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:

	#!/bin/sh

	git filter-branch --env-filter '

	OLD_EMAIL="[email protected]"
	CORRECT_NAME="The Dark Knight"
	CORRECT_EMAIL="[email protected]"

	if [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL" = "$OLD_EMAIL" ]
	then

	var feed = document.querySelectorAll('.alert')
	var feedType = {}
	feed.forEach(function(el){
	(el.classList).forEach(function(className){
	if (feedType[className]) {
	feedType[className] += 1
	} else {
	feedType[className] = 1
	}
	})

	# You don't need Fog in Ruby or some other library to upload to S3 -- shell works perfectly fine
	# This is how I upload my new Sol Trader builds (http://soltrader.net)
	# Based on a modified script from here: http://tmont.com/blargh/2014/1/uploading-to-s3-in-bash

	S3KEY="my aws key"
	S3SECRET="my aws secret" # pass these in

	function putS3
	{
	path=$1

	Here is a list of scopes to use in Sublime Text 2 snippets -

	ActionScript: source.actionscript.2
	AppleScript: source.applescript
	ASP: source.asp
	Batch FIle: source.dosbatch
	C#: source.cs
	C++: source.c++
	Clojure: source.clojure
	CoffeeScript: source.coffee

	#!/bin/bash

	sudo kextunload -b com.apple.iokit.BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport
	sudo kextload -b com.apple.iokit.BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport
