Is it any difference between Meteor.call and Accounts.callLoginMethod?

Is it any difference between Meteor.call and Accounts.callLoginMethod (i need to replaced Accounts.callLoginMethod with Meteor.call, because with Meteor3 callback callLoginMethod is called only on error)? Is it anny difference from security reasons?

// Callback if err or success
Meteor.call('twoFactor.loginWithPassword', {
        user: selector,
        password: hashedPassword,
        method
    }, callback);

// Callback only if err
    Accounts.callLoginMethod({
         methodName: 'twoFactor.loginWithPassword',
         methodArguments: [{
             user: selector,
             password: hashedPassword,
             method
         }],
         userCallback: callback
    });

Thanks a lot.

That should not be the case

github.com

meteor/meteor/blob/2e032970bfafebc33ccc79f14499e2a329770924/packages/accounts-base/accounts_client.js#L217


      
          // optionally `tokenExpires`.
          //
          // This function takes care of:
          //   - Updating the Meteor.loggingIn() reactive data source
          //   - Calling the method in 'wait' mode
          //   - On success, saving the resume token to localStorage
          //   - On success, calling Accounts.connection.setUserId()
          //   - Setting up an onReconnect handler which logs in with
          //     the resume token
          //
          // Options:
          // - methodName: The method to call (default 'login')
          // - methodArguments: The arguments for the method
          // - validateResult: If provided, will be called with the result of the
          //                 method. If it throws, the client will not be logged in (and
          //                 its error will be passed to the callback).
          // - userCallback: Will be called with no arguments once the user is fully
          //                 logged in, or with the error on error.
          //
          callLoginMethod(options) {
            options = {

Hi @rjdavid after longer time. Thanks for your example, by the code, it must works, but after migration to 3.0.4 or 3.1 (I don’t remember, it was called callback only on error). I will try again, I will let you know.
