I would like to know if is there any way I can read the whole list of packages atmosphere handles or any sort of list of available packages?

If you mean you want to see what packages your app is using run this in your apps directory

meteor list --using

If you mean you want to access the raw data on atmosphere you can do this using DDP.

The data is stored in the packages collection & you can access it by subscribing to packageMetadata

If you use meteor you can do (Server side)

var atmosphere = DDP.connect("https://atmosphere.meteor.com");
atmosphere.subscribe("packageMetadata");

var Packages = new Meteor.Collection("packages", {connection: atmosphere});

Once the subscription is complete you can view the packages in the Packages collection.

This isn't limited to using meteor there are DDP modules available in other languages such as .NET, Nodejs & ruby to name a few

  • Nice, that's what I needed. The server side thing. Maybe the question wasn't clear enough. Thx! – bitIO Dec 14 '13 at 15:16
  • Hi Akshat, in your comment to the person asking for help with two Mongodb databases and Meteor http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20535755/using-multiple-mongodb-databases-with-meteor-js, you say it can't be done at the present time. But aren't you doing something like that with this subscribing to packageMetadata? – TonyM Dec 14 '13 at 19:06
  • @tonemcd this is same method used in the answer there in the first part. A different database can't be used with the same app, but if there is a seperate meteor app with another db it can be connected to that one to make it appear as a different database. – Tarang Dec 14 '13 at 19:13
  • @Akshat Ok, I think I've got it now. Thanks! – TonyM Dec 15 '13 at 16:09
