simpl-schema: Error: Invalid definition for pick field

I get the following at Meteor startup which throws it into a death cycle. Any ideas?

Error: Invalid definition for pick field

To use SS, I’m doing the following (if it helps): File 1: import PersonSchema from '../../api/person/schema.js'; Members.attachSchema(PersonSchema);

File 2: import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema'; const PersonSchema = new SimpleSchema({ ... }); export default PersonSchema;

Hmm… weird! I created new meteor project and tried this also. As you can see we have really different version of collection2-core.

 meteor add aldeed:collection2-core

Changes to your project's package version selections:

aldeed:collection2-core      added, version 2.0.1
raix:eventemitter            added, version 0.1.3
tmeasday:check-npm-versions  added, version 0.3.1


aldeed:collection2-core: Core package for aldeed:collection2

I think this is going to fix it for you: meteor add aldeed:collection2-core@2.0.1

That worked for me. Thanks for the suggestion! It’s weird that in my environment, 1.2.0 came down as the default version when I didn’t specify.

I did notice a difference between your output and mine. In my project, check-npm-versions was already installed, so for me, it was updated, whereas for you, it was added. I wonder if having an old version of check-npm-versions had something to do with why it pulled the old version of collection2 for me.

No it does not install aldeed:simple-schema: https://github.com/aldeed/meteor-collection2-core/blob/master/package/collection2/package.js

You should uninstall and remove meteor version of simple-schema: meteor remove aldeed:simple-schema

and remove old collection2 meteor remove aldeed:collection2

after that install collection2-core and npm version of simpl-schema

meteor add aldeed:collection2-core
meteor npm install --save simpl-schema

and to get rid of that error you need to make sure that you are using latest version of npm version of simpl-schema and also that nothing in packages/ is using collection2 nor meteor version of simpl-schema.

@hues0 that’s probably because OrionJS still relies on meteor/aldeed:simple-schema. OrionJS is deprecated, btw, succeeded by Scorpius.js: https://github.com/scorpiusjs/scorpius Still doesn’t use node-simple-schema, but closer.
