Input helper with input action throws error

[danevans]

Using something like:

{{input type="text" value=newName input="updateName"}}

Causes an exception (Uncaught TypeError: method.apply is not a function) to be thrown.

It's using this form with the event name as input which is listed in valid event names.

It appears that in the trigger method within Ember's CoreView, this[name] is getting resolved to the string "updateName" instead of the method with that name.

I checked events available on inputs on Chrome and input is not listed. I'm not able to find a documentation on this event. Do you have something?

Here is the list of events available on Chrome :

Oups, sorry. input is in the list.

I'm curious if this is related, #11678

@danevans If your are in 2.3.1+ i'd strongly recommend to use this instead:

<input type="text" value={{newName}} oninput={{action "updateName"}}>

[danevans]

@cibernox is the recommendation to not use the {{input}} helper at all or just avoid it when using actions or just certain actions like this one?

[cibernox]

@danevans I don't use it anymore. {{input}} is harder to use an around 40x slower

I am closing this issue because my understanding is a resolution has been reached.
Feel free to re-open the issue if you think it's still justified, thank you!
