Entity index table structure does not change when navigating between different entities

[desertjinn]

I have a few entities defined and each has its own individual structure for its index table.
This is an entity named 'sports' -

This is another entity named 'events' -

If I select 'sports' first and then switch to 'events' the index table ends up looking like this -

No console error messages are shown.

This only happens when navigating between entities.
Any idea why?

Maybe it's an issue with autopublish. Can you try updating all dependencies and removing autopublish before dig in into this problem

[desertjinn]

I updated the dependencies and removed autopublish but index table structure is still behaving the same. The table structure of the first entity selected seems to persist while navigating between other entities.

Ok. I will fix this tonight

Sorry, aldeed:tabular is too buggy. I'm thinking in changing it.

[desertjinn]

Hope you find something suitable soon, your package is truly an awesome addition to meteor.

Didn't fix aldeed:tabular but I did a trick to make it work.
PD: aldeed:tabular it's not entirely buggy, but in the tracker topic yes it is

Updated the package, the edit/delete buttons are gone from the table but I am able to edit and delete by selecting the table element 👍 . Nice fix.

New issue :
I had a select option specified using the format

{value:'labelvalue',label:'labelname'} 

and this worked before the update. After updating, no values are available for the select box.

Sorry, I was using the submit button the wrong way.

It works!! 👍

P.S - I have a doubt.
When setting up select box, supplying values in the format {value:'labelvalue',label:'labelname'}, everything works perfectly. 👍

But I am setting the select box options by calling function getVenues() and returning all the values in the prescribed format. This just shows an empty select box now. This used to work fine before the update to 0.4.6.

function getVenues() {
    var venues = orion.entities.venues.collection.find().fetch();
    var venuesmin = [];
    _.each(venues,function(item){
        venuesmin.push({value:item._id,label:""+item.title+""});
    });
    if(venuesmin)
        return venuesmin;
    return [];
}

I configured the select box like this -

orion.addEntity('sports', {
    title: {
        type: String,
        label: "Sport Title",
    },
    venue: {
        type: String,
        label: "Venue",
        optional: true,
        autoform: {
            type: 'select',
            options :getVenues(),
        }
    },

},  {
    icon: 'cubes',
    sidebarName: 'Sports',
    pluralName: 'Sports',
    singularName: 'Sport',

    tableColumns: [
        { data:'title', title: 'Sport' },
        { 
            data:'venue', 
            title: 'Venue', 
            render: function(val, type, doc) {
                var venuename = orion.entities.venues.collection.findOne({_id:doc.venue},{fields:{title:1}});
                if(venuename) return venuename.title;               
            }, 
        },
    ]
});

Specifically retrieving the venues entity collection gives me an empty array.

var venues = orion.entities.venues.collection.find().fetch();
console.log(venues)  //=> Array[0]

Any ideas as to what I'm messing up?

[nicolaslopezj]

It's because you are not subscribed.
Add this line of code in the client

orion.admin.addAdminSubscription(orion.subs.subscribe('entity', 'venues'));

This will subscribe to that entity on every route of the admin

[desertjinn]

Yes, that worked. I also had to tweak calling the function to populate options like this

autoform: {
            type: 'select',
            options : function(){
                var venues = orion.entities.venues.collection.find().fetch();
                var venuesmin = [];
                _.each(venues,function(item){
                    venuesmin.push({value:item._id,label:item.title});
                });

                if(venuesmin)
                    return venuesmin;
                return [];
            },
        }

prior to v0.4.6 I got the values by calling a function defined outside the entity.
