ember-cli generate controller with type option

gistfile1.md

In the Ember cli docs it states that you can specify the --type option when generating a controller.

From the docs at http://www.ember-cli.com/#detailed-list-of-blueprints-and-their-use

Controller

• Generates a Controller of a given name and type, with accompanying test.
• Options
  • Type
    • Basic
    • Default
    • Object
    • Array
• ember generate controller users --type array

I have ember-cli 0.1.3 installed.

Running:

ember generate controller users --type array

says:

The option '--type' is not supported by the generate command. Run ember generate --help for a list of supported options.

running ember help generate:

...
controller <name>
  Generates a controller of the given type.
...

does not specific that the --type option can be specified.

More info:

• This appears to be added here ember-cli/ember-cli#1498
• From this issue: ember-cli/ember-cli#1391

Tracking this down.

From the 0.1.3 changelog: "As part of the Ember 2.0 push remove controller types."
https://github.com/stefanpenner/ember-cli/releases/tag/v0.1.3

Looking for the code...

OK, this has definitely been removed: ember-cli/ember-cli@a264b5d

The Ember-cli docs need updated to reflect the changes.

It looks like changes inline with Ember dropping different controller types. It's now encouraged to use Ember.Controller class to define your controller.
