The following method:
getDocBasic: function(docId) {
var doc = Docs.findOne({ _id: docId}, { 'company.name' : 1 })
console.log(doc);
return doc;
}
Gives me an object (doc
) with the entire document in it (rather than just the company.name
). So it seems the projection isn’t working at all. From what I can gather from the mongo docs this is unexpected. Meteor bug?
Edit: As soon as I ask I find the answer - syntax was incorrect: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15961456/meteor-collection-find-always-returns-all-fields
getDocBasic: function(docId) {
var doc = Docs.findOne({ _id: docId}, {fields: { 'company.name' : 1 }})
console.log(doc);
return doc;
}
