How to add collection within document + angularfire2 + angular5

Question

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

Answer 1

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);
});

Answer 2

请尝试 ：

this.db.collection(`pages/page_${this.bookId}/Test`).add(tmpOb);

Answer 3

Please try this template

await this.db.collection('mainCollectionName').doc("mainDocID").set(obj);
await this.db.doc('mainCollectionName/mainDocID').collection('subCollectionName').doc('subDocumentID').set(subCollectionObj);
