Trying to get data from MongoDB to React

1

Hello guys, I’m really fresh on Meteor and I’m trying to retrieve some data from db and access it and display on React. I have a initial data that is loaded when Meteor.startup and then I’m trying to access it using withTracker and Subscribe. Here’s the project: https://github.com/fboechats/Pathable-Challenge

You need to add a Meteor.publish call on your server side somewhere.

You’re subscribing in App.jsx, but that subscription isn’t defined anywhere.

3

That’s only if you truly need reactivity in your data client side. Otherwise, simply fetch them through a Meteor.call / Meteor.methods

Here’s a very small template CRUD application designed to illustrate how Meteor and React work together:

There are links to several screencasts at the end that walk you through various aspects of the application.

I tried to publish it after a loaded my data, but still doesn’t work. Now it’s returning undefined instead of the empty array.

Try this sample of a basic chat React + Mongo. You can see how to publish and subscribe data sources https://github.com/massimosgrelli/meteor-react-chat-test
