How to use

Just use JavaScript to manage the database.

• You can use one-line commands

console.log(
  await db
    .collection("users")
    .get()
    .then(({ docs }) => docs.map((e) => e.data()))
);

const users = await db.collection("users").get();
console.log(users.docs.map((e) => e.data()));

• You can insert multi-line scripts

// command 1 (use Ctrl + V to input multiline code)
const users = await db.collection("users").get();
const arr = users.docs.map((e) => e.data());
console.log(arr);

• You can assign the result of a command to variables and use them in another command

// command 1
const users = await db.collection("users").get();

// command 2
const arr = users.docs.map((e) => e.data());

// command 3
console.log(arr);

• You can output the result of the command to the console (you can study the structures and utility properties and methods of objects)

console.log(await db.collection("users").get());

• You can even execute your script from a file using require();

require("../my_migration_script.js").run();

my_migration_script.js

const admin = require("firebase-admin");

module.exports.run = async () => {
  const users = await admin.firestore().collection("users").get();
  const arr = users.docs.map((e) => e.data());
  console.log(arr);
};
