TypeError: Meteor.Collection.getAll is not a function

[sebastianconcept]

I'm reaching this exception in a [email protected] app.

Throws it at:
https://github.com/abecks/meteor-infinite-scroll/blob/master/infinite-scroll.js#L75

I suggest:

  const collectionExists = !!global[options.collection] && (global[options.collection] instanceof Meteor.Collection);
    // Collection exists?
  if (!collectionExists) {
    throw new Error('Collection does not exist: ', options.collection);
  } else {
    //set collection to cursor. collectionExists.name evaluates to a string
    collection = global[options.collection];
  }

I'm getting a similar error, but from uglify, like this: meteor/meteor#5387

.../parse.js:196:18:   Unexpected token name (collectionExists)

Will try to get this fixed. Short on time right now. Will accept PRs.

I found my problem, I made a subscription for the collection and it conflicted with the one that this library is setting. After the subscription was deleted everything works like it is supposed to.

P.S. : The name of the collection (in this.infiniteScroll{ collection: 'name' }) should be as the name of your collection in Mongo not as the name of your collection in the model, in the model my collection started with capital case and in Mongo with lower, this throws: "Error: Collection does not exist: "

Release 1.0.0 is out. Thanks @mizsha and @TheCodeLord. Please let me know if you have any further issues.
