Meteor - Adding a favourite/like user accounts -


i have page display list users. current user "is_teacher" able 'like' individual users in list. likes visible teacher. thought best way add likes: string in collection , store students_id code must way off because not working. can checkout i've done let me know i'm going wrong.

path: schemas.js

schema.userprofile = new simpleschema({         likes: {             type: [string],             optional: true         }     }); 

path: sudentlist.html

<template name="studentlist">      {{#each student}}      {{#if like}}     <button class="like">unlike</button>     {{else}}     <button class="like">like</button>     {{/if}}      {{/each}}  </template> 

path: studentlist.js

template.studentlist.helpers({   like: function() {     return meteor.users.findone({likes: this._id});   } });  template.studentlist.events({   'click #like':function(event,template) {     var student = this._id;     meteor.users.update({likes: student}, {$set:{likes:!student}});   } }); 

posting answer because can't comment.

it's unclear what's going on because code bit of mess, , need bit more information "it's not working" diagnose issue.

some obvious points are:

  • your button has class (.), event bound id (#)
  • your update function odd. (to least!)
    • likes array, wouldn't use $set string
    • student string, !student false
    • presumably since schema user profiles, find/update operations should go profile.likes not likes

this guess, think event should more like:

template.studentlist.events({   'click #like':function(event,template) {     var student = this._id;     var teacher = meteor.userid();     meteor.users.update({_id: student}, {$push:{"profile.likes": teacher}});   } }); 

but it's hard because i'm not 100% sure you're trying do.
