Meteor Async Guide

From Meteor's documentation:

In Meteor, your server code runs in a single thread per request, not in the asynchronous callback style typical of Node. We find the linear execution model a better fit for the typical server code in a Meteor application.

This guide serves as a mini-tour of tools, trix and patterns that can be used to run async code in Meteor.

Basic async

Sometimes we need to run async code in Meteor.methods. For this we create a Future to block until the async code has finished. This pattern can be seen all over Meteor's own codebase:

A quick and dirty script to download GDC Vault videos.
# GDC Vault videos can't be watched on mobile devices and this is a very sad thing indeed!
# (Note: this has changed for GDC2013, which lets you watch raw MP4 streams. Kudos!)
# This script is designed to circumvent this by downloading the lecture and slideshow
# videos which can then be re-encoded into whatever format you wish. Obviously, you
# won't be able to do this without access to the Vault. This is strictly for the
# convenience of legitimate Vault users!
# Note: this code is rather flimsy and was written as fast as possible for my own personal use.
# The code only works for the most recent GDC Vault videos, since they all use the same player
# format. If the XML format used to run the player is changed (as it has in the past), the code
