Some reusable filters

Write your FilterGroups schema like this:

FilterGroups = new Mongo.Collection('filterGroups');

FilterGroups.attachBehaviour('timestampable');

var schema = {
    name: {
        type: String
    },
    filters: {
        type: [Object],
        optional: true
    },
    'filters.$.value': {
        type: String,
        optional: true
    }
};

Meteor.startup(function () {
    _.each(Languages.find().fetch(), function (language) {
        var obj = {};

        obj['filters.$.label_' + language.languageCode] =  {
                type: String,
                label: 'label_' + language.languageCode,
                optional: true
        };

        _.extend(schema, obj);
    });

    FilterGroups.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema(
        schema
    ));
});

Then, use the filter component.

{{> dropdownFilter _id=doc._id}}

Attach the _id from a document of the FilterGroups collection.
