ember-cli meta config/environment file

Question

I'm using ember-cli to structure my app.

It compiles all the files to the dist/ directory.

However as I inspected the compiled index.html I noticed it was creating this meta tag.

<meta name="user/config/environment" content="%7B%22modulePrefix%22%3A%22user%22%2C%22environment%22%3A%22development%22%2C%22baseURL%22%3A%22/%22%2C%22locationType%22%3A%22auto%22%2C%22contentSecurityPolicy%22%3A%7B%22default-src%22%3A%22%27none%27%20localhost%22%2C%22script-src%22%3A%22%27self%27%20%27unsafe-inline%27%20%27unsafe-eval%27%20use.typekit.net%20connect.facebook.net%20maps.googleapis.com%20maps.gstatic.com%22%2C%22font-src%22%3A%22%27self%27%20data%3A%20use.typekit.net%22%2C%22connect-src%22%3A%22%27self%27%20localhost%22%2C%22img-src%22%3A%22%27self%27%20www.facebook.com%20p.typekit.net%22%2C%22style-src%22%3A%22%27self%27%20%27unsafe-inline%27%20use.typekit.net%22%2C%22frame-src%22%3A%22s-static.ak.facebook.com%20static.ak.facebook.com%20www.facebook.com%22%7D%2C%22EmberENV%22%3A%7B%22FEATURES%22%3A%7B%7D%7D%2C%22APP%22%3A%7B%22LOG_ACTIVE_GENERATION%22%3Atrue%2C%22LOG_VIEW_LOOKUPS%22%3Atrue%7D%2C%22exportApplicationGlobal%22%3Atrue%7D">

This is a problem for my deployment as I'm currently using the ember-app within another page and this meta tag is needed for the ember app to work. Is there a way to make this as part of the javascript compiled file or get rid of this altogether?

The ability to build your app without this was recently added in this PR

You can set it up to be in your compiled JS output by passing in the storeConfigInMeta option. To opt-out, it should look like this in your Brocfile.js

/* global require, module */

var EmberApp = require('ember-cli/lib/broccoli/ember-app');

var app = new EmberApp({
  storeConfigInMeta: false
});

module.exports = app.toTree();

This is available in ember-cli 0.1.2 which is the latest version right now
