How to get ember-life working in your 1.x.x ember app

README.markdown

What?

Are you using setInterval, setTimeout, or Ember.run in your components?

If the answer is "yes", you probably should look into using https://www.npmjs.com/package/ember-lifeline instead

Why?

The read the long answer on the addon repo itself, but the TL;DR is using ember-lifeline plays better with component life-cycles and avoids your queues never flushing

What's the problem

You can't use it if you're in 1.x.x... even though you probably need the most. This is because the import statements expect ember-metal which isn't a thing in the earlier versions

ember-cli-build.js

  
  app.import('vendor/shims/ember-metal.js');
  app.import('vendor/shims/ember-runloop.js');

vendor-shims-ember-metal.js

(function() {
  'use strict';
  function vendorMixinModule() {
    return {
        'default': self['Ember'].Mixin
    };
  }

  function vendorUtilsModule() {
      var assert = self['Ember'].assert;
      return {
          'assert': assert,
          'default': { assert: assert }
      };
  }

  define('ember-metal/mixin', [], vendorMixinModule);
  define('ember-metal/utils', [], vendorUtilsModule);
})();

vendor-shims-ember-runloop.js

(function() {
  function vendorModule() {
    'use strict';

    return { 'default': self['Ember'].run };
  }

  define('ember-runloop', [], vendorModule);
})();
