Using current User for Ember Data Queries

Question

I am using Ember Simple Auth to authenticate with my backend. I almost got it working. The Problem is now how I get it nicely together with Ember-Data. I have some ressources that have end points like this:

/api/users/:user_id/activities

The Problem is now that I don't know how to inject the :user_id for this route from the current user.

And there are some other scenarios when I want to show the data of another user and in that cases I would obviously pass a different user ID.

My routes are also not helping, since I am showing the activies on the dashboard, and therefore don't have the user_id in the route. Only in the session, or where SimpleAuth stores the user.

There's an example in the Ember.SimpleAuth repo that shows how to extend it with an authenticated account/current user: https://github.com/simplabs/ember-simple-auth/blob/master/examples/4-authenticated-account.html
