Empty store after signing in

[kevinmerckx]

I am trying to display the documents stored in the db after the user signs in. For some reason, there are no documents right after signing in, even though I wait for the connect to be fired to call findAll

Scenario:

• user signs in
• we wait for a connect event on the store to do a hoodie.findAll
• the array is always empty
• if we do another call to hoodie.findAll after, we actually get the documents

Is there something I'm missing to make this work?

can you try this please?

hoodie.account.signIn(options)
  .then(() => hoodie.store.pull())
  .then(() => {
    hoodie.store.findAll() // should now resolve with all documents
  })

After sign in, hoodie pulls all documents from the user’s account. We emit the signin event right away and resolve the promise from hoodie.account.signIn() before the pull finished, as it might take some time. But you are not the first to be confused by that behavior, we are looking for a simple way to sign in and know when the initial bootstrap finished

Thanks for you quick reply @gr2m! My current workaround was indeed to do a hoddie.store.sync() when getting the signin event. Wouldn't an event store:synced be a good option to solve that problem?

There is already a pull event, but problem is that it emits after each pull. The way I resolve this myself is that after sign in I show the app and then populate the UI as new data gets added to the store

Hm, I see. With a debounce, just in case :D
