FirestoreAdminClient

FirestoreAdminClient

Operations are created by service FirestoreAdmin, but are accessed via service google.longrunning.Operations.

Constructor

new FirestoreAdminClient(optionsopt)

Construct an instance of FirestoreAdminClient.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
options object <optional>

The configuration object. The options accepted by the constructor are described in detail in this document. The common options are:

Properties
Name Type Attributes Description
credentials object <optional>

Credentials object.

Properties

client_email string <optional>
private_key string <optional>
email string <optional>

Account email address. Required when using a .pem or .p12 keyFilename.
keyFilename string <optional>

Full path to the a .json, .pem, or .p12 key downloaded from the Google Developers Console. If you provide a path to a JSON file, the projectId option below is not necessary. NOTE: .pem and .p12 require you to specify options.email as well.
port number <optional>

The port on which to connect to the remote host.
projectId string <optional>

The project ID from the Google Developer's Console, e.g. 'grape-spaceship-123'. We will also check the environment variable GCLOUD_PROJECT for your project ID. If your app is running in an environment which supports Application Default Credentials, your project ID will be detected automatically.

listFields(request, optionsopt) → {Promise}

Lists the field configuration and metadata for this database.

Currently, FirestoreAdmin.ListFields only supports listing fields that have been explicitly overridden. To issue this query, call FirestoreAdmin.ListFields with the filter set to indexConfig.usesAncestorConfig:false.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
request Object

The request object that will be sent.

Properties
Name Type Description
parent string

Required. A parent name of the form projects/{project_id}/databases/{database_id}/collectionGroups/{collection_id}
filter string

The filter to apply to list results. Currently, FirestoreAdmin.ListFields only supports listing fields that have been explicitly overridden. To issue this query, call FirestoreAdmin.ListFields with the filter set to indexConfig.usesAncestorConfig:false.
pageSize number

options object <optional>

Call options. See CallOptions for more details.
Returns:
Type Description
Promise
  • The promise which resolves to an array. The first element of the array is Array of Field. The client library will perform auto-pagination by default: it will call the API as many times as needed and will merge results from all the pages into this array. Note that it can affect your quota. We recommend using listFieldsAsync() method described below for async iteration which you can stop as needed. Please see the documentation for more details and examples.

listFieldsAsync(request, optionsopt) → {Object}

Equivalent to listFields, but returns an iterable object.

for-await-of syntax is used with the iterable to get response elements on-demand.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description

The request object that will be sent.

Properties
Name Type Description
parent string

Required. A parent name of the form projects/{project_id}/databases/{database_id}/collectionGroups/{collection_id}

options object <optional>

Call options. See CallOptions for more details.
Returns:
Type Description
Object

An iterable Object that allows async iteration. When you iterate the returned iterable, each element will be an object representing Field. The API will be called under the hood as needed, once per the page, so you can stop the iteration when you don't need more results. Please see the documentation for more details and examples.
Example
const iterable = client.listFieldsAsync(request);
for await (const response of iterable) {
  // process response
