Using {{outlet}} as variable name in Ember

Question

I have the following Ember template;

{{#with model}}
<h2>Order #{{id}}</h2>
<table>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Outlet</th>
            <th>Date</th>
            <th>Link</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>{{outlet}}</td>
            <td>{{date}}</td>
            <td>{{#link-to 'next-route' this}}Go{{/link-to}}</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
{{/with}}
<hr>
{{outlet}}

How to do I keep Ember from using the first {{outlet}} (which is just the property's name) to add the next view I'm transitioning to?

outlet is a reserved word, that being said, if you fully qualify it it will work.

In your case, with the with block you can't fully qualify it, but if you remove the with block it will work.

Personally I'd avoid using it, it's analogous to having a variable named for or if

<h2>Order #{{id}}</h2>
<table>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Outlet</th>
            <th>Date</th>
            <th>Link</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>{{model.outlet}}</td>
            <td>{{date}}</td>
            <td>{{#link-to 'next-route' this}}Go{{/link-to}}</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
<hr>
{{outlet}}

To keep the model. bit from repeating, I was using #with. But I guess it's one thing or the other.
