I'm trying to remove the label in schema. Every time I set it to false it errors or does nothing.
Schema.User = new SimpleSchema({
classifications: {
type: Schema.Classification,
optional: true,
label: false
}
});
label is a string. Either set it to a string or omit it from your schema:
Schema.User = new SimpleSchema({
classifications: {
type: Schema.Classification,
optional: true
}
});

I am trying to build a kind of specific simple schema for a collection and i would like to make sure that :
when the user enter a new select in my selectsCollection, he will put one of the options value as selected value.
For example:
SelectsCollection.insert({name:"SelectOne",deviceType:"Select",options:["option1","option2","option3"],value:"option4",description:"This is the first select"});
this do not have to work. I want him to write only one of the 3 options.
Here my schema :
SelectsCollection = new Mongo.Collection('Selects'); //Create a table
SelectsSchema = new SimpleSchema({
name:{
type: String,
label:"Name",
unique:true
},
deviceType:{
type: String,
allowedValues: ['Select'],
label:"Type of Device"
},
options:{
type: [String],
minCount:2,
maxcount:5,
label:"Select Values"
},
value:{
type: String,
//allowedValues:[options] a kind of syntax
// or allowedValues:function(){ // some instructions to retrieve the array of string of the option field ?}
label:"Selected Value"
},
description:{
type: String,
label:"Description"
},
createdAt:{
type: Date,
label:"Created At",
autoValue: function(){
return new Date()
}
}
});
SelectsCollection.attachSchema(SelectsSchema);
Any Idea ? :)
Thanks a lot !
This could be done with custom validation function of a field, inside this function you could retrieve values from other fields:
SelectsSchema = new SimpleSchema({
// ...
options: {
type: [String],
minCount: 2,
maxcount: 5,
label: "Select Values"
},
value: {
label: "Selected Value",
type: String,
optional: true,
custom() {
const options = this.field('options').value
const value = this.value
if (!value) {
return 'required'
}
if (options.indexOf(value) === -1) {
return 'notAllowed'
}
}
},
// ...
});

I'm working on a project which I start with using autoValue as
Programs.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema({
createdBy: {
type: String,
autoValue: function() {
return this.userId
},
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: 'hidden'
}
},
createdAt: {
type: Date,
label: "Created At",
defaultValue: new Date(),
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: 'hidden'
}
}
}));
everything works find until I need to update the information by other users, let's say admin, Programs.update or Programs.insert methods will change the email field.
I tried to use defaultValue for createdBy field but
defaultValue: this.userId
return me null
and i'm not allowed to use
defaultValue: Meteor.userId()
Can anyone explain the difference? I tried use function() {return this.userId} for defaultValue which still got no luck
defaultValue is used by simple-schema for defining default value. There are some quirks so read the docs: https://github.com/aldeed/meteor-simple-schema#defaultvalue
Think of when the code is ran and you will understand why you can't use Meteor.userId() or this.userId for defaultValue. The schema is ran once at startup.
What allows autoValue to work is that it returns a function. The function is ran during db updates/inserts. Read over the docs to fully understand it: https://github.com/aldeed/meteor-simple-schema#autovalue
Now, if I understand your question properly, you have issues with autoValue when an admin comes along and modifies the document? Causing the createdBy to be set to the admin's id? To solve something like that, you just need to be more specific with your autoValue function.
See if this code helps guide you in the proper direction:
Programs.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema({
createdBy: {
type: String,
autoValue: function() {
if (this.isInsert) {
return this.userId;
} else if (this.isUpsert) {
return { $setOnInsert: this.userId };
}
this.unset(); // Prevent user from supplying their own value
return undefined;
},
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: 'hidden'
}
},
createdAt: {
type: Date,
label: 'Created At',
defaultValue: new Date(),
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: 'hidden'
},
autoValue: function() {
if (this.isInsert) {
return new Date();
} else if (this.isUpsert) {
return { $setOnInsert: new Date() };
}
this.unset(); // Prevent user from supplying their own value
return undefined;
},
}
}));
You should try this snippet,
new SimpleSchema({
// ...
createdBy: {
autoValue() {
return Meteor.userdId();
}
}
// ...
})
Now the explanation, Your problem is more likely related with the this binding, this.userId, was called from SimpleSchema context in this way this does not have any userId() method, you should use the full namespace in this case Meteor.userId();
A very cool explanation on this binding I recommend you to read

I am trying to use autoValue in my schema
Posts.schema = new SimpleSchema({
title: { type: String },
description: { type: String },
posted: { type: Date,
autoValue: function (){
return new Date;
},
},
likes: { type: Number, defaultValue: 0, optional: true },
dislikes: { type: Number, defaultValue: 0, optional: true, },
author: { type: AuthorSchema },
votes: { type: [AuthorSchema], optional: true }
});
Posts.attachSchema(Posts.schema);
I am using this schema for validations here:
export const addPost = new ValidatedMethod({
name: 'Posts.addPost',
validate: Posts.schema.validator(),
run(post) {
if (!this.userId)
throw new Meteor.Error('403', 'You must be logged-in to reply');
Posts.simpleSchema().clean(post);
Posts.insert({
title: post.title,
description: post.description,
author: {
userId: this.userId,
vote: 0
}
});
}
});
It does not work. I get an error message
Posted is required [validation-error]
Am i doing something wrong? Do i need to make Posted field optional?
I tried to change the insert method by providing default value for posted: new Date(). Did not work either. Please help.
Fixed it by calling validator with { clean : true, filter : false }
Here is code used in simpleschema definition.I tried to use the similar one in my project but as you can see it is not working.
{
items:{
type: Array,
optional: true,
minCount: 0,
maxCount: 5
},
"items.$": {
type: Object,
optional: true
},
"items.$.name": {
type: Date,
optional: true,
autoform: {
afFieldInput: {
type: "bootstrap-datetimepicker"
}
}
}
}
I was facing the issue because of some bug in autoform-datetimepicker Api.
I added the following line of code under autoform-bs-datepicker.js
`
this.autorun(function () {
var data = Template.currentData();
**if(!data.value)
data.value=$('#'+data.atts.id).val();**`
Can any one tell me why this work in meteor:
"landTenancyType" : {
type: String,
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: "selectize",
options: function(){
return [
{label: "Joint", value: "Joint"},
{label: "Tenancy In Common", value: "Tenancy In Common"}
]
}
}
}
but this does not work:
"landTenancyType" : {
type: String,
optional: true,
autoform: {
type: "selectize",
options: function(){
return Categories.find().map(function(obj) {
console.log(obj);
return { label: obj.name, value: obj.name };
});
}
}
}
All the necessary publish and subscribe are working. Console does also show that values are coming from the collection. However a blank selectize ui is killing me. If i change type: "selectize", to type: "select", the select list is populated but i do not have the selectize goodness i need. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
By the way I am using meteor with autoform 5.0 and comerc:autoform-selectize.
I think the problem is in this line:
Categories.find().map(function(obj)
find returns a cursor, you could do find().fetch() to get an array. Then map would work on that array.
Can you return object wittin another objects from a function ? A function will always return a single entity (either single value or single object). Please re-check your code's following section:
options: function(){
return Categories.find().map(function(obj) {
console.log(obj);
return { label: obj.name, value: obj.name };
});
}
