This can become slightly complex, especially when you need to monitor updates in real-time. In this blog, we will tackle how to efficiently fetch a collection of user profiles and their respective roles from Firebase Firestore using AngularFire. The Challenge: Understanding the Data Structure Before we dive into the solution, let's take a closer look at the data structure in our Firebase database. In our case, we have a profiles collection that looks something like this: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] Profiles: Contains user details like displayName, email, etc. Roles: A subcollection under each profile to manage access rights and user roles, allowing different write permissions compared to the primary profile data. The Requirement Our primary goal is to retrieve user profiles along with their corresponding roles, specifically checking for the presence of roles such as admin or user. This information should be available in real-time to reflect any changes made by users. The Solution: Implementing Reactive Queries with AngularFire To efficiently manage this, we can use a combination of AngularFire services along with RxJS operators. Here’s how to set up the query: Step 1: Retrieving Profiles Start by injecting AngularFirestore into your component and retrieving the user profiles. Use the valueChanges() method to maintain a subscription to the data: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] valueChanges({ idField: 'uid' }): This retrieves all profiles and adds the document ID as a field named uid. Step 2: Fetching Roles for Each Profile Next, we need to enrich our profiles with the roles assigned. We will use switchMap to switch to another observable that fetches roles for each user: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] Breakdown of the Code switchMap: Takes the latest value from the profiles observable and switches to a new observable that retrieves roles for each profile. map: Transforms the roles documents to extract their IDs. tap: A handy operator where we can perform side effects like logging or updating without altering the data stream. combineLatest: Combines all the role observables into one stream. Note: If you encounter deprecation warnings for combineLatest, look into switching to combineLatestWith in RxJS V7. Step 3: Displaying Data Now that we have structured data containing both profiles and their respective roles, you can easily display this information in your Angular template using *ngFor. For example: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] Conclusion In this post, we've explored how to retrieve a collection and its subcollection in Firebase using AngularFire. This approach ensures that your data remains reactive and up-to-date, which is crucial for dynamic web applications. By cleverly utilizing observables and reactive programming principles, you can efficiently manage data in your Angular projects.
