Meteor Multi Input Mail - forms

I have a problem for my form.
In my template contact , i want of this message insert on my (admin) page.
This code :
if(Meteor.isClient) {
Template.contact.events({
'submit #mymess' : function(){
event.preventDefault();
var nom = event.target.text.value;
var prenom = event.target.text.value;
var objet = event.target.text.value;
var mail = event.target.text.value;
var content = event.target.text.value;
if(nom != ''){
Messages.insert({
text: nom,
createdAt: new Date()
});
console.log('hello');
event.target.text.value = '';
}
if(prenom != ''){
Messages.insert({
text: prenom,
createdAt: new Date()
});
event.target.text.value = '';
}
if(objet != ''){
Messages.insert({
text: objet,
createdAt: new Date()
});
event.target.text.value = '';
}
if(mail != ''){
Messages.insert({
text: mail,
createdAt: new Date()
});
event.target.text.value = '';
}
if(content != ''){
Messages.insert({
text: content,
createdAt: new Date()
});
event.target.text.value = '';
}
},
});
}
<template name="contact">
<form id="mymess">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="prenom" class="input_mail_name " placeholder="Prénom">
<input type="text" name="nom" class="input_mail_name f_r" placeholder="Nom">
<input type="text" name="mail" class="input_mail_name long margin-top_20" placeholder="Email">
<input type="text" name="objet" class="input_mail_name margin-top_20 f_r" placeholder="Objet">
<textarea type="text" name="content" placeholder="Messages" class="input_txt_contact margin-top_20"></textarea>
<button type="submit" class="input_mail_send margin-top_20" id="submit">ENVOYER</button>
</div>
</form>
</template>
I don't understand why my form doesn't insert on my collection Messages
And in : lib/router/collection.js
Messages = new Mongo.Collection("messages");

You forgot to add the argument 'event' to your event handler. After you've added this argument, you can access your form elements by using event.target.[name].value.
It would be cleaner to add one object for each submit.
if(Meteor.isClient) {
Template.contact.events({
'submit #mymess' : function(event){
event.preventDefault();
var nom = event.target.nom.value;
var prenom = event.target.prenom.value;
var objet = event.target.objet.value;
var mail = event.target.mail.value;
var content = event.target.content.value;
if(nom != '' && prenom !='' && objet!='' && mail!='' && content !=''){
Messages.insert({
nom: nom,
prenom: prenom,
objet: objet,
mail: mail,
content: content,
createdAt: new Date()
});
console.log('hello');
event.target.nom.value = '';
event.target.prenom.value = '';
event.target.objet.value = '';
event.target.mail.value = '';
event.target.content.value = '';
}
}
});
}

You need to pass in the event object as a parameter to your function:
if(Meteor.isClient) {
Template.contact.events({
'submit #mymess' : function( event ){
event.preventDefault();
var nom = event.target.text.value;
var prenom = event.target.text.value;

Autocomplete for Two <Input>

I get a code from Google to autocomplete address fields. It works well for one "Input type=text". I use it for "Departure"
Problem is when i duplicate these code to have a second "Input type=text" as "Arrival" : it only works for one of them.
I Tried to change input id="autocomparr" and some var without success.
Regards
<input id="autocompdep"
placeholder="Enter your address"
onFocus="geolocate()"
type="text"/>
<script>
var placeSearch, autocomplete;
var componentForm = {
street_number: 'short_name',
route: 'long_name',
locality: 'long_name',
administrative_area_level_1: 'short_name',
country: 'long_name',
postal_code: 'short_name'
};
var options = {
componentRestrictions: {country: 'fr'}
};
function initAutocomplete() {
// Create the autocomplete object, restricting the search predictions to
// geographical location types.
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
document.getElementById('autocompdep'), options, {types: ['geocode']});
// Avoid paying for data that you don't need by restricting the set of
// place fields that are returned to just the address components.
autocomplete.setFields(['address_component']);
// When the user selects an address from the drop-down, populate the
// address fields in the form.
autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', fillInAddress);
}
function fillInAddress() {
// Get the place details from the autocomplete object.
var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
for (var component in componentForm) {
document.getElementById(component).value = '';
document.getElementById(component).disabled = false;
}
// Get each component of the address from the place details,
// and then fill-in the corresponding field on the form.
for (var i = 0; i < place.address_components.length; i++) {
var addressType = place.address_components[i].types[0];
if (componentForm[addressType]) {
var val = place.address_components[i][componentForm[addressType]];
document.getElementById(addressType).value = val;
}
}
}
// Bias the autocomplete object to the user's geographical location,
// as supplied by the browser's 'navigator.geolocation' object.
function geolocate() {
if (navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
var geolocation = {
lat: position.coords.latitude,
lng: position.coords.longitude
};
var circle = new google.maps.Circle(
{center: geolocation, radius: position.coords.accuracy});
autocomplete.setBounds(circle.getBounds());
});
}
}

Answer to myself (and for others that will have this problem)
It is now working for 2 input text field on the same page. Geolococate is set for France and French Riviera to be more accurate for my needs.

How to prevent repeating code of form validation

I created the form for multiple inputs, where the specific input data shall be validated at the time of data entry and once again for all data just before the submission of the form to the backend.
The conditions to submit: all fields are mandatory and the data is valid.
My program works, but I don't like that I'm repeating the validation code in 2 places: in ErrorOutput and hadleSubmit.
In ErrorOutput I check the data and, if necessary, display an error message.
In handleSubmit I just check the data without displaying of error message and if all data is valid, I confirm submitting.
How can I improve my example to prevent the repetition of this code, but the data validation was also at the time of data entry and before submission?
import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-dom'
const ErrorOutput = props => {
let name = props.name
let inputValue = props.case
let submit = props.submit
// Data validation
if (name === 'firstName') {
if (!inputValue.match(/^[a-zA-Z]+$/) && inputValue.length > 0) {
return <span>Letters only</span>
} else if (submit && inputValue.length === 0) {
return <span>Required</span>
}
return <span></span>
}
if (name === 'telNo') {
if(!inputValue.match(/^[0-9]+$/) && inputValue.length > 0) {
return <span>Numbers only</span>
} else if (submit && inputValue.length === 0) {
return <span>Required</span>
}
return <span></span>
}
}
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props)
this.state = {
firstName: '',
telNo: '',
submit: false
}
}
handleSubmit(e){
e.preventDefault()
let submit = true
let error = true
const { firstName, telNo } = this.state
this.setState ({submit: submit})
// Repeat the data validation before submission
if (firstName === '' || !firstName.match(/^[a-zA-Z]+$/)) {
error = true
} else if (telNo === '' || !telNo.match(/^[0-9]+$/)) {
error = true
} else {
error = false
}
// Submited if all data is valid
if (!error) {
// send data
return alert('Success!')
}
}
handleValidation(e) {
this.setState({
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
})
}
render() {
return (
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit.bind(this)}>
<div>
<label>
First name:
</label>
<input
type='text'
name ='firstName'
value = {this.state.firstName}
onChange = {this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
<ErrorOutput case={this.state.firstName} name={'firstName'} submit = {this.state.submit} />
</div>
<div>
<label>
Phone number:
</label>
<input
type='tel'
name ='telNo'
value = {this.state.telNo}
onChange = {this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
<ErrorOutput case={this.state.telNo} name={'telNo'} submit = {this.state.submit} />
</div>
<button>
Submit
</button>
</form>
)
}
}
render(
<App />,
document.getElementById('root')
)
You could extract a FormItem component:
class FormItem extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<label>
{this.props.label}
</label>
<input
{...this.props.input}
/>
<ErrorOutput
case={this.props.input.value}
name={this.props.input.name}
submit={this.props.onSubmit}
/>
</div>
);
}
}
and use it in your App:
render() {
return (
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit.bind(this)}>
<FormItem label='First name:' input={{
type: 'text'
name: 'firstName'
value: this.state.firstName,
onChange: this.handleValidation.bind(this)
}}
onSubmit={this.state.submit}
/>
<FormItem label='Phone number:' input={{
type:'tel'
name :'telNo'
value : {this.state.telNo}
onChange : {this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
}}
onSubmit={this.state.submit}
/>
<button>
Submit
</button>
</form>
)
}
this is where libraries like react-final-form and redux-form become handy.
UPD
ErrorOutput component should not validate anything, it is not a responsibility of a component. Instead, you could validate your values on inputs blur event and before submit:
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props)
this.state = {
firstName: '',
telNo: '',
submit: false,
errors: {},
invalid: false,
}
}
handleSubmit(e){
e.preventDefault()
if (this.validate()) {
// handle error
} else {
// submit
}
}
validate = () => {
const { firstName, telNo } = this.state
const errors = {}
let invalid = false;
if (firstName === '' || !firstName.match(/^[a-zA-Z]+$/)) {
errors.firstName = 'first name is required'
invalid = true;
} else if (telNo === '' || !telNo.match(/^[0-9]+$/)) {
telNo.telNo = 'telNo is required'
invalid = true;
}
this.setState({
invalid,
errors,
})
return invalid;
}
render() {
return (
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit.bind(this)}>
<FormItem label='First name:' input={{
type: 'text',
name: 'firstName',
value: this.state.firstName,
onChange: e => this.setState({ firstName: e.target.value }),
onBlur: () => this.validate(),
}}
/>
<FormItem label='Phone number:' input={{
type: 'tel',
name: 'telNo',
value: this.state.telNo,
onChange: e => this.setState({ telNo: e.target.value }),
onBlur: () => this.validate(),
}}
/>
<button>
Submit
</button>
</form>
)
}
}
and FormItem and ErrorOutput:
const ErrorOutput = ({ error }) => <span>{error}</span>
class FormItem extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<label>
{this.props.label}
</label>
<input
{...this.props.input}
/>
{this.props.error && <ErrorOutput error={this.props.error} />}
</div>
);
}
}
const ErrorOutput = ({ errorText }) => <span>{errorText}</span>;
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
firstName: "",
telNo: "",
submit: false,
errors: {} //Add errors object to the state.
};
}
handleSubmit(e) {
e.preventDefault();
const errors = this.validateData();
if (Object.keys(errors).length === 0) {
alert("Success");
}
//else errors exist
this.setState({ errors });
}
validateData = () => {
let errors = {};
const { firstName, telNo } = this.state; // read the values to validate
if (firstName.length === 0) {
errors.firstName = "Required";
} else if (firstName.length > 0 && !firstName.match(/^[a-zA-Z]+$/)) {
errors.firstName = "Letters only";
}
if (telNo.length === 0) {
errors.telNo = "Required";
} else if (telNo.length > 0 && !telNo.match(/^[0-9]+$/)) {
errors.telNo = "Numbers only";
}
return errors;
};
handleValidation(e) {
this.setState({
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
});
}
render() {
const { errors } = this.state; // read errors from the state
return (
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit.bind(this)}>
<div>
<label>First name:</label>
<input
type="text"
name="firstName"
value={this.state.firstName}
onChange={this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
{errors.firstName && <ErrorOutput errorText={errors.firstName} />}
</div>
<div>
<label>Phone number:</label>
<input
type="tel"
name="telNo"
value={this.state.telNo}
onChange={this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
{errors.telNo && <ErrorOutput errorText={errors.telNo} />}
</div>
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
);
}
}
render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));

Form validation before the submission and at time of the data entry

I started to study React and wanted to create the form for multiple inputs, where I can check the validation of the data at the time of input and again before submitting of the form.
The conditions to submit: all fields are mandatory and the data is valid.
Currently, if user enters invalid data in input field, error text is displayed near the same field. And if user clicked button "submit" on the form with empty fields, error text is also displayed.
But I can't really work it out, how should I do the validation before the submission of the form in my example: : the form has the input field with an error or not.
import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-dom'
const ErrorOutput = props => {
let name = props.name
let inputValue = props.case
let submit = props.submit
console.log(props.submit)
if (name === 'firstName') {
if (!inputValue.match(/^[a-zA-Z]+$/) && inputValue.length > 0) {
return <span>Letters only</span>
} else if (submit && inputValue.length === 0) {
return <span>Required</span>
}
return <span></span>
}
if (name === 'telNo') {
if(!inputValue.match(/^[0-9]+$/) && inputValue.length > 0) {
return <span>Numbers only</span>
} else if (submit && inputValue.length === 0) {
return <span>Required</span>
}
return <span></span>
}
}
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props)
this.state = {
firstName: '',
telNo: '',
submit: false
}
}
handleSubmit(e){
e.preventDefault()
let submit = true
this.setState ({submit: submit})
// ... Validation
}
handleValidation(e) {
this.setState({
[e.target.name]: e.target.value
})
}
render() {
return (
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit.bind(this)}>
<div>
<label>
First name:
</label>
<input
type='text'
name ='firstName'
value = {this.state.firstName}
onChange = {this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
<ErrorOutput case={this.state.firstName} name={'firstName'} submit = {this.state.submit} />
</div>
<div>
<label>
Phone number:
</label>
<input
type='tel'
name ='telNo'
value = {this.state.telNo}
onChange = {this.handleValidation.bind(this)}
/>
<ErrorOutput case={this.state.telNo} name={'telNo'} submit = {this.state.submit} />
</div>
<button>
Submit
</button>
</form>
)
}
}
render(
<App />,
document.getElementById('root')
)
the following code is an example of adding data via form and form validation prior to the submit. More validations can be added.
class Form extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
name: '',
age: '',
email: '',
errorName: '',
errorAge: '',
errroMail: '',
dataValue: false
};
this.getName = this.getName.bind(this);
this.getAge = this.getAge.bind(this);
this.handleSubmit = this.handleSubmit.bind(this);
this.postDatainDisplay = this.postDatainDisplay.bind(this);
}
componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) {
if (this.props.name !== nextProps.name) {
this.setState({ dataValue: true });
}
}
postDatainDisplay(dataObj) {
this.props.postData(dataObj);
}
getName(event) {
const { name, age } = this.state;
this.setState({ errorName: '' });
this.setState({ name: event });
}
getAge(event) {
const { age } = this.state;
this.setState({ errorAge: '' });
this.setState({ age: event });
}
handleSubmit() {
const { name, age } = this.state;
//add more validation here
if (name === '') {
this.setState({ errorName: 'name cannot be blank', dataValue: false
});
} else if (age === '') {
this.setState({ errorAge: 'Age cannot be blank', dataValue: false });
} else
{ this.setState({ data: { name, age } }, () => {
this.props.sendData(this.state.data);
}
render() {
const { name, age } = this.props;
return (
<div className="container">
<form>
name:<input
type="text"
onChange={event => {
this.getName(event.target.value);
}}
/>
{this.state.errorName}
<br />
<br />
age:{' '}
<input
type="text"
onChange={event => {
this.getAge(event.target.value);
}}
/>
{this.state.errorAge}
<br />
<br />
<input type="button" onClick={this.handleSubmit} value="Submit"
/>
</form>
</div>
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props)
this.state = {
form:{
firstName: {
value: '',
validation: {
required: true
},
valid: false,
touched: false
},
telNo: {
value: '',
validation: {
required: true
},
valid: false,
touched: false
}
},
formIsValid:false
}
}
checkValidity(value, rules) {
let isValid = true;
if (rules.required) {
isValid = value.trim() !== '' && isValid;
}
return isValid;
}
handleValidation = (event) => {
let fieldName = event.target.name;
let fieldValue = event.target.value;
const updatedCategoryForm = {
...this.state.form
};
const updatedFormElement = {
...updatedCategoryForm[fieldName]
};
updatedFormElement.touched = true;
updatedFormElement.value = fieldValue;
updatedFormElement.valid = this.checkValidity(updatedFormElement.value, updatedFormElement.validation);
if (!updatedFormElement.valid && updatedFormElement.validation ) {
updatedFormElement.elementValidation = "Invalid";
} else {
updatedFormElement.elementValidation = "";
}
updatedCategoryForm[fieldName] = updatedFormElement;
let formIsValid = true;
for (let inputIdentifier in updatedCategoryForm) {
formIsValid = updatedCategoryForm[inputIdentifier].valid && formIsValid;
}
this.setState({ form: updatedCategoryForm, formIsValid: true });
}
Based on the value of formIsValid field disable submit button

Populate dropdown based on logged in user created records

How do I populate a dropdown with records/documents created by the logged in user? I have a collection that many users can create schools. I want it to be that if a user that have created more than a school the dropdown should show populated with the number of schools. If it is only one, the _id of the school should just be passed to a hidden field.
This is the school collection:
if (Meteor.isServer) {
Meteor.methods({
SchoolRegister: function (newschoolname, newschoolmotto, newschholvision, sellschool, schooltype,
schoolfeerange, schoolcurriculum) {
if (!Meteor.userId()) {
throw new Meteor.Error('Not authorized', 'You must be logged in to add a new school!');
return false;
}else{
var regUsername = Meteor.user().username;
var year = new Date().getFullYear();
var month = new Date().getMonth() + 1;
var day = new Date().getDate();
var date = (month +"/" +day +"/" +year).toString();
var schoolId = NewSchoolDB.insert({
newschoolnamevar: newschoolname,
newschoolmottovar: newschoolmotto,
newschholvisionvar: newschholvision,
sellschoolvar: sellschool,
schooltypevar: schooltype,
schoolfeerangevar: schoolfeerange,
schoolcurriculumvar: schoolcurriculum,
createdAt: new Date(),
author: regUsername,
authorId: Meteor.userId()
});
return schoolId;
}
},
UserRecords: function () {
if (!Meteor.userId()) {
throw new Meteor.Error('Not authorized', 'You must be logged in to add a new school!');
return false;
}else{
//var UserDocuments = NewSchoolDB.find({authorId: Meteor.userId()}).count();
return NewSchoolDB.find({authorId: Meteor.userId()});
}
}
});
}
I'm using this to call the method:
Template.SchoolContactLayout.helpers({
UsersDocuments: function () {
return Meteor.call('UserRecords');
console.log(Meteor.call('UserRecords'));
}
});
This is the template file
{{# if UsersDocuments == 1 }}
<input type="hidden" name="schoolId" value="{{ UsersDocuments._id }}">
{{else}}
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control" name="schoolnames" id="schoolnames" required style="color: black; width: 100%; font-family: 'candara'">
<option value="{{UsersDocuments._id}}">{{UsersDocuments.newschoolnamevar}}</option>
</select>
</div>
{{/if}}
All in all, no error was returned and it did not work.
Meteor.call('UserRecords') is Async function you have to wait for it in a callback and use session instead.
Meteor.call('UserRecords', function(err,res){
// res will be your return value you can set your session here
});
or you can use package for example you can search atmosphere for reactive method

bootstrap typeahead url/redirect

$(function(){
var orthoObjs = {};
var orthoNames = [];
var throttledRequest = _.debounce(function(query, process){
$.ajax({
url: 'json/ortho4.json'
,cache: false
,success: function(data){
orthoObjs = {};
orthoNames = [];
_.each( data, function(item, ix, list){
orthoNames.push( item.searchPhr );
orthoObjs[ item.searchPhr ] = item;
});
process( orthoNames );
}
});
}, 300);
$(".typeahead").typeahead({
source: function ( query, process ) {
throttledRequest( query, process );
}
,updater: function (item) {
var url = "orthoObjs[item.searchUrl]";
window.location = url;
Whats the best way to get the redirect to work? I have seen similar questions, but can't get this to work. Documentation on typeahead isn't great. I am using underscore.js for the each function. Just want a simple search query that redirects when the user selects.
I actually got this to work. I got a little help... but here it is. There is the JSON file..
[
{ "id":1, "searchUrl":"invisalign.html", "name":"invisalign" }
,{ "id":2, "searchUrl":"invisalign.html", "name":"invisalign teen" }
,{ "id":3, "searchUrl":"clearbraces.html", "name":"clear braces" }
]
And the HTML code....
Lots of good stuff here.. http://fusiongrokker.com/post/heavily-customizing-a-bootstrap-typeahead
And the search code..
