Meteor React JS

This package is based on the @meteorrn/core package for React Native. Some little adjustments to make it work in the browser. All credits for the awesome work should go to the maintainers of the original package for React Native. Feel free to comment, contribute and fix. A hook version called Meteor.useTracker is also available.

A set of packages allowing you to connect your React app to your Meteor server, and take advantage of Meteor-specific features like accounts, reactive data trackers, etc. Compatible with the latest version of React.

Basic Usage

import Meteor from 'meteor-react-js';

// "mycol" should match the name of the collection on your meteor server
let MyCol = new Meteor.Mongo.Collection('mycol');

// Note the /websocket after your URL
Meteor.connect('wss://myapp.meteor.com/websocket'); 

class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    let { myThing } = this.props;

    return (
      <div>
        <span>Here is the thing: {myThing.name}</span>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

let AppContainer = Meteor.withTracker(() => {
  Meteor.subscribe('myThing');
  let myThing = MyCol.findOne();

  return {
    myThing,
  };
})(App);

export default AppContainer;

Custom hooks

There are also custom hooks for managing subscriptions and calling Meteor methods implemented.

Meteor.usePublication

const [data, loading] = Meteor.usePublication({
  name: 'publication.name',
  params: { id: _id },
  fetch: () => MyCol.findOne({ _id: id }),
});

Meteor.useMethod

const { result, loading } = Meteor.useMethod('method.name', { id: _id });
