C. Routing, Controller and Views

1. What is a Controller

Controllers are class which are responsible for displaying dynamic data in the view.

2. Creating a Controller (Backend)

Let's create a simple controller named PostsController that extends MeteorisController.

PostsController = MeteorisController.extend({

});

save this file in "lib/controllers/PostsController.js"

3. Create function inside Controller (Backend)

Backend.PostsController = MeteorisController.extend({
	getOtherMessage: function(){
            return "my Name is Ega Wachid Radiegtya";
	},
	/* passing data from controllers to view */
    data: function() {
	    var otherMessage = this.getOtherMessage();
        return {
			helloWorld: "Hello World",        
			otherMessage: otherMessage,
        };
    },
});

save this file in "lib/controllers/backend/PostsController.js"

function data is responsible for storing dynamic data to be displayed in the view. Create a view with related name, remember this is a best practice naming convention in Meteoris.

4. Create html page to be used with Controller

<template name="backendPostsIndex">
	<p>{{helloWorld}}</p>
	<p>{{otherMessage}}</p>
</template>

save this file in "client/views/backend/posts/index.html"

5. Setup your router Router is responsible for url formatting, for example if you want to redirect user to "AppName/posts/index". You can make routing like this.

Best practice note:

  • AppName is your apps name
  • posts is your controller name or your folder in views name
  • index is your view name inside folder posts This is a little different from MVC concept that other frameworks use, where index is function name from the controller. It's Because we are using MVVM concept.
    /* POSTS */
    this.route('backendPostsIndex', { //targetted template
        path: 'backend/posts/index/', //desired path
        controller: Backend.PostsController, //targetted controller
    });

save this file in "lib/router.js"

6. running your app To run your app, use this url http://localhost:3000/posts/index. Now you should see "Hello World" and "my Name is Ega Wachid Radiegtya" message on your screen. Congratulation!
