Deprecation Guide for Migrating from _lookupFactory to factoryFor

The private API method _lookupFactory is deprecated and replaced by factoryFor in public API. This API will return the original base class registered into or resolved by the container and a create function to generate a dependency-injected instance.

Addon creators and maintainers can use ember-factory-for-polyfill for addons supporting versions 2.3+, or ember-getowner-polyfill for 1.10+.

Before:

export default Component.extend(
  init() {
    this._super(...arguments);
    let Factory = getOwner(this)._lookupFactory('logger:main');
    this.logger = Factory.create({ level: 'low' });
  }
});

After:

export default Component.extend(
  init() {
    this._super(...arguments);
    let factory = getOwner(this).factoryFor('logger:main');
    this.logger = factory.create({ level: 'low' });
  }
});

Any methods or properties of the factory can be accessed through the class property when using factoryFor.

let factory = owner.factoryFor('widget:slow');
let klass = factory.class;
klass.hasSpeed('slow'); // true
