Giving models an index/weight

Ember Data
1

Hi, assuming a list of posts, how would you give them an index for sorting? I would initially like to show which post is number 1, 2 based on date. It can not depend on the model id, in case a post is deleted.

Bonus question, if the same property could be used for drag’n’drop sorting later, it would be great. Of course it can’t depend on date then.

Put them in an ArrayController and configure that controller to sort based on number and date:
