Does IR redo global waitOn subs between routes?

Router.configure
  waitOn: ->
    Meteor.subscribe 'data'

Does data get torn down and re-subscribed to when I switch from /bar to /foo, or does it stay subscribed to for the entire session, like the null publication?

Solution

  • Yes, data is discarded when you change routes.

    There are solution out there to solve this. One such solution is provided by @arunoda. Check out this repository: subs-manager

    Usage with Iron Router: just replace Meteor.subscribe() calls with subs.subscribe(), where subs is a new SubsManager().

    subs = new SubsManager
Router.configure
    waitOn: ->
       subs.subscribe 'data'
