hi i am trying to increment a value when clicked the button if data is available in firestore this is my code bloc if you have any suggestion lmk please
int q = 0;
final snapShot = await Firestore.instance.collection('cart').document("LIihBLtbfuJ8Dy640DPd").get();
if(snapShot.exists){
q=q+1;
}
Firestore.instance.runTransaction((Transaction transaction) async {
await transaction.update(
Firestore.instance
.collection("cart")
.document("LIihBLtbfuJ8Dy640DPd"),
{
foodItem.name: {
'itemName': foodItem.name,
'imgUrl': foodItem.imageAssetPath,
'itemPrice': foodItem.price,
'quantity': q,
}
});
});
In November 2021, this worked for me.
FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('users').doc(currentUser?.id).update({
'bronzeBadges': FieldValue.increment(2),
});
var quantityref = db.collection("cart").document("LIihBLtbfuJ8Dy640DPd");
// Increment the quantity field by 1.
quantityref.update({
"quantity" : firebase.firestore.FieldValue.increment(1)});
If your want to change a value based on the previous one, you have basically two approaches:
Make use of transactions. I see you're doing that but incorrectly, because you're fetching the current value outside of it, and it could change by the moment you run the update, causing data inconsistencies. I don't know about Flutter, but as far as I know, a Transaction in Firebase consists in a read operation followed by one or more write operations, and the value returned from the read will be the very last one and won't be changed before you finish the transaction, so you can be sure you're working with the latest one. I suggest you to read the Transactions docs.
increment method (recommended): See this see this answer for incrementing in Flutter
First of all, you need to get the desired document and its elements to update the document of fields. In your example, it is quantity.
First, get the document:
Firestore.instance
.collection('cart')
.document('documentID')
.get()
.then((DocumentSnapshot ds) {
// use ds, parse ds then access the quantity
});
After doing the job, you need to update the field. Thankfully, there is an updateData function in firestore instance.
db.collection('cart')
.document('documentID')
.updateData({'quantity': someQuantity});
Hope it helps.

I'm using flutter and firebase. I use pagination, max 5 documents per page. How do I know if there are more documents left to get from a firestore collection. I want to use this information to enable/disable a next page button presented to the user.
limit: 5 (5 documents each time)
orderBy: "date" (newest first)
startAfterDocument: latestDocument (just a variable that holds the latest document)
This is how I fetch the documents.
collection.limit(5).orderBy("date", descending: true).startAfterDocument(latestDocument).get()
I thought about checking if the number of docs received from firestore is equal to 5, then assume there are more docs to get. But this will not work if I there are a total of n * 5 docs in the collection.
I thought about getting the last document in the collection and store this and compare this to every doc in the batches I get, if there is a match then I know I've reach the end, but this means one excess read.
Or maybe I could keep on getting docs until I get an empty list and assume I've reached the end of the collection.
I still feel there are a much better solution to this.
Let me know if you need more info, this is my first question on this account.
There is no flag in the response to indicate there are more documents. The common solution is to request one more document than you need/display, and then use the presence of that last document as an indicator that there are more documents.
This is also what the database would have to do to include such a flag in its response, which is probably why this isn't an explicit option in the SDK.
You might also want to check the documentation on keeping a distributed count of the number of documents in a collection as that's another way to determine whether you need to enable the UI to load a next page.
here's a way to get a large data from firebase collection
let latestDoc = null; // this is to store the last doc from a query
//result
const dataArr = []; // this is to store the data getting from firestore
let loadMore = true; // this is to check if there's more data or no
const initialQuery = async () => {
const first = db
.collection("recipes-test")
.orderBy("title")
.startAfter(latestDoc || 0)
.limit(10);
const data = await first.get();
data.docs.forEach((doc) => {
// console.log("doc.data", doc.data());
dataArr.push(doc.data()); // pushing the data into the array
});
//! update latest doc
latestDoc = data.docs[data.docs.length - 1];
//! unattach event listeners if no more docs
if (data.empty) {
loadMore = false;
}
};
// running this through this function so we can actual await for the
//docs to get from firebase
const run = async () => {
// looping until we get all the docs
while (loadMore) {
console.log({ loadMore });
await initialQuery();
}
};
I'm building a Self-learning app with differente questions types. Right now, one of the questions have a field containing a list of DocumentReferences:
In Flutter, I have the following code:
Query<Map<String, dynamic>> questionsRef = firestore
.collection('questions')
.where('lesson_id', isEqualTo: lessonId);
await questionsRef.get().then((snapshot) {
snapshot.docs.forEach((document) {
var questionTemp;
switch (document.data()['question_type']) {
....
case 'cards':
questionTemp = CardsQuestionModel.fromJson(document.data());
break;
....
}
questionTemp.id = document.id;
questions.add(questionTemp);
});
});
Now, with "questionTemp" I can access all the fields (lesson_id,options,question_type, etc..), but when it comes to the "cards" field, how Can I access the data from that document reference?
Is there a way to tell firestore.instance to get the data from those references automatically? Or do I need to make a new call for each one? and, if so, how can I do that?
Thank you for your support in advance!

No there isn't any way to get these documents automatically. You need to build, for each array element, the corresponding DocumentReference and fetch the document.
To build the reference, use the doc() method
DocumentReference docRef = FirebaseFirestore.instance.doc("cards/WzU...");
and then use the get() method on this DocumentReference.
docRef
.get()
.then((DocumentSnapshot documentSnapshot) {
if (documentSnapshot.exists) {
print('Document exists on the database');
}
});
Concretely, you can loop over the cards Array and pass all the Futures returned by the get() method to the wait() method which "waits for multiple futures to complete and collects their results". See this SO answer for more details and also note that "the value of the returned future will be a list of all the values that were produced in the order that the futures are provided by iterating futures."
FirebaseFirestore.instance
.collection(
'chats/${site}/conversations/${room.id}/messages')
.orderBy('createdAt', descending: true)
.where("createdAt", isGreaterThan: dateTime )
.snapshots()
.map(
(snapshot) {
So, On the first document that inserted to the firestore, the I get i a snapshot. On the second, the stream return the first and the second,
So the i get -
(Doc A)
(Doc A,Doc B)
(Doc A, Doc B, Doc C)
And so on. Is there a way to get:
(Doc A)
(Doc B)
(Doc C)
?
I reviewed your snippet and it appears you are using a Stream from the snapshot() method of a CollectionReference type. According to the documentation, this will stream events as they happen in Firestore. You mentioned that with each document inserted in Firestore, you also started getting the previous documents that were inserted before, instead of getting only the one which was just inserted (the latest). This might be related to the dateTime variable you are using to filter documents. Since you are using a greater than comparison, any documents created after the time set in the dateTime will be returned from the query. This could explain why your query returns additional documents each time a new one is added with a timestamp after the dateTime variable.
If you would like to get only the latest document added to the database each time, you can make use of a query limiter. I tested the limitToLast method to get only the latest document added and it appears to work in my testing. This method returns the very last document in a query, and in order for this to be the newest you would have to invert the process to order by ascending (oldest first) so that the newest document is at the bottom:
FirebaseFirestore firebase = FirebaseFirestore.instance;
firebase
.collection('users')
.orderBy('createdAt', descending: false) // orders by ascending order, latest document is the last
.limitToLast(1) // gets the last document, you can set how many docs to get
.get()
.then((QuerySnapshot snapshot) {
if (snapshot != null) {
// Data is available
snapshot.docs.forEach((doc) {
print(doc['firstName']);
});
} else {
print("No data found");
}
}
for everyone who reach this issue on 2022, the solution is rather simple.
You can stay with the same query but check the doc changes:
snapshot.docChanges.forEach((docChange) {
final data = docChange.doc.data() as Map;
LimitToLast won't solve your problem if the internet connection was down for a few moments and multiple updates arrived, but docChanges is all the changes since the last snapshot.
Note: You need to ignore the first time because it will return all the docs on the collection at the first time.
How I can order data doc by two field, My app have a stream builder and I want order the data by the time that wrote and if the todo important so there is two field in docs one for time and there is boolen value
i want the data order by the time and if the data important that is mean the boolen true to be in the top of the list of stream and when i add data will show ender it. this the code I used for strem
final FirebaseFirestore firestore;
DataBase({this.firestore});
Stream streamTodos({String uid}) {
try {
return firestore
.collection("homeNeeds")
.doc(uid)
.collection('homeNeeds')
.orderBy('time', descending: true)
.snapshots();
} catch (e) {
return e;
}
}
// i tried to put tow orderBy('time', descending: true).orderBy('pin', descending: true)
and it doesn't work the snap shot return empty
it appears that is not as simple as saying you can or you can not, it depends on your specific case, but most likely you'll have to do it client-side.
There is another question like this one here:
You can use multi_sort: ^3.0.0 in this case.
https://pub.dev/packages/multi_sort
I solved this problem by adding Indexes in cloud firestore and that option allow you to use tow orderby in the same code
Is there a way to fetch document after documentID like
private fun fetchCollectoionnAfterDocumentID(limit :Long){
val db = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance()
var query:Query = db.collection("questionCollection")
.startAfter("cDxXGLHlP56xnAp4RmE5") //
.orderBy("questionID", Query.Direction.DESCENDING)
.limit(limit)
query.get().addOnSuccessListener {
var questions = it.toObjects(QuestionBO::class.java)
questions.size
}
}
I want to fetch sorted questions after a given Document ID. I know I can do it using DocumentSnapShot. In order to fetch the second time or after the app is resume I have to save this DocumentSnapshot in Preference.
Can It be possible to fetch after document ID?
startAfter - > cDxXGLHlP56xnAp4RmE5
Edit
I know I can do it using lastVisible DocumentSnapshot . But I have to save lastVisible DocumentSnapshot in sharedPreference.
When app launch first time 10 question are fetched from questionCollection. Next time 10 more question have to be fetched after those lastVisible. So for fetching next 10 I have to save DocumentSnapshot object in sharedPreference. Suggest me a better approach after seeing my database structure.
And one more thing questionID is same as Document reference ID.
There is no way you can pass only the document id to the startAfter() method and simply start from that particular id, you should pass a DocumentSnapshots object, as explained in the official documentation regarding Firestore pagination:
Use the last document in a batch as the start of a cursor for the next batch.
first.get().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<QuerySnapshot>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(QuerySnapshot documentSnapshots) {
=// Get the last visible document
DocumentSnapshot lastVisible = documentSnapshots.getDocuments()
.get(documentSnapshots.size() -1);
// Construct a new query starting at this document,
Query next = db.collection("cities")
.orderBy("population")
.startAfter(lastVisible) //Pass the DocumentSnapshot object
.limit(25);
// Use the query for pagination
}
});
See, here the lastVisible is a DocumentSnapshot object which represents the last visible object. You cannot pass only a document id. For more information, you can check my answer from the following post:
How to paginate Firestore with Android?
It's in Java but I'm confident you can understand it and write it in Kotlin.
Edit:
Please consider defining an order of your results so that all your pages of data can exist in a predictable way. So you need to either specify a startAt()/startAfter() value to indicate where in the ordering to begin receiving ordered documents or use a DocumentSnapshot to indicate the next document to receive, as explained above.
Another solution might be to put the document id into the document itself (as a value of a property) and order on it, or you can use FieldPath.documentId() to order by the id without having to add one.
You can also check this and this out.
There is one way to let startAfter(documentID) works.
Making one more document "get", then using the result as startAfter input.
val db = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance()
// I use javascript await / async here
val afterDoc = await db.collection("questionCollection").doc("cDxXGLHlP56xnAp4RmE5").get();
var query:Query = db.collection("questionCollection")
.startAfter(afterDoc)
.orderBy("questionID", Query.Direction.DESCENDING)
.limit(limit)
A simple way to think of this: if you order on questionID you'll need to know at least the value of questionID of the document to start after. You'll often also want to know the key, to disambiguate between documents with the same values. But since it sounds like your questionID values are unique within this collection, that might not be needed here.
But just knowing the key isn't enough, as that would require Firestore to scan its entire index to find that document. Such an index scan would break the performance guarantees of Firestore, which is why it requires you to give you the information it needs to perform a direct lookup in the index.
