FlowRouter SSR + ReactKomposer

[stewartcelani]

My app relies heavily on FlowRouter & ReactKomposer and I'd love a way for them to work together while doing SSR. This may be possible but there isn't any documentation out there.

From your SSR section in the React Komposer readme:

function postDataLoader(props, onData, env) {
   if (isSSR) {
      const data = fetchData();
      onData(null, data);
      return;
   }

   const stopSubscription = watchData((data) => {
      onData(null, data);
   });
   return stopSubscription;
}

How do we detect that the route is being rendered via SSR and thus flag isSSR to true?

What does the watchData function look like?

Coming from this kind of setup:

function mapMeteorToProps(props, onData) {
    const groupId = props.groupId
    if (Meteor.subscribe('Viewer').ready() && Meteor.subscribe("ClientEmails", groupId).ready() && Meteor.subscribe("LockExceptions").ready()) {
        [blah blah blah...]
        onData(null, {clients, cardZoomClient, lockExceptions, viewer})
    }
}

@stewartcelani hi, any luck with ssr ?

[stewartcelani]

@achtan Unfortunately not. Will probably do a rewrite and switch to react-router + rxjs or apollo.

It seems isSSR mentioned within README.md is "alias" of Meteor.isServer

However, watchData() function is still not found.

@arunoda could you please comment about it?
