How do I add a server side route that can call Meteor code?

I am trying to allow users to upload images to a site I have built with Meteor, which requires a server-side route I can POST data to. Is there a way to set up a route server side such that I can call Meteor code from it (for example, a route that I can call this.userId or Meteor.userId() from)?

Server side routing is on the roadmap, but not yet available the way you need it. (At that link, Server-side rendering is set for version 1.0).

In the interim, you can do some server side rendering with Tom Coleman's excellent meteor-router mrt package. It's unclear to me how much of this will make it into Meteor core.

More likely, however, for the file upload problem, this issue describes the problem, and it looks like people have had luck implementing imgur's xhr api or perhaps even better is this smart idea.

Hope this helps.
