how send Post request with ajax in ember.js? - forms

Question

I want to send a POST (not GET) request to the server with ember.js. I don't know which function I need at "which function here", but I want to send it to the server for a login request.
App.LoginController = Ember.ObjectController.extend({
actions: {
userLogin: function(user) {
// which function here?
?? ("http://siteurl/api/authentication/login/&username=" + user.username + "&password=" + user.password + "");
this.transitionTo('cat');
},
cancelLogin: function() {
this.transitionTo('menu');
}
}
});
App.UserFormComponent = Ember.Component.extend({
actions: {
submit: function() {
this.sendAction('submit', {
username: this.get('username'),
password: this.get('password')
});
},
cancel: function() {
this.sendAction('cancel');
}
}
});
down here template code
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="login">
<header class="bar bar-nav">

Ember doesn't have any built in communication layer, you can use jquery for such calls.
App.LoginController = Ember.ObjectController.extend({
actions: {
userLogin: function(user) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://siteurl/api/authentication/login/&username=" + user.username + "&password=" + user.password,
data: { name: "John", location: "Boston" }
})
this.transitionTo('cat');
},
cancelLogin: function() {
this.transitionTo('menu');
}
}
});
