Are there any examples in Discourse of decorating a widget after an ajax request?

[Overgrow (OG)]

The only solution I’ve found so far is to switch to Component and use bufferedRender and to observe for changes in local variable, then call re-render.

export default Ember.Component.extend(bufferedRender({

  @on("init")
  _updateContent() {
    if (!this.get('content')) {
      ajax("/growfaq.json").then(data => {
        this.set('content', data);
      });
    }
  }

  @observes('content')
  _rerenderOnChange() {
    this.rerenderBuffer();
  },

  
}));

Also I should note that widgets aren’t really meant to retrieve data. They can do it, but it usually makes a lot more sense to retrieve the data in a route or controller and pass it down to the widgets.
