Solution to use pods based components in in-repo addon (working on ember 2.8 and 2.9 probably since 2.5)

ember-cli-build.js

/**

 There is no support for pod based components in addons as of ember 2.9. Also as ember is moving to https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/blob/master/text/0143-module-unification.md 
 pods are being discontinued (no longer supported). But for better organization of large in-repo addons pods are a must. 

 This gist provides solution how to use pods based components in in-repo addon. Even components.js based in pods of addon works problem is that template is not
 being compiled. Following adjustments provides also compilation of template. Its only solution I found because of private 
 anonymous function in ember-cli which handles template compilation of addons.

 To use pods in addon

 Addon has to have enabled pod
 addon-name/.embercli => "usePods": true

 Addon and app has to have same podModulePrefix
 addon/config/environment.js + app/config/environment.js => podModulePrefix: '<app or addon name>/pods',

 Include following in application ember-cli-build.js

**/

var EmberApp = require('ember-cli/lib/broccoli/ember-app');
var util = require('util');
var path = require('path');
var mergeTrees = require('broccoli-merge-trees');
var Funnel = require('broccoli-funnel');

var CustomApp = function () {
  return CustomApp.super_.apply(this, arguments);
};
util.inherits(CustomApp, EmberApp);

CustomApp.prototype._templatesTree = function () {

  var trees = [EmberApp.prototype._templatesTree.apply(this, arguments)];

  if (this.options.podSupportForAddons) {
    this.options.podSupportForAddons.forEach(function (c) {

      var podTemplates = new Funnel(
        path.join('node_modules', c.name, 'app'),
        {
          exclude: ['templates/**/*'],
          include: this._podTemplatePatterns(),
          destDir: this.name + '/',
          annotation: 'Funnel: Addon pod Templates'
        });

      trees.push(podTemplates);


    }.bind(this));
  }


  return this._cachedTemplateTree = mergeTrees(trees, {overwrite: true});
};


module.exports = function (defaults) {
  var app = new CustomApp(defaults, {

    podSupportForAddons: [
      {name: 'my-addon-name', pods: 'pods'} // pods = pods prefix
    ]


  });


  // Use `app.import` to add additional libraries to the generated
  // output files.
  //
  // If you need to use different assets in different
  // environments, specify an object as the first parameter. That
  // object's keys should be the environment name and the values
  // should be the asset to use in that environment.
  //
  // If the library that you are including contains AMD or ES6
  // modules that you would like to import into your application
  // please specify an object with the list of modules as keys
  // along with the exports of each module as its value.

  return app.toTree();
};

I am writing an in-repo-engine. how to use pods with in-repo-engine ?

I tried your solution but it is not working. I replaced node_modules with lib.
