Sometimes it's a good idea to further secure your publishes by requiring a user login. Here is how you achieve this via Meteor.
import { Recipes } from '../imports/api/recipes.js';
import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor';
Meteor.publish('recipes', function() {
if(this.userId) {
return Recipe.find({});
} else {
this.ready(); // or: return [];
}
});
