removeEmptyStrings doesn't work

[zhe1ka]

Hi, I've some problem when I want to save my object with an empty value of a field. I try to use "removeEmptyStrings", but it doesn't help me. I really don't know what I should do to fix it.

My code

const CompaniesSchema = new SimpleSchema({
    name: {
        type: String,
        defaultValue: ''
    }
}

CompaniesSchema.clean({
    removeEmptyStrings: false
});

const Companies = new Mongo.Collection('Companies');
Companies.attachSchema(CompaniesSchema);

========

Companies.update({ userId: this.userId }, {
    $set: {
        name: '',
    }
})

Exception while invoking method 'saveProfileCompany' Error: Name is required

The Meteor SimpleSchema package is no longer maintained other than critical fixes to keep it running with each latest Meteor release. Closing non-critical issues in this repo. Anyone who cares about this may do one or more of the following:

• Switch to the NPM package. Be sure to adjust for the breaking changes. There can be a lot of work involved in switching, but it is worth the effort.
• If this issue still occurs in the NPM package, submit an issue there. Be sure to include a link to a reproduction repo or a PR that adds a failing test for the issue.
• If you have more time than money, submit a pull request to resolve any issue labeled "help wanted" in the NPM package repo.
• If you have more money than time, donate to help support development if you are able
