How to re-render application template with new router?

问题

The code

I'm using the version 4fcdbf2560 with the new router.

In my application, a user can be authenticated or not. The rendered template will not be the same depending on the authentication state.

I've manage this by redefining the function renderTemplate in the ApplicationRoute:

App.ApplicationRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
    renderTemplate: function() {
        this.render(App.authenticated() ? 'authenticated' : 'unauthenticated');
    }
});

My router is quite simple:

App.Router.map(function(match) {
    match('/').to('index');

    match('/sign').to('sign', function(match) {
        match('/in').to('signIn');
    });

    match('/dashboard').to('dashboard');
});

The IndexRoute is just here to redirect the user depending on the authentication state:

App.IndexRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
    redirect: function() {
        this.transitionTo(App.authenticated() ? 'dashboard' : 'signIn');
    }
});

The workflow

1. A user navigates to /
2. The ApplicationRoute is entered, as the user is not authenticated, the unauthenticated template is rendered
3. The IndexRoute is entered, as the user is not authenticated, a redirection is made to signIn
4. The signIn template is rendered into its parent template -> the unauthenticated template
5. The user sign in successfully, route.transitionTo('dashboard') is called
6. The dashboard template is rendered into its parent template -> the unauthenticated template

The questions

• What's wrong with my implementation ?
• Why does the renderTemplate function is not called when the dashboard template is rendered ?
• How can I force the application to re-render its template ?

I've modified my code according to Evan's answer.

My application template now looks like this:

{{#if isAuthenticated}}
    <h1>Authenticated</h1>
    {{outlet}}
{{else}}
    <h1>Unauthenticated</h1>
    {{outlet}}
{{/if}}

When the user lands on the application page, as he's not authenticated, it's the unauthenticated block which is rendered. Everything is working well except that nothing render into the {{outlet}} tag...

But when my application template looks like this (=without conditional tags):

<h1>Unauthenticated</h1>
{{outlet}}

...it works ! So I wonder if the {{outlet}} tag can be inserted between conditional tags.

I think it might be a mistake to have this logic in the Router; Instead this should be part of the ApplicationController.

Since ember will automatically update the templates as application state changes you can create an ApplicationController that tracks the authentication state

App.ApplicationController = Ember.Controller.extend({
    isAuthenticated: null
});

And construct your templates like this:

<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="application">
    {{ #if isAuthenticated }}
        You are now logged in
    {{ else }}
        Please Log In
    {{ /if }}
</script>

Now you don't actually have to worry about manually updating / rendering the template. As the internal (JS) state changes your template will automatically update to reflect the application state.
