meteor iron-router session.get doesn't work

I'm trying to implement this route:

  @route "buildingSpaceTenant",
    path: "/buildings/:_building_id/spaces/:_space_id/tenants/:_id/communications"
    template: "tenant"
    yieldTemplates: {
      Session.get("current_tenant_subtemplate"): {to: "subTemplate"}
    }

but apparently I can't use the session object this way. 

<runJavaScript-30>:148:11: client/routes/tenantsRoute.coffee:44: unexpected . (compiling client/routes/tenantsRoute.coffee) (at handler)

What's the right way?

You can't use variable names as keys in an object literal. If yieldTemplates can accept a function (I don't think it can), you could try something like:

@route 'buildingSpaceTenant',
  path: '/buildings/:_building_id/spaces/:_space_id/tenants/:_id/communications'
  template: 'tenant'
  yieldTemplates: ->
    templateName = Session.get 'current_tenant_subtemplate'
    obj = {}
    obj[templateName] = to: 'subTemplate'
    obj

I had a look at the example from this issue which implies that you could try overriding action to achieve the same end result.

@route 'buildingSpaceTenant',
  path: '/buildings/:_building_id/spaces/:_space_id/tenants/:_id/communications'
  template: 'tenant'
  action: ->
    if @ready()
      @render()
      templateName = Session.get 'current_tenant_subtemplate'
      @render templateName, to: 'subTemplate'
    else
      @render 'loading'

Give those ideas a try and let me know how it goes.
