mongodb - Problems adding data using onCreateUser() in Meteor -

i trying hook oncreateuser function accounts-password package add information collection when account created. have added piece of code server.js

       //server.js         var shopdetails = {         name = "",         postcode = "",         type = "";         opentime = "",         closetime = "",         phonenum = 0,         dashboarddetails = false    //until shop populates these fields          createdby = user._id       //_id taken function below         }          accounts.oncreateuser(function(options,user){         var userid = user._id;         shoplist.insert(shopdetails);         return user;         });   

the 2 collections have in app -

• shoplist = new mongo.collection("shoplist") //held in collections folder
• user collection comes bundled accounts-password

once new user has created account, wanted insert object required fields (shopdetails) shoplist collection (for purpose of creating personal dashboard each shop @ later point) . after creating few test accounts, cannot see them in shoplist collection in robomongo, know user accounts being inserted can see them in user collection. can tell me going wrong?

what if print

console.log(shopdetails) inside hook?

also try use callbacks on insert second parameter, can this

shoplist.insert(shopdetails,function(error,result){        if(error){         console.log(error); //should print error , more =d       }else{          console.log(result);         }      }); 

also why don better like

insertshopdetails = function(userid){  var shopdetails = {         name = "",         postcode = "",         type = "";         opentime = "",         closetime = "",         phonenum = 0,         dashboarddetails = false,         createdby = userid          }  shoplist.insert(shopdetails,function(error,result){    if(error){     console.log(error);   }else{      console.log(result);     }  }); } 

and call inside oncreatedhook

accounts.oncreateuser(function(options,user){         var userid = user._id;         insertshopdetails(userid);         return user;         });  

the above thing should work, why dont better using hook?

meteor add matb33:collection-hooks   meteor.users.after.insert(function(userid, doc, modifier) {     var shopdetails = {         name = "",         postcode = "",         type = "";         opentime = "",         closetime = "",         phonenum = 0,         dashboarddetails = false          createdby = userid         }   shoplist.insert(shopdetails); });
