* Recent versions of ember-data (3.12+) will automatically use
`ember-fetch` (or global `fetch`) if present, and does not need
special logic around `najax`
* New applications (as of ember-cli@3.13.0) include `ember-fetch` by
default, and do **not** include jQuery by default. Considering that
`najax` is a `jQuery.ajax` emulation API, I think this library should
avoid exposing it.
* `najax` (as a dependency of this library) is difficult for the host
application to control (e.g. get their own version), and would be
better if they provided it themselves (via `buildSandboxGlobals` API)
* Providing backwards compatibility is **very** easy (add `najax:
require('najax')` via `buildSandboxGlobals`)
* It seems better to "follow a spec" (suggesting `fetch` usage)
For applications that still need `najax` (for example, if they are using
an older ember-data version), they can do (example uses new
`buildSandboxGlobals` API):
```js
const najax = require('najax');
let fastboot = new FastBoot({
distPath: 'some/path/to/dist',
buildSandboxGlobals(globals) {
return Object.assign({}, globals, {
najax,
});
}
});
```

fwiw you need najax even in current versions of ember-data if you don't have ember-fetch installed. This change trolled our fastboot tests in ember-data itself because when we test the jquery scenario we add @ember/jquery and remove ember-fetch, once we bump to fastboot 3 this fails (see embermap/ember-cli-fastboot-testing#471 and ember-fastboot/ember-cli-fastboot#829). It's not clear how to add najax back in from this example for ember-cli-fastboot-testing. |
