service-configuration package

Files documented

  • service_configuration_common.js: defines the collection publish and a ServiceConfiguration.ConfigError error class.
  • service_configuration_server.hs: ensures the index on the service collection.

Architecture

This package just provides access to a configuration collection in ServiceConfiguration.configurations. Packages using the configuration are expected to use Mongo queries on that collection, find-ing using { service: service_name }.

All properties of that collection are published client-side, except secret which is only available server-side.

Configuration is inserted by the AccountsServer.configureLoginService(options) method from accounts-base. In Meteor core, this method is used by login_buttons_dialogs.js like:

  Accounts.connection.call("configureLoginService", configuration, function (error, result) {
    if (error)
      Meteor._debug("Error configuring login service " + serviceName, error);
    else
      loginButtonsSession.set('configureLoginServiceDialogVisible', false);
    }
  );

Collections

  • meteor_accounts_loginServiceConfiguration
    • Index: { "service": 1 }, { unique: true }

The service-configuration package persists configuration in the meteor_accounts_loginServiceConfiguration collection in MongoDB. As each service should have exactly one configuration, Meteor automatically creates a MongoDB index with a unique constraint on the meteor_accounts_loginServiceConfiguration collection.
