Get ready for ember-stargate 🌟
Simon Ihmig (@simonihmig) announced a new addon called ember-stargate – a modern and lightweight take on portals in Ember.
“Portals” are a way to render things in a different place of the DOM tree than they are logically defined in the app. There are a number of existing solutions in the Ember ecosystem for the same problem such as ember-wormhole, ember-elsewhere, the native {{in-element}} (previously using the ember-in-element-polyfill).
The ember-stargate addon aims to solve this problem without using private APIs, Ember's component helper, or having to jump through hoops to implement. All you need to make a portal work is to define the content that should be sent through the portal using <Portal @target="some-target">, and the target - identified by its name - where it should be rendered to using <PortalTarget @name="some-target">.
For example, suppose you want to update the footer in application.hbs from a child route:
Route:
<Portal @target="footer-title">Step 1</Portal>
Application:
{{outlet}}
<footer class="sticky-footer">
<PortalTarget @name="footer-title" class="sticky-footer__title" />
</footer>
