Getting started #

Installation

Add this line to pubspec.yaml

dependencies:
firestore_api_parser: <latest_version>

Import package

import 'package:firestore_api_parser/firestore_api_parser.dart';

Usage #

A simple usage example. For a more concrete and detailed example, please consult the example file.

import 'package:firestore_api_parser/firestore_api_parser.dart';

main() {
  // normal Json format
  final Map<String, dynamic> myJsonModel = {
    'names': {
      'firstname': 'James',
      'lastname': 'Bond',
      'initial': 'JB'
    },
    'missions': [{'2021': 'No Time To Die'}, {'2015': 'Spectre'}, {'2006': 'Casino Royale'}]
    'totalMissions': 3,
  };

  //Initialize the FirestoreApiParser
  final fParser = FirestoreApiParser();

  // Use the toFirestoreJson() method to convert a Json to Cloud Firestore document Json format
  // and pass it your json 
  final firestoreJson = fParser.toFirestoreJson(json: jb.toJson());
  print(firestoreJson); //will print data as firestore json format

  print('\n------------SEPARATOR------------\n');

  // Use the toJson() method to convert a Cloud Firestore document json to a normal json
  //and pass it the firestore json format
  final json = fParser.toJson(firestoreJson: firestoreJson);
  print(json);
}

Additional information #

  • In order for a string to be recognized as a referenceValue by the firestore_api_parser package as well as by cloud firestore, your string must start with projects/ . This means that all strings starting with projects/ are considered as a referenceValue

i.e: these strings will be stored as a referenceValue in cloud firestore


final String str = 'projects/my_great_project/databases/(default)/documents/';
final String myString = 'projects/anything';
  • To store a value of type geoPoint, you must create a map that contains only 2 keys longitude and latitude and their values

i.e:


final goodGeoPointValue = {'longitude': -86, 'latitude': -64};
  • To store data as a timestampValue, you need to pass the date in isoString format like YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ. If the conversion of the date to the firestore json format fails, the value is stored as a stringValue
