Storing 'form' in a variable - Meteor

  • 772

I'm trying to store an entry by keyboard or inputin a variable, but when I try to print it, it returns empty.

It is a simple login.

I have a file called login.js, in which I set the fromas follows:

Template.login.events({
'submit form': function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    Meteor.loginWithPassword(**aux =** event.target.usuario.value, event.target.clave.value, function(err){

Regarding the html file, the code it presents is the following:

div class="modal-body">
      <form class="form col-md-12 center-block">
        <div class="form-group">
         <input name="usuario" type="text" id="inputEmail" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Usuario" required autofocus>
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
         <input name="clave" type="password" id="inputPassword" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Contraseña" required>
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
         <button class="btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block" type="submit">Ingresar</button>
         <br>
         <!--Es posible que sea necesario,destinar un link, para ayudar al usuario en el caso de que no pueda acceder-->
         <span><a id="ayuda" href="#">¿Necesitas ayuda?</a></span>
        </div>
      </form>
  </div>

When trying to print the value of said variable from another template( {{aux}}), through the html file, it does not print any value. The value I'm trying to store and print to another templateis the username,

I have tried this process by importing and exporting the variable in various ways, but I never get to print the value. Honestly, I'm not very sure how to do it (I'm new to web programming, and Meteor)
