Firestore Getting documents id from collection

Question

I\'m trying to retrieve my documents with id but can\'t figure it out.
Currently I retrieve my documents like this :

const racesCollection: AngularFir

I've finally found the solution. Victor was close with the doc data.

const racesCollection: AngularFirestoreCollection;
return racesCollection.snapshotChanges().map(actions => {       
  return actions.map(a => {
    const data = a.payload.doc.data() as Race;
    data.id = a.payload.doc.id;
    return data;
  });
});

ValueChanges() doesn't include metadata, therefor we must use SnapshotChanges() when we require the document id and then map it properly as stated here https://github.com/angular/angularfire2/blob/master/docs/firestore/collections.md
