Existing collections and tap-i18n-db

[benderskiy]

Hello,

I have a Meteor application with some collections I want to translate now, I've added both i18n and i18n-db plugins, then I've made the following changes:

... (server)
PortfolioCategory = new TAPi18n.Collection('PortfolioCategory', {base_language : "en"});
...
TAPi18n.publish("PortfolioCategory", function() {
    return PortfolioCategory.i18nFind();
});
... (client)
TAPi18n.subscribe("PortfolioCategory");

instead of

... (server)
PortfolioCategory = new Meteor.Collection('PortfolioCategory');
...
Meteor.publish("PortfolioCategory", function() {
    return PortfolioCategory.find();
});
... (client)
Meteor.subscribe("PortfolioCategory");

In my application the collection seems to be empty afterwards

PortfolioCategory.find().fetch()
[]

Meteor console has a following error:

I20150730-21:29:37.024(2)? Exception from sub PortfolioCategory id dhisMMMEttj2c

9:  });

Any feedback will be appreciated!

@theosp thanks for a quick response!

If you already use tap-i18n to internationalize your UI, you are done!

I've understood it so that, meteor add tap-i18n is enough, but without project-tap.i18n it doesn't work either.

Anyway, fixed it now, thank you for your help!
