How do I set the displayName of Firebase user?

问题

Bear with me I am new to Google Firebase, sorry for my stupidity

According to the JS Auth documentation on the Firebase website, it only shows how to get the displayName and how to update displayName. So I tried to update it. But it is sort of not logical, because how can you update something without creating it.

So my question here is, how can I set displayName of user during registeration?

function createUser(email, password) {
    firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password).catch(function (error) {
        error.message.replace(".", "");
        alert(error.message + " (" + error.code + ")");
        document.getElementById("password").value = "";
    });
    if (firebase.auth().currentUser != null) {
        firebase.auth().currentUser.updateProfile({
            displayName: document.getElementById("name").value
        }).then(function () {
            console.log("Updated");
        }, function (error) {
            console.log("Error happened");
        });
    }
}

I have already tried this and it has been proven not to work...

You have to chain the request:

firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
.then(function(result) {
  return result.user.updateProfile({
    displayName: document.getElementById("name").value
  })
}).catch(function(error) {
  console.log(error);
});`

I could´t use ({displayName: name}) directly (sintaxe error in editor). Then, I found another way:

UserUpdateInfo updateInfo = UserUpdateInfo();
updateInfo.displayName = name;
result.user.updateProfile(updateInfo);

This is in Dart (I am using Firebase with Flutter).
