To use moment.js in an Ember.js router, you can add it as a dependency in your Ember application.


First, install moment.js using npm or yarn:

1
npm install moment


Or

1
yarn add moment


Then, you can import and use moment.js in your Ember router file (typically located at app/router.js):

import EmberRouter from '@ember/routing/router';
import config from './config/environment';
import moment from 'moment'; // Import moment.js

const Router = EmberRouter.extend({
  location: config.locationType,
  rootURL: config.rootURL
});

Router.map(function() {
  // Define your routes here
});

export default Router;


You can then use moment.js functions like moment().format() or moment().add(1, 'day') in your Ember router or controllers to work with dates and times.


Remember to include moment.js in your ember-cli-build.js file if you're using Ember CLI:

1

// ember-cli-build.js

const app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
  // Add options here
  'ember-moment': {
    includeTimezone: 'subset'
  }
});


This will make moment.js functions available throughout your Ember application.
