Good Day,
I’m trying to create a simple search function using the easy search package.
In a nutshell I have done the following-
Defined a schema and index on the client as such:
const Patients = new Mongo.Collection('patients');
const PatientsIndex = new EasySearch.Index({
collection: Patients,
fields: ['name'],
engine: new EasySearch.MongoDB()
});
I’ve entered the following values into the database:
meteor:PRIMARY> db.patients.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("57d6a9f71bad26ba07748f9d"), "name" : "Paul" }
Created a template helper on the client side:
Template.searchBox.helpers({
patientsIndex: () => PatientsIndex
});
And lastly I’ve created a template which should output the results:
<template name="searchBox">
{{> EasySearch.Input index=patientsIndex }}
<ul>
{{#EasySearch.Each index=patientsIndex }}
<li>Name of the patient: {{name}}</li>
{{/EasySearch.Each}}
</ul>
</template>
Now for some reason this just wont work, it renders nothing to the template, I’ very new to this and would really appreciate some assistance.
Thanking you.
