Using Ember.js text field ids for a tag

Question

A label tag is of the form:

W

Answer 1

Here was my solution to this problem from a while back:

App.Widget.TextField = Em.ContainerView.extend({
    tagName: '',
    type: 'text',
    label: null,
    value: null,
    valueSize: '30px',

    childViews: ['labelView', 'inputView'],

    labelView: Em.View.extend({
        tagName: 'label',
        attributeBindings: ['for'],

        forBinding: 'parentView.inputView.elementId',

        init: function () {
            this.set('defaultTemplate', Em.Handlebars.compile(this.getPath('parentView.label')));
            this._super();
        }
    }),

    inputView: Em.TextField.extend({
        typeBinding: 'parentView.type',
        sizeBinding: 'parentView.valueSize',
        valueBinding: 'parentView.value'
    })
});

Then from within a Handlebars template:

{{view App.Widget.TextField label="Some Label"}}
