Currently, I am attempting to extract an array from a different collection using collection2. So far, I have managed to accomplish this with objects, as demonstrated in the example below for users:
users: {
type: String,
label: "Inspector",
optional: true,
autoform: {
firstOption: 'Choose an Inspector',
options: function() {
return Meteor.users.find({}, {
sort: {
profile: 1,
firstName: 1
}
}).map(function(c) {
return {
label: c.profile.firstName + " " + c.profile.lastName,
value: c._id
};
});
}
}
},Now, I am looking to achieve a similar outcome but for an array of objects. Here is an example of the source data structure:
{
"_id": "xDkso4FXHt63K7evG",
"AboveGroundSections": [{
"sectionName": "one"
}, {
"sectionName": "two"
}],
"AboveGroundItems": [{
"itemSection": "one",
"itemDescription": "dfgsdfg",
"itemCode": "dsfgsdg"
}, {
"itemSection": "two",
"itemDescription": "sdfgsdfg",
"itemCode": "sdfgsdgfsd"
}]
}Here is a snippet of what my function currently contains:
agSection: {
type: String,
optional: true,
autoform: {
firstOption: 'Select A Section Type',
options: function() {
return TemplateData.find({}, {
sort: {
AboveGroundSections: 1,
sectionName: [0]
}
}).map(function(c) {
return {
label: c.AboveGroundSections.sectionName,
value: c.AboveGroundSections.sectionName
}
});
}
}
},Although I understand the concept, I am facing difficulties in fetching the desired data. I am positive that I might be overlooking a minor detail. My goal is to retrieve all objects within the AboveGroundSection array.
