

You can also mix and match the parameter styles, however you like.

{{#let
  (link
    "blogs.posts.post"
    @post.blog.id
    @post.id
    query=(hash showFullPost=true)
  )
  as |l|
}}
  <a href={{l.url}} {{on "click" l.open}}>
    Read the full "{{@post.title}}" story on our {{@post.blog.name}} blog!
  </a>
{{/let}}

fromURL

Instead of the positional & named link parameters described above, you can also create a Link instance from a serialized URL.

{{! someURL = "/blogs/tech/posts/dont-break-the-web" }}
{{#let (link fromURL=this.someURL) as |l|}}
  <a href={{l.url}} {{on "click" l.open}}>
    Read the next great post.
  </a>
{{/let}}

fromURL is mutually exclusive with the other link parameters: route, model & models, query

Parameters
