Is there any built-in way to prevent collectionapi from returning the document on $set?

In my app, my api call is building a fairly large document. For efficiency sake, I don't need it returned to the external device.

I know I can set the fields returned in Meteor.publish however, I still need them within my Meteor app.

Do you know of any way to only return true/false instead?

Thanks!

Hmm, looking in the source, makes me think not possible. Perhaps there's a way to accomplish this deeper in Meteor. Will play around with it a bit.

Curious if you have any thoughts on this. Looks like it's supposed to be returning records.length but instead I'm getting the entire record. This is a PUT api call using $set. Thanks!

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner! It returns the entire record by design as of right now, sorry. I'll leave this issue open as an enhancement request.
