TransitionTo with context

I am having some issues with embers transitionTo, I can't get it to pass a parameter through to a state inside context. Trying to use

test: Ember.Route.transitionTo('step', {step:1}),

But this doesn't pass the value of step in the context to the route. If I had a state 'final' and used 

test: Ember.Route.transitionTo('final'),

the route final is entered, as obviously no context is passed

I think what you are looking for might be the router.send() method, which accepts a second argument as context.

so if you have this defined in your router

test: Ember.Route.transitionTo('final')

Then you should be able to call

App.router.send('test', {step:1})

from wherever you want in code. That {step:1} will then be passed as the context to the route.

When using Ember.Route.transitionTo('state'), you are defining a handler, which calls router.transitionTo('state', context), where context is retrieved at runtime.

So test: Ember.Route.transitionTo('step', {step:1}) is invalid, but context in the action helper, for example {{action test controller.content}}

see http://jsfiddle.net/Sly7/6p6XJ/168/

Hope this helps
