Q:

Returning 1 object/record from my model in Ember

In a test app I running, I have fixture data for employees with name, department, etc.  Currently, my model contains all of the employees, and I am able to make an employee list. However, I want to make a side component that lists the information of 1 specific employee (i.e. the one clicked, as a tooltip).  How can I pass just 1 employee to my component?
I have an action that updates a property whenever someone clicks a name.  I thought to do a computed property to query the model based on that name, but I am not sure how to filter my model to return just the one employee.
actions: {
  updateProfile(person) {
    set(this, 'profile', person);
  }
}

And my computed property:
currentProfile: computed('profile', function(){
  return this.model.find('person', {'name': get(this, 'profile')});
}),

Is there a simple way to return just the 1 object I want from my model?
Solution
I needed to filter on this and not the model itself.  Then, I had to just return the firstObject, even though there was only 1 match (that was the main issue).
 currentProfile: computed('profile', function(){
    return this.filterBy('name', get(this, 'profile')).get('firstObject');
 }),

A:

Try this:
currentProfile: computed('profile', function(){
  var query = {'name': get(this, 'profile')};
  return this.model.find('person', query).then(function(people){
    return people.get('firstObject');
  });
})
