I use the following code, to iterate over a collection of data, and change a field if the email matches. Note that the code crashes on the set. The iteration works just fine. afs is initialized as AngularFirestore
onChangeRole(email) {
this.afs.collection("users").get().toPromise().then(function (querySnapshot) {
querySnapshot.forEach(function (doc) {
// doc.data() is never undefined for query doc snapshots
console.log(doc.id, " => ", doc.data());
if (doc.data().email == email) {
this.afs.collection("users").doc(doc.id).set({
role: 2
})
}
});
});
}
But im receiving:
ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: Cannot read property 'afs' of undefined TypeError: Cannot read property 'afs' of undefined
Where afs is AngularFirestore
import { AngularFirestore, AngularFirestoreCollection , AngularFirestoreDocument} from '@angular/fire/firestore';
This should work
onChangeRole(email) {
const usersColl = this.afs.collection("users");
usersColl.get().toPromise().then(function (querySnapshot) {
querySnapshot.forEach(function (doc) {
console.log(doc.id, " => ", doc.data());
if (doc.data().email == email) {
usersColl.doc(doc.id).set(
{ role: 2 },
{ merge: true }
)
}
});
});
}
