If I have an ember object in coffeescript as per the documentation
Person = Ember.Object.extend
name: null
lastName: null
fullName: Ember.computed ->
return 'hello'
.property('name', 'lastName')
person = Person.create
name: 'Tom'
lastName: 'Tim'
Using person.get('fullName')
returns an ember object instead of the fullname
m =>
_cacheable: true
_dependentKeys: Array[1]
0: "ownerships"
length: 1
__proto__: Array[0]
func: function () {
__proto__: Ember.Descriptor
Because of this (I assume), I see [object Object]
instead of the fullName
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="personView">
{{#with App.peopleController.person}}
<dt>First name</dt>
<dd>{{name}}</dd>
<dt>Fullname</dt>
<dd>{{fullName}}</dd>
{{/with}}
</script>
This renders:
First name
[object Object]
Pointing coffeescript gave me a hint: try to define fullName like this:
fullName: (->
return "hello"
).property('firstName', 'lastName')
I think in your example the value returned is the function itself, not the value.
EDIT
I tried to translate your code in javascript with: http://tinyurl.com/9mh2eho
Then, paste in a jsfiddle:

Both versions seem to work...Perhaps the mistake is somewhere else.
