Getting all documents from one collection in Firestore

Question

Hi I\'m starting with javascript and react-native and I\'m trying to figure out this problem for hours now. Can someone explain me how to get all the documents from firestor

Answer 1

You could get the whole collection as an object, rather than array like this:

async getMarker() {
    const snapshot = await firebase.firestore().collection('events').get()
    const collection = {};
    snapshot.forEach(doc => {
        collection[doc.id] = doc.data();
    });
    return collection;
}

That would give you a better representation of what's in firestore. Nothing wrong with an array, just another option.
