Salert gives success message even when I catched an erro

hi gurus,

So I am trying to write my code sync style

So not Async like this (my code from yesterday for deleting an app

 //DELETE APP
            if (event.target.className === "deleteApp") {
                console.log('delete app clicked: ' + currentApp.qDocName);
                Meteor.call('deleteApp', this.qDocId, (error, result) => {
                        if (error) {
                            sAlert.error(error);
                            console.log(error);
                        } else {
                            console.log('app removed');
                            sAlert.success("APP " + currentApp.qDocName + " deleted in the QMC");
                            updateSenseInfo();

                        }
                    }) //method call 
           

to sync version

//Copy APP
            if (event.target.className === "copyApp") {                
                console.log('Copy app clicked: ' + currentApp.qDocName);
                try {
                    Meteor.call('copyAppSelectedCustomers', currentApp); //contains QVF guid of the current iteration over the apps
                } catch (err) {
                    throw new Meteor.Error('Copy app failed', err.message);
                }
                sAlert.success("QVF '" + currentApp.qDocName + " copied in the QMC");
                updateSenseInfo();

            }

Problem is that I see the success message even when the error is thrown. Is this a situation in which I need to use the async await pattern?

any ideas?

BTW: do you understand why they don’t use try catch in the todo example app?

Even if I try this, the error is show in the client console.log but nu on the screen, there I get the green success message

 //Copy APP
            if (event.target.className === "copyApp") {
                console.log('Copy app clicked: ' + currentApp.qDocName);

                Meteor.call('copyAppSelectedCustomers', currentApp); //contains QVF guid of the current iteration over the apps    
                sAlert.success("QVF '" + currentApp.qDocName + " copied in the QMC");
                updateSenseInfo();

            }

server method

 copyAppSelectedCustomers(currentApp) { //the app the user clicked on        
        check(currentApp, Object);
        customers = Customers.find({ checked: true }); //all selected customers
        check(customers);

        customers
            .forEach(customer => {
                Meteor.call('copyApp', currentApp.qDocId, customer.name + '-' + currentApp.qDocName);
            });
    },

Apperently you have to

  • Use a callback
  • use the await async es7 way
