EmberJS: Allow Optional ID in Resource

Using Emberjs, I would like to follow the REST specification, whereby an array of all objects is returned when no id is specified:

My routes are defined as follows:

Router.map ->
    @resource "database", ":database_id", ->
        @route "new"
        @route "edit"

How can I allow for an optional id in my resource?

Im not the biggest fan of CoffeeScript so ill be replying with good old JavaScript.

So your routes look wrong, they should be as follows

App.Router.map(function() {
   this.resource("databases", function() {
       this.route("new"),
       this.resource("databases", { path: '/databases/:id' }, function() {
          this.route("edit"),
       });
   });
});

this would give you the following,

/databases (list of databases )
/databases/new  ( create a new database )
/databases/:id  ( view a database with id :id)
/databases/:id/edit  (edit the database with id of :id )

this removes the need for needing an optional ID.
