How can I include jQuery TokenInput with the Meteor framework? I couldn't find a smart package so now I am wondering how I can do it without needing a smart package.
For example how to include the jquery.tokeninput.js
?
As for coming up with a script that returns search results would I just use iron-router for that?
And have a route that accepts a query string q
, then do a simple MyCollections.find({name: q} ....
?
If would be great if someone could help me understand exactly how I can add this plugin to my app that's on Meteor's framework.
A possible way of doing this without the need of packaging is to put it in your client/lib/
folder.
In this case it would be root_of_your_app/client/lib/jquery.tokeninput.js
, you can also put .css files in there.
I still think you should make a smart package out of it, but this should work.
In terms of building the script, I think you're on the right track.
Make sure you use .fetch()
to return the results in an array, and then possibly use JSON.stringify(array)
to get the right format.
