Ember Data: Get a Model in the Console
console, ember-data, ember.js, javascript
Solution
The store is injected to routes/controllers. Inside a route/controller you can use `this.store.find('user', 1)` to fetch a model. But there is no global access to the store.

If you feel guilty about touching the innards, which you should a bit, do not read on.
For transparency sake, you can get the store globally. After the application has initialized and is ready you can use the innards of ember to fetch it using the container lookup method. (If you need to know when the app is ready you can use the application `ready` hook.
var store = App.__container__.lookup('store:main');
var user = store.find('user', 1);

Problem
I have the simplest possible Ember app in this JSBin. All I'm trying to do is find a model. Based on other SO questions, I've tried the following. ``` App.User.get('store').find('user', 1); App.User.Store.find('user', 1); ``` I've defined `App.Store`, but `App.Store` returns `undefined` in the console. I'm obviously missing the absolute most basic concepts of Ember models. Explain like I'm 5, please? I literally just want to return a `user` object and call a property on it.
