Map items of collection snapshot in Firebase Firestore
Got pretty sick and tired of Firestore returning stuff in their classes or whatever. Here's a helper that if you give it a db
and collection
it will return all the records in that collection as a promise that resolves an actual array.
const docsArr = (db, collection) => {
return db
.collection(collection)
.get()
.then(snapshot => snapshot.docs.map(x => x.data()))
}
;(async () => {
const arr = await docsArr(myDb, myCollection)
console.log(arr)
})()
The answer is:
querySnapshot.docs.map(function(doc) {
# do something
})
The Reference page for Firestore reveals the docs
property on the snapshot.
docs non-null Array of non-null firebase.firestore.DocumentSnapshot
An array of all the documents in the QuerySnapshot.
