# Outlet
The `Outlet` component should be used to wrap *every* ember `{{outlet}}`. It
provides/will provide functionality (along with the `<Route />` component)
for setting and announcing the title of the page, passing data down through
the route/template hierarchy, automatic orchestration of nested routing and
visual animating/transitioning between routes.
## Arguments
| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | `String` | `undefined` | The name of the route in ember routeName format e.g. `dc.services.index`. This is generally the `routeName` variable that is available to you in all Consul UI route/page level templates.|
| `model` | `Object` | `undefined` | Arbitrary hash of data to pass down to the child route (available in the `<Route as |route|>` export). |
```hbs
<Outlet
@name={{routeName}}
@model={{hash
dc=(hash
Name="dc-1"
)
}}
>
{{outlet}}
</Outlet>
```
Currently, using the `<Outlet />` component means that every single page/route
template is wrapped in a HTML `<section>` element. This `<section>` element
has various data attributes attached to indiciate the loading state of the
outlet. These can be used to specifically target every individual outlet via
CSS.
## Attributes
| Data Attribute | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `data-outlet` | The name of this outlet in ember routeName format e.g. `dc.services.index` |
| `data-route` | The name of the current child route of this outlet in ember routeName format e.g. `dc.services.show` |
| `data-state` | The current state of this outlet, `idle` or `loading` |
| `data-transition` | A combination of `idle` and `loading` states |
