$meteorUtils

A service which contains helpful utilities for angular-meteor applications

$meteor.autorun / $scope.$meteorAutorun has been deprecated in favor of the autorun API.

In the previous version of Angular-Meteor we wrapped Meteor’s autorun method, but now we put that wrapper on your context (controllerAs or $scope).

Angular-Meteor will also automatically stop the autorun when the $scope is destroyed.

Here is an example for how to migrate:

Old code:

angular.module(`myApp`, []).controller(`MyCtrl`, function($scope) {
  $scope.meteorAutorun(function() {

  });
});

New Code:

Example using $scope:

angular.module(`myApp`, []).controller(`MyCtrl`, function($scope) {
  $scope.autorun(function() {

  });
});

Example using controllerAs and components:

angular.module(`myApp`, []).directive(`myComponent`, function() {
  return {
    restrict: `E`,
    controllerAs: `myCtrl`,
    controller: function($scope, $reactive) {
      $reactive(this).attach($scope);
      this.autorun(function() {

      });
    }
  };
});

Example using angular2now and ReactiveComponent:

let {Component} = angular2now;
angular.module(`myApp`);

@Component({selector: `my-component`})
class myComponent extends ReactiveComponent {
  constructor() {
    super(arguments);
    this.autorun(function() {

    });
  }
}

Usage

$meteor.autorun( :scope, :function );  /  $scope.$meteorAutorun( :function );

$meteor.getCollectionByName( :collectionName );

Methods

autorun( :scope, :function )

$scope.$meteorAutorun( :function )

Wrapper function to Meteor's Tracker.autorun.

Keeps the changes in Angular's scope context and closes the autorun when scope automatically destroys.

The two types of syntax works the same way.

Parameters
