Handling Ember model error w/ JSONAPI

Question

This has been answer for the MOST part here: Handling errors with the (now default) Ember Data JSON-API adapter

I won't even go into how Ember docs stress to follow JSON API specs (http://jsonapi.org/format/), yet as far as I've read they don't even adhere to them (based off the answer linked to above)... but I digress!

I am not sure how to get errors into my model from the model() hook itself.

For example:

import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Route.extend({
    model() {
        return this.get('store').findAll('page').catch(function(){});
    }
});

I am unable to access the errors in my template as such:

{{#each model.errors as |error|}}
    <div class="error msg_animate">{{{error.message}}}</div>
{{/each}}

I know I am missing a key factor here. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Error response should follow the standard JSON API format,

http://jsonapi.org/format/#errors

Sample format,

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "status": "Error status",
      "code": 500,
      "message":"error message",
      "detail": "Some generic non property error message",
      "source": {
        "pointer": "data"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Most importantly, you need to include error function callback for Promise, Sample,

model() {
 return this.get('store').findAll('page').then(
     function(result){return result;},
     function(errors){ return errors; });
 }

The format was not the issue. it was that I was not returning the errors from the promise. Thx! — Gurnzbot, Oct 05 '16 at 16:04
