Meteor-autoform: Exception in defer callback: TypeError: "data is null"

Repo: https://github.com/janat08/meteorShoppingCart

Using meteor collections2, I can’t get autoform to show. I get error: Exception in template helper: lookup (very long stack trace), and then Exception in defer callback: TypeError: "data is null".

productForm.js

import './productForm.html';
import { Products, pSchema } from '/imports/api/products/products.js';

productForm.html

<template name="productForm">
  {{> quickForm collection="Products" id="insertProductsForm" type="insert"}}
</template>

products.js


import { Mongo } from 'meteor/mongo';
import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema';
import { Tracker } from 'meteor/tracker';
SimpleSchema.extendOptions(['autoform']);

const Products = new Mongo.Collection('products');

const pSchema = new SimpleSchema({
    title: {
        type: String,
        label: "Title",
        max: 100
    },
    description: {
        type: String,
        label: "Description",
        max: 500,
    },
    price: {
        type: Number,
        label: "Price",
        min: 0
    },
    Images: {
        type: Date,
        label: "Last date this book was checked out",
        optional: true
    },
}, { tracker: Tracker })

Products.attachSchema(pSchema)

export {Products, pSchema}

I think the issue was with the bug https://github.com/meteor/meteor/issues/10805

janat08 · December 1, 2019, 10:43am

It’s not that issue.

marc85 · January 29, 2020, 9:42am

Hi,
I run into the same problem. Did you ever fixed this?
Thanks!

jkuester · January 29, 2020, 5:02pm

I can just highly suggest to avoid any type other than “normal” and handle the insert or update logic yourself.

janat08 · January 30, 2020, 1:49am

I think it was default value or something like that.
