I'm looking to order the docs that are received from Firestore from oldest to newest. I'm using JS getTime() to set a field within the docs I'm trying to order and im using this code:
onSnapshot(collection(db, 'guides'), orderBy('timeStamp'), (snapshot) => { console.log(snapshot.docs); });
I feel like im doing everything right and have spend ages trying to figure this out. What am i doing wrong?
The following should do the trick:
const q = query(collection(db, 'guides'), orderBy('timeStamp'));
onSnapshot(q, (querySnapshot) => {
querySnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(doc.data()));
});
});
Note that we pass only two parameters to onSnapshot()
(including the callback) while you pass three.
