I have meteor method that does an insert.
Im using Regulate.js for form validation.
I set the game_id field to Meteor.uuid() to create a unique value that I also route to /game_show/:game_id using iron router.
As you can see I'm logging the details of the game, this works fine. (image link to log below)
Meteor.methods({
create_game_form : function(data){
Regulate.create_game_form.validate(data, function (error, data) {
if (error) {
console.log('Server side validation failed.');
} else {
console.log('Server side validation passed!');
// Save data to database or whatever...
//console.log(data[0].value);
var new_game = {
game_id: Meteor.uuid(),
name : data[0].value,
game_type: data[1].value,
creator_user_id: Meteor.userId(),
user_name: Meteor.user().profile.name,
created: new Date()
};
console.log("NEW GAME BEFORE INSERT: ", new_game);
GamesData.insert(new_game, function(error, new_id){
console.log("GAMES NEW MONGO ID: ", new_id)
var game_data = GamesData.findOne({_id: new_id});
console.log('NEW GAME AFTER INSERT: ', game_data);
Session.set('CURRENT_GAME', game_data);
});
}
});
}
});
All of the data coming out of the console.log at this point works fine
After this method call the client routes to /game_show/:game_id
Meteor.call('create_game_form', data, function(error){
if(error){
return alert(error.reason);
}
//console.log("post insert data for routing variable " ,data);
var created_game = Session.get('CURRENT_GAME');
console.log("Session Game ", created_game);
Router.go('game_show', {game_id: created_game.game_id});
});
On this view, I try to load the document with the game_id I just inserted
Template.game_start.helpers({
game_info: function(){
console.log(this.game_id);
var game_data = GamesData.find({game_id: this.game_id});
console.log("trying to load via UUID ", game_data);
return game_data;
}
});
sorry cant upload images... :-(

As you can see from the image of the console log below, everything matches
the id logged before insert
the id logged in the insert callback using findOne()
the id passed in the url
However the mongo ID and the UUID I inserted ARE NOT THERE, the only document in there has all the other fields matching except those two!
Not sure what im doing wrong. Thanks!
