Import variables into aurelia-dialog view-model or view -

is there way import additional variables/data dialog-service controller?

for example have array of possible options in form of app-view. fetch data via api server.

i'd edit entry aurelia-dialog , don't want fetch data again avoid unnecessary traffic in app.

how can pass array additionally model. pack in object , unwrap in controller? far know activate-method of controller takes 1 argument, doesn't it?

thank you

isn't example in repository looking for? person attribute passed dialog service via settings object (model: this.person). may data fetched server. mentioned, can of course add multiple objects model available in activate() method of dialogs vm.

import {editperson} './edit-person'; import {dialogservice} 'aurelia-dialog'; export class welcome {   static inject = [dialogservice];   constructor(dialogservice) {     this.dialogservice = dialogservice;   }   person = { firstname: 'wade', middlename: 'owen', lastname: 'watts' };   submit(){     this.dialogservice.open({ viewmodel: editperson, model: this.person}).then(response => {       if (!response.wascancelled) {         console.log('good - ', response.output);       } else {         console.log('bad');       }       console.log(response.output);     });   } }
