firebase firestore update code example

Example 1: firestore set a document

let data = {
  name: 'Los Angeles',
  state: 'CA',
  country: 'USA'
};

// Add a new document in collection "cities" with ID 'LA'
let setDoc = db.collection('cities').doc('LA').set(data);

Example 2: firestore create document with auto id

// Add a new document with a generated id.
db.collection("cities").add({
    name: "Tokyo",
    country: "Japan"
})
.then(function(docRef) {
    console.log("Document written with ID: ", docRef.id);
})
.catch(function(error) {
    console.error("Error adding document: ", error);
});
---------------------------
//If you want to specify id then use .set() 
// e.x   \/
db.collection("cities").doc("TYO").set({
    name: "Tokyo",
    country: "Japan"
})

Example 3: firestore update array

let washingtonRef = db.collection('cities').doc('DC');

// Atomically add a new region to the "regions" array field.
let arrUnion = washingtonRef.update({
  regions: admin.firestore.FieldValue.arrayUnion('greater_virginia')
});
// Atomically remove a region from the "regions" array field.
let arrRm = washingtonRef.update({
  regions: admin.firestore.FieldValue.arrayRemove('east_coast')
});
