Is there any possibility to make meteor-autoform work with meteor-collection2-core and react-meteor?
MWE
Preferably I would like to have something like this.
./imports/api/Books.js
import { Mongo } from 'meteor/mongo';
import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema';
const Books = new Mongo.Collection("books");
Books.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema({
title: {
type: String,
label: "Title",
max: 200
},
author: {
type: String,
label: "Author"
},
}));
if (Meteor.isServer) {
Meteor.publish('allBooks', function () {
return Books.find({}, );
});
};
export default Books;
./imports/client/NewBooks.js
import React, { Component, PropTypes } from 'react';
import { createContainer } from 'meteor/react-meteor-data';
import { quickForm } from 'meteor-autoform';
import Books from '../api/Books';
class NewBooks extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
this.state = {}
}
render() {
return (
<div className="container">
<quickForm
collection={Books}
id="insertBookForm"
type="insert">
</quickForm>
</div>
)
}
};
export default createContainer(() => {
Meteor.subscribe('allBooks');
return {
books: Books.find().fetch()
}
}, NewBooks);
To my knowledge, Autoform depends heavily on Blaze, so, you could either use blaze autoform components in react (see here), or you can use a different library for this. I used this in a recent project: github.com/nicolaslopezj/simple-react-form. It's powerful, but much more 'hands-on' than the magical Autoform (you have to write your own form and field components).
