Hi people of Meteor, I hit a wall trying to solve this.
I have publish method that sorts the collection by some criteria and also limits the amount of entries it returns.
On the client I have a load more button.
What happens is: first N entries that I get are sorted, but as soon as I click on the load more button, minimongo isn’t sorted anymore.
I read online that I’m supposed to “re-sort” the data once it hits the client, but after spending a lot of time searching for solution online I came empty handed. The fact that I’m using React is also making it a bit harder for me, as I’m kinda learning React at the same time.
Code
Server:
Meteor.publish('all_views', function(per_page) {
return Entries.find({}, {
sort: {views: -1},
limit:per_page
});
});
Client:
export default createContainer(({type, sort}) => {
console.log("createContainer should sub to: " + type + "_" + sort);
// set up subscriptions
Meteor.subscribe(type + "_" + sort, PER_PAGE);
return {entries: Entries.find({}).fetch()};
}, EntrieslList);
I hope someone can help me. I can provide more code if needed, I’d just like to arrive at solution.
Thanks!
