Setting the value of a polymorphic belongsTo relationship

Ember Data
1

I’m trying to set the value of a polymorphic belongsTo, and I keep getting a TypeError: Cannot read property 'modelName' of undefined from ember.

Here are my models:

// handle.js
import DS from "ember-data";
export default DS.Model.extend({
    username: DS.attr('string'),
    incoming: DS.hasMany('request', { async: true, inverse: 'actor'     }),
    outgoing: DS.hasMany('request', { async: true, inverse: 'requestor' })
});

// community.js
import DS from "ember-data";
import Handle from "./handle";
export default Handle.extend({
    name: DS.attr('string')
});

// request.js
import DS from "ember-data";
export default DS.Model.extend({
    requestor: DS.belongsTo('handle', { async: true, polymorphic: true, inverse: 'outgoing' }),
    actor: DS.belongsTo('handle', { async: true, polymorphic: true, inverse: 'incoming' }),
});

Now, I have an existing Community model saved in the community variable, and I’m trying to create a new Request model like so:

this.store.createRecord('request', {
    actor: community
}).save();

Problem is, this generates an error with the following stack trace:

Is this a bug in Ember or am I doing something wrong?

PS I simplified the models quite a bit, omitting (what I thought was) more unimportant details.

After doing some investigating, it could be a problem with FixtureAdapter. Maybe I need to do some special configuration or something to support polymorphic relationships?

When the TypeError is thrown, the promise returned by save() fails.
