Hello I tried to ask this on StackOverflow but got no answer.
Surprised as well I couldn’t find much on the subject. I would like to know what is the best way to retrieve from a Collection A something from Collection B via an array of _id.
Here’s my question on StackOverflow : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38444176/using-transform-function-in-new-mongo-collection-that-uses-other-collection-alwa
Thank you in advance.
As long as “outside of MongoDB” means “inside of Meteor”, you could look at reywood:publish-composite.
Thank you, this seems to work.
I thought this would be doable without a package.
Is this the normal way to do it? Or is it better to store the whole Collection B item in the Collection A (having an array of Collection B item instead of _ids)? This would require hooks on the Collection B to update the items in the arrays of Collection A on Update Delete…
