Query Document 在 Flutter 的 Firestore 中获取特定 collections 的快照

Question

I am using Firebase Cloud Firestore as the database for my app. The data structure is as below

expenses (collection)

     |____[userId] (doc)

                 |___[year-month] collection

                                |___[expenseId] doc

                                               |______expense fields(amount, date)

How can I get all expenses from a [userId] doc for specific [year-month] collections.

Is there a way to query a doc like we have.where for collection

Answer 1

You have nested collections in your database, right? you can simply chain collection and doc until you get the specific target, since it's not clear what is code variables and what is plain text names, I will assume that all documents and collections names are text, just to so you get the idea:

// This is the reference of a the "year-month" expenses of the user.
Query query = FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('expenses').doc("userId").collection("year-month");

this will get you a QuerySnapshot containing all documents inside the collection with that "year-month":

QuerySnapshot = await query.get()

You can also get a specific document in that collection like this:

DocumentReference doc = await query.doc("expenseId").get();
