[object Object] Issue with Simple Schema and quickForm

[DanMan259]

I am not sure why I am getting this error when ever I load in my modal with my quickForm. It just keeps on showing [object Object]. Im assuming that I passed an object and it cant represent it with the label. How can I fix the issue.

HTML users.html

<template name="users">
 <div class="row">
        <div class="col s12" align="right">
            <a class="waves-effect waves-light btn modal-trigger" href="#modal1">Add a User</a>
        </div>
        {{#each users}}
            {{>user}}
        {{/each}}
    </div>
    <div id="modal1" class="modal modal-fixed-footer">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <h4>Add new User</h4>
            {{> quickForm collection="Users" id="insertUserForm" type="insert" class="new-user-form"}}
        </div>
        <div class="modal-footer">
            <a href="#!" class="modal-action modal-close waves-effect waves-green btn-flat">
                Close
            </a>
        </div>
    </div>
</template>

JavaScript users.js

import { Mongo } from 'meteor/mongo';
import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema';

SimpleSchema.extendOptions(['autoform']);

export const Users = new Mongo.Collection('users');

const UserSchema = new SimpleSchema({
    firstName: {
        type: String,
        label: "First Name",
    },
    lastName: {
        type: String,
        label: "Last Name",
    },
    email: {
        type: String,
        label: "E-Mail",
    },
    createdAt: {
        type: Date,
        autoform: {
            type: 'hidden',
            label: false,
        },
        defaultValue: new Date(),
    },
});

Users.attachSchema( UserSchema );

JavaScript body.js

import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor';
import { Template } from 'meteor/templating';
import { Users } from '../api/users';

import './body.html';
import './users.html';

window.Users= Users;

Template.body.onCreated(function bodyOnCreated(){
    Meteor.subscribe('users.allusers');
});

Template.registerHelper('formatDate', function(date){
    return moment(date).format('ll');
});

Template.users.helpers({
    users(){
        return Users.find({});
    },
});

Template.users.onRendered(function(){
    $('#modal1').modal();
});

Reproduced on: Meteor v1.8.1 simple-schema v1.5.3 collection2 v3.0.1 autoform v6.3.0

Here is a github repository with a fresh minimalistic meteor project reproducing the bug:

Steps:

1. $ meteor create --full test
2. $ cd test
3. $ meteor npm install simpl-schema
4. $ meteor add aldeed:collection2
5. $ meteor add aldeed:autoform
6. add file ./imports/startup/both/myCollection.js with content:

import { Mongo } from 'meteor/mongo'
import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema'
import { Tracker } from 'meteor/tracker'

SimpleSchema.extendOptions(['autoform'])

const myCollectionSchema = new SimpleSchema({
  myField: String
}, {tracker: Tracker})

MyCollection = new Mongo.Collection('myCollection')
MyCollection.attachSchema(myCollectionSchema)

7. replace the content of ./imports/ui/pages/home/home.js with

<template name="App_home">
  {{> quickForm collection="MyCollection" id="insertMyCollectionForm"
      type="insert"}}
</template>

8. $ meteor
9. open browser and load address localhost:3000 9.1) Expected to see a form contain a text field 9.2) Actual result:

I have been able to reproduce this without using Collection2, thus I conclude this is an AutoForm related error. Found this issue https://github.com/aldeed/simple-schema-js/pull/291 there are 2 possible pull requests waiting for merge. Downgrading Simpl-Schema to 1.4.3 is the current workaround.

This ticket is not Collection2 related and can be closed.
