App.MyleavesController = Ember.ObjectController.extend({
submitAction: function () {
data=[{fromdate:this.get("model.fromdate")}]
$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "/apply_leave",

def post(self):
    print json.loads(data)

but i could not get data..

it says " global name 'data' is not defined"

Answer 1

For a POST request, use json.loads(self.request.body). Arguments to post() are extracted from the url regex.
