Ember.inject.service()

Creates a property that lazily looks up a service in the container. There are no restrictions as to what objects a service can be injected into.

Example:

App.ApplicationRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
  authManager: Ember.inject.service('auth'),

  model: function() {
    return this.get('authManager').findCurrentUser();
  }
});

This example will create an authManager property on the application route that looks up the auth service in the container, making it easily accessible in the model hook.
