Query in Meteor-MongoDb

1

Hello fellow coders

I am trying to write a query to get a single entity from a collection , find or findOne is not working as I am getting all the documents in the collection when I query but when i write the same query through command prompt I am able to see that particular document.

import { Template } from 'meteor/templating’
import { Session } from ‘meteor/session’;
import { RegisterDetails} from '…/imports/api/registerdetails.js’
import ‘…/imports/ui/login.html’;
import ‘…/imports/ui/register.html’;

if (Meteor.isClient) {

Template.body.helpers({
showRegister() {
return Session.get(‘showRegister’);
}
});

Template.login.events({
‘click button’(event, data) {
var user = data.find("#usernameInput").value;
var pass = data.find("#passwordInput").value;
console.log(JSON.stringify(RegisterDetails.findOne(RegisterDetails.username)));

},
'click .js-show-register'(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  Session.set('showRegister', true);
}

});

Template.register.events({
‘click button’(event, data) {
var firstname = data.find("#firstnameInput").value;
var lastname = data.find("#lastnameInput").value;
var username = data.find("#usernameInput").value;
var password = data.find("#passwordInput").value;
var repeatPassword = data.find("#repeatpasswordInput").value;
if(password === repeatPassword) {
var storePassword = password;
} else {
alert(“Password did not match”);
}
var role = data.find("#roleOption").value;

  if(storePassword) {
    RegisterDetails.insert({
      firstname,
      lastname,
      role,
      username,
      storePassword,
      createdAt: new Date()
    });
  }
},
'click .js-show-login'(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  Session.set('showRegister', false);
}

});

}

As mentioned in the above code , I am trying to query the username and password field (shown in Bold and Italics).

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Are you sure that this is what you want to do?
For this to work, your client needs to have a subscription to the RegisterDetails collection - and would need every record in there. It looks like you’re trying to search a collection for the username input in the form. That will only work if the client has the entire collection local. (Unless I am misreading what you’re doing here).

It would be best to use Meteor.call() on the client with a Meteor.method() on the server to do the query.
