Using AutoForm:-
What is the best way to update a particular nested array object:
eg schema
People Collection
_id : 'sdlamcbye82jks',
videos:[
{_id: 'nch3434js4dwewe78', videoName:'title1'},
{_id: 'nvkjeweudksdm7838', videoName:'title2'}
]
autoform method =“update” : does not allow me to submit the Video Id to update against, only the Person Id
autoform method = “method-update” : has the same issue as update, only Person Id and Modifier
Possible solutions would be
- to use autoform method “normal”, but it feels strange to use this to reach an internal endpoint, or
- To get the values in a client event listener and then use Meteor.Call (again - seems to me like I’m not using the power of Meteor if i do this)
I have seen several other questions on this board relating to updating a nested doc, but in this case I would like to maintain the use of AutoForm in the cleanest possible fashion.
