I want to add a collection within a document, I searched a lot over google but I haven't found any proper resolution. Even searched firebase documentation but no results for my query.
I have tried different ways to add a collection to a document, below is an example of my code.
let tmpObj = {
title: vm.pageTitle,
creationDate: dt.getTime()
};
this.db.collection("pages").doc("page_"+this.bookId).collection("Test").add(tmpObj);
Also, I even tried
let mainCollection = this.db.collection("pages").doc("page_"+ this.bookId).collection("test").valueChanges();
let subcollection = mainCollection.push(tmpObj);
// This is also not working for me
In the above code db is public db: AngularFirestore Please find the attached screenshot to see where I want to add the collection (highlighted it).
Structure I need is Collection -> Document -> Collection
The below code sufficed my needs and with this code now I can create as many nested collections within each documents.
tmpObj = {
title: vm.pageTitle,
desc: description,
creationDate: dt.getTime()
}
this.db.collection('pages').doc("pages_"+ this.bookId).collection<any>("AllPages").doc("page_"+ dt.getTime()).set({tmpObj})
.then(function() {
console.log("Pages Created successfully!");
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.error("Error writing document: ", error);
});
