addFile returns this error on server code: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

Hi all, Trying to run addFile on a meteor method (server) gives me this error:

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

I have run the addFile method using async/await; without async/await; and with Async (meteorhacks:async). I always get same error.

Note: the document is saved on the collection in mongo. But the error occurs and the method does not return normally to the client.

This is my collection:

import { FilesCollection } from 'meteor/ostrio:files';
import SimpleSchema from 'simpl-schema';

const mySchema = {
  ...FilesCollection.schema,
};

export const FluentReports = new FilesCollection({
  collectionName: 'fluentReports',
  allowClientCode: false, // Disallow remove files from Client
  debug: true
});

FluentReports.collection.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema(mySchema));

This is my meteor method:

Meteor.methods({
'requerimientos.reports.general_4'() {

	const user = Meteor.user();
	const fileName = `req.report.general.${user._id}.pdf`; 
	let finalPath = path.join(process.env.PWD, `/.temp`, fileName);
	finalPath = finalPath.replace(/\\/g, "/");

	let response = null;
	response = Async.runSync(function(done) {
		Promise.resolve(
			FluentReports.addFile(finalPath, { 
					fileName: fileName,
					type: 'pdf',
					fileId: new Mongo.ObjectID()._str,
					meta: {owner: this.userId, createdAt: new Date()}
			})
		)
		.then(function(result) { done(null, result); })
		.catch(function (err) { done(err, null); })
		.done();
	});

	if (response.error) {
		console.log(`An error occurred: ${response.error.message}`)
	}

	return { 
			error: false, 
			message: "Ok, el reporte ha sido agregado a meteor-files.", 
			result: response
		   }  
}})

Hi @dr-dimitru , everything is working fine right now. Many thanks for all your help. The final (condensed) code follows:

1) This is how I coded the meteor method:

'requerimientos.reports.general'() {
       ... ... 
        var addFileSync = Meteor.wrapAsync(FluentReports.addFile, FluentReports);

        let result; 

        try { 
            result = addFileSync(finalPath, { fileName: fileName,
                                              type: 'pdf',
                                              fileId: new Mongo.ObjectID()._str,
                                              meta: {owner: this.userId, createdAt: new Date()}
                                            }); 
        } catch(error) { 
            return { 
                    error: true, 
                    message: `Error: some error has ocurrend: ${error.message}`, 
                }
        }
        return { 
                    error: false, 
                    result: result
                } 
    }

2) This is how I call the method from client:

const getReportGeneral2 = () => {
    Meteor.call('requerimientos.reports.general', (error, result) => {

        if (error || result.error) {
            // report your error 
            return;
        }

        Meteor.subscribe('meteor.files.by.id', result.result._id, () => {

            const report = FluentReports.findOne(result.result._id);    

            if (!report) { 
                // report your error ... 
            } else { 
                const link = ` <a href="${report.link()}?download=true" download="${report.name}" target="_blank">${report.name}$</a> `;
               // show link so user can download the file 
            }
        });
    });
}

3) This is the needed subscription:

import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor';
import { FluentReports } from '/imports/api/collections/meteor_files/fluentReports'; 

Meteor.publish("meteor.files.by.id", function (fileId) {
    return FluentReports.collection.find({ _id: fileId });
})

Many thanks again. I’m just beginning to know the library; however I can sense its very well done. And very useful.
