Meteor.loggingIn() equivalent about simpleddp HOT 4 CLOSED

@odesey

Meteor.user() will retrieve logged in user document from meteor's user collection, I guess what you are looking for is creating a reactive object after user is logged in:

based on the previous example, after successful auth, you will have access to server.userId, you can then create a reactive object like so:

if (server.userId) {
  let userReactiveCursor = server.collection('users').filter(user=>user.id==server.userId).reactive().one();
  let userReactiveObject = userReactiveCursor.data(); // userReactiveObject is equivalent to `Meteor.user()`
}

from simpleddp.

According to docs, simpleDDP.login(auth) the function returns a Promise which resolves to the object with userId of the logged-in user when the login succeeds or rejects when it fails.

Here is an example:

server.userId; // undefined, we are not logged in

let password = "somepassword";
let username = "admin";
let email = "admin@admin";

// you must pass password and at least one of username or email
let userAuth = await server.login({
  password,
  user: {
      username,
      email
  }
});

server.userId; // now equals to 'd6PqCAKk2QZeqZHWy'
server.token; // now equals to 'N50Gmknk__geP63YD9pHKdl07b8XXxNGpB_cz5Lte4d'

Hope this helps

Thanks for the quick response @DeanKamali

So I guess I will have to implement my own Meteor.user() subscription or method in order to get the user's data once they are logged in?

Thanks.
