meteor camera package gives warning - meteor

I am using meteor camera package(https://github.com/meteor/mobile-packages/blob/master/packages/mdg:camera/README.md).
But it gives warning and do not perform capture onclick event. Could anybody help?
Here is my code:
Contact item template:
<template name="contactItem">
<div class="card-panel contacts #ffe57f amber accent-1">
<div class="row item">
<div class="col l4 image-div" id="{{number}}">
<img src="{{photo}}" class="circle responsive-img capture">
</div>
<div class="col l6">
<div class="row item">
<div class="col l12">
{{title}}
</div>
</div>
<div class="row item">
<div class="col l6">
{{#if notOwnContact}}submitted by {{author}}{{/if}}
</div>
<div class="col l2">
{{#if ownContact}}Edit{{/if}}
</div>
<div class="col l2 offset-l2">
{{#if ownContact}}{{status}}{{/if}}
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col l2 number-div">
{{number}}
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
Template.contactItem.events({
'click .capture': function(e) {
MeteorCamera.getPicture({}, function(error,data) {
var target = $(e.target);
var parent = target.parent();
var uncle = parent.siblings(".number-div");
var num = $(parent).attr('id')
//$(target).attr("scr",data);
var currentContact = Contacts.findOne({number: num});
currentContact.statusImage = data;
//currentContact.status = "public";
console.log(currentContact);
console.log(data);
});
}
});

Exactly as the warnings say: Blaze.render without a parent element and Blaze.Insert have been deprecated. This means that the package is for older versions of Meteor.
See the docs here for the latest Blaze documentation:
http://docs.meteor.com/#/full/blaze_render
That camera package you linked to hasn't been updated in a long time. If you want, you can make changes to the package by adding it as a local package and fixing up the lines of code that are causing a warning. This might also fix your problem of the photo not capturing, although that might be another issue.
I'd post an issue in the GitHub repo notifying mdg to update the package to the latest version of meteor.

Thymeleaf fragment with parameters

I am quite new to Thymeleaf, I am trying to create a fragment and pass to it a variable in my Spring MVC application but I am stuck.
My code:
<div th:replace="fragments/utilities :: reviews(message=${reviews[0].review})"></div>
My fragments/utilities.html:
<div th:fragment="reviews(message)">
<div class="carousel-item">
<div class="border border-light rounded p-4 mb-3">
<div th:replace="utilities :: stars"></div>
<p th:text="message" class="mt-2"></p>
</div>
</div>
But it isn't working, I have also tried substituting th:replace with th:insert or th:include.
Note: I know for sure that reviews[0].review isn't empty
What am I missing?
The problem is with the way you want to display message
Instead of
<p th:text="message" class="mt-2"></p>
Try to use
<p th:text="${message}" class="mt-2"></p>

Use a helper to set a css class

I need to make reactive a class inside a const (exported from a module).
export const messageControls = '
<div id="controls"">
<i id="idcont" class="{{starred}}"></i>
</div>
'
This class belongs to an HTML block who's inserted as innerHTML of a createElement.
var newElement = document.createElement('div');
newElement.id = i._id;
newElement.className = "single_message";
newElement.innerHTML = messageControls;
document.getElementById('conversation_details').appendChild(newElement);
The {{helper}} below is not rendering anything :
starred: function () {
return 'bob';
},
<i id="idcont" class="{{starred}}"></i> gives {{starred}} in plain text
<i id="idcont" class=" ' + {{starred}} + ' "></i> breaks all
Any idea?

You're trying to inject spacebars template markup directly into the DOM but meteor-blaze wants to use spacebars to build the DOM. It doesn't watch the DOM for arbitrary changes and then make template substitutions inside of it!
You can instead use Meteor's reactivity to automatically insert new items into the DOM for you based on changes to the underlying data. In your case it looks like you're trying to show the details of a message that's been clicked on. You probably have a template event handler already to catch the click. In that template handler you can set a Session variable which indicates which message is currently selected and then use that Session variable inside the helper that renders the message details.
For example:
<template name="inbox">
<div class="searchmessages">
<input type="text" name="searchmessages" id="searchmessages" placeholder="  any word / any date">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-4 l-O list_messages">
<div id="gridreceived" class="gridmessages">
{{#each incoming_all}}
<div id="{{_id}}" class="item {{readornot}}">
// render summary of each message
</div>
{{/each}}
</div>
<div class="grid_nomatch">{{grid_noresult}}</div>
{{#with selectedMessage}}
<div id="conversation_details" class="col-xs-8" media="print">
// render selected message details
</div>
{{/with}}
</div>
</template>
Your js:
Template.inbox.events({
'click .item'(ev) {
Session.set('selectedMessageId',this._id);
}
});
Template.inbox.helpers({
selectedMessage() {
return Messages.findOne(Session.get('selectedMessageId'));
}
});
Now to your follow-up question about how to reactively style an element. Let's say your message* object has aisStarredboolean key. In the message detail section we've set the data context using{{#with currentMessage}}` so any key of the current message can be used directly in our spacebars template. Where you are displaying the message details you can do:
<div id="controls"">
<i id="idcont" class="{{#if isStarred}}starred{{/if}}"></i>
</div>
Depending on whether or not the message is starred this will render as class="" or class="starred".

How to show images in a gridview after iterating over a list of Url's in asp.net MVC5?

I have the following code in my View.
#model MovieApp.Models.HomeIndexViewModel
#foreach (var item in Model.Movies)
{
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-4">
<img src=item.posterPath id="picture1" class="img-responsive" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
I retrieve the image Url's on item.Posterpath as a string.
When I try to add my Url's on item.PosterPath as <img src=item.posterPath id="picture1" class="img-responsive"/>I can see that the item is not in scope.
My question is how i should iterate over my Model to stay in the scope and retrieve my paths?
have you tried src="#item.posterPath" ?

Rename multiple css with identical name

I'm working inside a templated system where i can implement code, but i can't modified the core of the file. My layer are stacked like this:
<div class="layer1">
<div class="layer2">
<div class=" layer3">
<div class="layer4">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="layer1">
<div class="layer2">
<div class=" layer3">
<div class="layer4">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="layer1">
<div class="layer2">
<div class=" layer3">
<div class="layer4">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
As you can see, my class all have the same name (layer1, layer2, etc...). I want to know if there's a way by using Javascript, Jquery or any other online client side library to modify the CSS class name so, for example, the first layer1 become level1 and the following layer1 become level 2?
Thank for your answer!
As other people already said, jQuery actually does what you want.
As long as you don't know the number of “layers” you have, you better find all elements by classname substring:
$('*[class^="layer"]')
Then you can get the list of the element classes and change old names to new ones.
Many different ways to do this:
Solution 1:
Use addClass() and removeClass()
$(".layer1").removeClass('old_class').addClass('new_class');
Replace old_class with your older class and new_class with your new class
Solution 2:
If you are able to get the element by ID
You can set the class by using .attr()
$("#id").attr('class', 'new_class');
an all around solution working with className :
var elem=document.querySelectorAll('[class^="layer"]') ;
for(i in elem){
x = elem[i].className;
var y=x.replace("layer" , "level");
elem[i].className=y||x;
}

Can Meteor handle nested views?

I'm learning meteor, and finding all kinds of difficulties dealing with nested subviews. Since the application I want to write is full of them... that looks like a difficulty. I found this on github, as a readme for a Meteor project to try and deal with this problem.
"I've been playing around with Meteor for a couple weeks. The ease of setup and the powerful reactivity makes this something I want to stick with. I was however frustrated by the difficulty of programmatically configuring, instantiating, destroying and nesting subviews."
Is this an issue that can be handled in Meteor (without adding a lot of complicated work arounds) or should I look for a different platform ?
I love nesting templates. I get reliable results. I now program off a library of both templates and helper functions (usually for form elements) that compose html for me. HTML is a byproduct, and the files we call .html are really a javascript DSL.
There are many S.O. issues raised about insertions into sorted lists giving people problems. I haven't had time to look.
My rule of thumb: Meteor is (well) designed from the beginning to do this easily and reliably.
So far the harder thing to solve was when I added an accordion from foundation, and a refresh of the document led to its initial state (being all closed, or one open). I had to put code in that saved the current section, and code to re-assert that in the rendered callback for the template that used it.
Why not write a prototype of the nesting with just a field or two in places, and find what bothers you?
Here is a sample chain. You see all the nested templates. This template itself is running within multiple.
First template: called 'layout', suggested by iron router. Has basic page and menu. Main body is a yield, set by router. On a sample page, a route calls template 'availability'
<template name='availability'>
{{#each myAgents}}
<form class="custom" id="Agent_{{_id}}" action="">
<div id='availability' class="section-container accordion" data-section="accordion">
<section id="services">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Your Info
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>services}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="skills">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Skills
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>skills}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="sureties">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Sureties
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>sureties}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="time">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Time Available
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>time}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="schedule1">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Schedule 1
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>schedule}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="schedule2">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Schedule 2
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>schedule}}
</div>
</section>
<section id="distance">
<p class="title" data-section-title><a href="#">
Distance
</a></p>
<div class="content" data-section-content>
{{>distance}}
</div>
</section>
</div>
</form>
{{/each}}
</template>
sample further nest:
<template name='services'>
{{label_text fname='name' title='Agent Name' placeholder='Formal Name' collection='agent' passthrough='autofocus=autofocus ' }}
{{label_text fname='agentInCharge' title='Agent In Charge' placeholder='Owner' collection='agent' }}
{{label_text fname='phone' title='Phone Number(s)' placeholder='Include Area Code'collection='agent' }}
{{>gps }}
<h4>Not shared:</h4>
{{label_text fname='email' title='Email:' placeholder='you remain anonymous' collection='agent' }}
</template>
and label_text is a helper, learned from the https://github.com/mcrider/azimuth project:
generateField = (options) ->
options.hash.uniqueId = options.hash.fieldName + "_" + Math.random().toString(36).substring(7) if options.hash.template is "wysiwyg"
options.hash.id = options.hash.id or #_id
options.hash.value = options.hash.value or this[options.hash.fname]
# allow for simple params as default
options.hash.title = options.hash.title or options.hash.fname
options.hash.template = options.hash.template or "label_text"
options.hash.placeholder = options.hash.placeholder or options.hash.title
# compatible with old
options.hash.fieldName = options.hash.fieldname or options.hash.fname
options.hash.label = options.hash.label or options.hash.title
# FIXME: Return error if type not valid template
new Handlebars.SafeString(Template[options.hash.template](options.hash))
Handlebars.registerHelper "label_text", (options) ->
options.hash.collection = options.hash.collection or 'generic'
generateField.call this, options
I am fairly new to Meteor, but I found out really soon that I wanted nested views (aka dynamic includes or sub-templates). I'm not sure whether this is what you mean, but here is my solution.
I created the following handlebars helper, that can be used to create sub-templates:
Handlebars.registerHelper('subTemplate', function(container, property, context, options) {
if (container && container.hasOwnProperty(property)) {
var subTemplate = container[property];
if (typeof subTemplate === 'function') {
return new Handlebars.SafeString(subTemplate(context || this));
}
else if (typeof subTemplate === 'string') {
return new Handlebars.SafeString(Template[subTemplate](context || this));
}
}
});
It can be used inside something I call a generic template. For example to create a list:
<template name="item_list">
<ul class="items-list">
{{#each items}}
<li class="listview-item">
{{subTemplate .. 'listItem' this}}
</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>
</template>
Now invoking this generic template requires that a 'listItem' property is present within its context. This can be either a string with the name of the sub-template, or the inline definition of a sub-template. The example below shows both options:
<template name="my_list">
{{! First option, referring to the sub-template by name:}}
<div>
{{#with listData listItem="my_list_item"}}
{{> item_list}}
{{/with}}
</div>
{{! Second option, inlining the sub-template:}}
<div>
{{#with listData}}
{{#assignPartial 'listItem'}}
<span>{{name}}</span>
{{/assignPartial}}
{{> item_list}}
{{/with}}
</div>
</template>
<template name="my_list_item">
<span>{{name}}</span>
</template>
Template.my_list.listData = function() {
return {
items: collections.people.find()
};
};
The second option requires an extra handlebars helper.
Handlebars.registerHelper('assignPartial', function(prop, options) {
this[prop] = options.fn;
return '';
});
I made more of these kinds of useful helpers, at some point I will probably share them on GitHub.
