dfirestore

test workflow

a deno Firestore REST client

Usage

To get started with the package you can either setup the application with your tokens or authenticate with one of the helpers. After you authenticate you can freely use the REST client and your access tokens will rotate before they expire. For examples of values to use when perform creates/updates can be found at Firestore Value Docs

Configuration

All pre-configuration settings are optional. You should use setProjectID to establish your project if you are going to use the same one for every request. If you the second param for setTokenFromEmailPassword is set to true you need to make sure you have read and write permissions since we currently use a sub process that needs the permissions to store the new token before expiration. Make sure to start deno with the following --unstable --allow-run --allow-net=firestore.googleapis.com,identitytoolkit.googleapis.com to allow network request to firestore.

import {
  setDatabase,
  setToken,
  setProjectID,
  setTokenFromServiceAccount,
  setTokenFromEmailPassword,
} from "https://deno.land/x/dfirestore/mod.ts";

/*
 * CONFIGURATION: Add authentication token for all request.
 * Use one of the `setToken` methods below all configs are optional.
 */

// Optional: If GoogleService-Info.plist and gcloud installed on machine run to get service token
setTokenFromServiceAccount();
// Optional: If Email and Password secret shared. Optional params when using env variables
setTokenFromEmailPassword(
  {
    email: "someemail@something.com",
    password: "something",
  },
  true // background refresh token before expiration
);
// Optional: Manually set authentication from access token (jwt)
setToken("someidtoken");
// Optional: set db
setDatabase("(default)");

// Optional: set project id but nice to use
setProjectID("myprojectid");

Client

Use the REST client below via the following methods to perform CRUD operations.

import { firestore } from "https://deno.land/dfirestore/mod.ts";

// add new document: Check firebase param values for list key types ex (stringValue).
await firestore.createDocument({
  collection: "users",
  id: "L0xO1Yri80WlrFSw6KxqccHhKhv2",
  value: { firstname: { stringValue: "Jeff" } },
});
// get document in collection by id
await firestore.getDocument({
  collection: "users",
  id: "L0xO1Yri80WlrFSw6KxqccHhKhv2",
});
// get document collection list
await firestore.getDocument({
  collection: "users",
  pageSize: 10, // optional: page limit
  pageToken: "thepagetokenfornextpage", // optional: page token to get the next page
  orderBy: "desc", // optional: order desc, key, etc
  showMissing: false, // optional: show missing props
  mask: { fieldPaths: ["id", "name"] }, // optional: mask the object fields
});
// delete document by id
await firestore.deleteDocument({
  collection: "users",
  id: "L0xO1Yri80WlrFSw6KxqccHhKhv2",
});
// update document in collection by id
await firestore.updateDocument({
  collection: "users",
  id: "L0xO1Yri80WlrFSw6KxqccHhKhv2",
  value: { firstname: { stringValue: "Jeff" } },
});
// update document in collection by id for set projectID
await firestore.updateDocument({
  collection: "users",
  id: "L0xO1Yri80WlrFSw6KxqccHhKhv2",
  project: "someproj",
  value: { firstname: { stringValue: "Jeff" } },
});
