I think the approach you are taking is correct in that case. I can suggest another way to do a singleton but maybe we should try and get this working the ember way? Actually I looked and we do have a few ember services already! They’re just not used via `Ember.inject`. The problem is probably that the resolver we use doesn’t resolve them. I suspect if you add a `resolveService` method to [the custom resolver](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse-common/resolver.js.es6#L103) it might work! If not, maybe add some debugging to see what `Ember.inject` is looking up? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/using-ember-services-in-discourse-plugins/51713)._
