As part of the release process we'll update docs and all active
examples (other/unfinished examples can be updated as necessary). eg, first to
0.6.1-rc1, etc, and then to 0.6.1 when that is tagged from rc.
For now, the old names still work as well.
This includes:
- Meteor.isServer/isClient
- this.isSimulation in methods
- Context.onInvalidate
- Meteor.status().retryCount/retryTime
Remove old backwards-compatibility "Sky" alias for "Meteor".
Update all examples in the docs to use camelCase.
Delete unused docs/client/projects.html file.
Otherwise the list is too long, and the add points button is not visible by default. You can't just add a limit statement, because observe will not work with limit.
The new Collection API separates query handles from result sets. It
allows template iterators to only redraw changed objects instead of
entire result sets. This implementation also sets the stage for
minimongo indexes and better invalidation performance.
collection.find() now returns a Collection.Query handle. To retrieve
results we provide these methods on Collection.Query:
Iterators (encouraged way to access results):
* query.forEach(function (obj) { ... });
* results = query.map(function (obj) { ... });
Cursor-based retrieval (iterators are built on fetch):
* docs = query.fetch(maxlen); // return next [maxlen] (all) docs.
* doc = query.get(skip); // return next doc, skipping [skip] (0) docs.
Counter:
* length = query.count(); // number of results in query.
Live queries (replaces findLive):
* live_handle = query.observe({added: function (obj, idx) { ... },
removed: function (id, idx) { ... },
changed: function (obj, idx) { ... },
moved: function (obj, old_idx, new_idx) { ... }});
Convenience finders:
* doc = collection.findOne({color: 'red'});
* doc = collection.findOne(id_val);
On the client, calling forEach(), map(), fetch(), get(), or findOne()
inside an invalidation context will register a dependency on the entire
query result. Any change to any objects invalidates the context.
Calling count() inside an invalidation context will register a
dependency that only triggers if objects enter or leave the result set.
Calling observe() does not register a dependency.
