$meteor.subscribe / $scope.$meteorSubscribe

$meteor.subscribe / $scope.$meteorSubscribe has been deprecated in favor of the new subscribe syntax.

A service which is a wrapper for Meteor.subscribe. It subscribes to a Meteor.publish method in the client and returns a AngularJS promise when ready.

Calling $scope.$meteorSubscribe will automatically stop the subscription when the scope is destroyed.

Old code

$meteor.subscribe(name, publisherArguments)

$scope.$meteorSubscribe(name, publisherArguments)

New code

This would require the angular-meteor-promiser package to work.

$promiser.subscribe(name, publisherArguments)

Arguments

Returns

Example

//Define new Meteor Mongo Collections
Todos = new Mongo.Collection('todos');
Books = new Mongo.Collection('books');

if (Meteor.isClient) {

  app.controller("mainCtrl", ['$scope', '$meteor',
    function($scope, $meteor){

      $meteor.subscribe('todos').then(function(subscriptionHandle){
        // Bind all the todos to $scope.todos
        $scope.todos = $meteor.collection(Todos);

        console.log($scope.todos + ' is ready');

        // You can use the subscription handle to stop the subscription if you want
        subscriptionHandle.stop();
      });

      $scope.$meteorSubscribe('books', {onStop: notifyUser}).then(function(subscriptionHandle){
        // Bind all the books to $scope.books
        $scope.books = $meteor.collection(Books);

        console.log($scope.books + ' is ready');

        // No need to stop the subscription, it will automatically close on scope destroy
      });

      ////////////

      function notifyUser(err) {
        if (err)
          alert(err.reason);
        else
          alert('Books subscription was stopped.');
      }
    }
  ]);
}

if (Meteor.isServer) {

  Meteor.publish('todos', function(){
    return Todos.find({});
  });

  Meteor.publish('books', function(){
    return Books.find({});
  });
