Checking for connectivity / current user
How would one go about checking for connection status in this framework? In the ideal case, I would be looking for a Meteor-style reactive variable that says whether the DDP connection is currently open and working or not. I want to use it to automatically reconnect after the app is reopened the phone awakes from 'sleep mode'.
On a similar note, I would also want the same for finding out whether the user is logged in. Something like Meteor.user() ...
Would this be difficult? Tips are very welcome.
+1 This would be interesting to know if you have solved the problem already. Looking to migrate a meteor app into a mobile platform and having difficultly accessing the Meteor.user() helper
I haven't solved the problem yet, unfortunately. I don't know enough about the platform to add such a feature at the current time. I'm still interested, though.
