@shwaydogg I will explain the issue again because it is subject to many interpretations.
I have a userForm template. This template do not have fields for all fields in the user object. But the User Astro class has all the fields of the user mongo db object with the exception of the field _id.
When I fill the form to create a new user, the template.data.user object (reactive var) does not bring the information I input". The input fields come empty. On edition it brings the old values, not the changes.

loving astronomy so far btw
BTW, how are you testing the code? Are you?
I think it now it is better explained
thank you
Hi Jagi, First off, you're work is AMAZING! You're so talented and I've been really enjoying working with Astronomy. Everything is going well and I'm in awe of your work. I'm having difficulty creating a relations. I've followed the documentation to the letter. I've read and re-read the documentation and even the source code. For some reason, my relations is always Null. I tried a very simple relation. Here is a small snippet:
DelegateId: {
type: 'string',
default:''
},
Delegate: {
type: 'string',
default:'',
transient: true
},
relations: {
delegate: {
type: 'one',
class: 'Contact',
local: 'DelegateId',
foreign: '_id'
}
},
My class Task has a DelegateId that relates to a Contact table's _id field. It can't get any easier. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
i have an issue while saving
will get an error called
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '_clearModifiers' of nul
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '_clearModifiers' of nul
i guess some issue in structure i have created but not able to figure it out :-(
I am having a issue with SimpleSchema and Collection2 and I am looking at alternatives (such as astronomy) to maybe fix the issue. I have a MongoDB that is populated mainly by sources outside of Meteor, but the UI does allow a user to add to the collection (using autoform package for that). The problem is that the external sources uses Mongo.ObjectId() and Meteor uses string for _id. How do I change Meteor to use ObjectId? Can SimpleSchema handle that? If not, can Astronomy do it and how do I go about getting that done?
I'm not sure this will help you
@Manjukb I don't get it
Vermongo seems to be a tool that creates a old copy of documents in a database? How is that going to solve my problem?
@cyrus-za you first create your collection passing in the idGeneration option:
MyCollection = new Mongo.Collection('mycollection', {idGeneration: 'MONGO'});and then use either simple-schema/collection2 or astronomy at will. Neither should complain.
But beware of the Meteor.users collection which, by default always uses STRING id's and you cannot change that meteor/meteor#1834
i have a nested class which is generated dynamically
i want to give different validation param
how can i do this

{code}
var createContactAstroClass = function createContactAstroClass(name, defaultType) {
return Astro.Class({
name: name,
fields: {
type: {
type: "string",
default: defaultType || "personal"
},
value: {
type: "string",
}
}
});
};
return Astro.Class({
name: name,
fields: {
type: {
type: "string",
default: defaultType || "personal"
},
value: {
type: "string",
}
}
});
};
If I use this:
var app = new App();
Template.XXX.helpers({
app() { return app; }
});and later on I change app with set()... then validate() and then save()... things in the template are not-reactive:
This won't update {{app.url}} if coming from that helper, even if it's saved in Minimongo via save().If I want it to be reactive, I have to change the helper to something like:
Template.XXX.helpers({
app() { return Apps.findOne(_id); }
});with the _id of the previously saved app object.
Do you have plans to make a new Astro object reactive by itself without having to change it for a Minimongo query after saving?
Hi everyone, trying to get my head around astronomy and replace my verbose UserProfile code. Pasted in the example User = Astro.Class({
name: 'User',
collection: Meteor.users, ......... and it is telling me Error: The "collection" property has to be an instance of the "Mongo.Collection" in the "User" Does anyone have any info on this, perhaps a work-around? Thanks
name: 'User',
collection: Meteor.users, ......... and it is telling me Error: The "collection" property has to be an instance of the "Mongo.Collection" in the "User" Does anyone have any info on this, perhaps a work-around? Thanks
Sorry, getting confused.... I think this is related to the accounts package not being installed in the astro example. As you were :-)
