Cards.find() returns no cards

Wekan / General · December 26, 2020 at 11:28am (Edited 4 years ago)

Fooling around with putting together a simple My Cards implementation. However, I cannot get Cards.find() to return any cards. Boards.find() works perfectly.

cards() {
    // return [{ title: 'Card 1' }, { title: 'Card 2' }];
    const query = {
       archived: false,
       assignees: Meteor.userId(),
    };
    return Cards.find(query);
},

Is there something special that needs to be done to get Cards.find() to work?

P.S. Running the query in meteor mongo works perfectly.

Meteor.js also automatically resolves write conficts of each user

    Although, for some use cases, having manual control would in some cases improve things

        Anyway, at https://github.com/wekan/wekan/pull/3008/files that code is very similar to what My Cards feature would be like. So, instead of adding Public, you would add My Cards. Then, you would copu that Public related code, so that instead of showing Public boards, you would show My Cards, creating new publication that sends to browserside all cards that are part of your My Cards, and no other data. Then, each of those cards would have link that points to that card full address in URL, the same you see in webbrowser URL bar currently when card is opened.

          So I think, with so much already existing similar code and instructions, you should be able to add My Cards feature.

                    Usually adding some new feature is like looking at some existing feature, and adding something similar.

                      It's not like it would require reading all of Wekan code. Instead, read and add only what is required, and try does it work.

                        For translation strings, you can add new ones with pull request to wekan/i18n/en.i18n.json, other languages are translated by other translation contributors at https://transifex.com/wekan/wekan/

                          And in general, client side UI is at wekan/client/components/ , there is cards, sidebar etc. .jade files have HTML templates, .js Javasript code is related code, and .styl is CSS like styling code in stylus language
