Getting Started

// get your firebase config from:
// https://console.firebase.google.com
const firebaseConfig = {

    authDomain: '',
    projectId: '',
    storageBucket: '',
    messagingSenderId: '',
    appId: ''
}

const firebaseApp = initializeApp( firebaseConfig )

// only supports top level collections currently
// feel free to open a PR to add support for subcollections
const collectionName = 'foobar'

const documentSchema = z.object( {
    name: z.string(),
    exp: z.number(),
} )
type DocumentData = z.infer<typeof documentSchema>
// type DocumentData = {
//     name: string
//     exp: number
// }

const collection = freerstore.getCollection( {
    firebaseApp,
    name: collectionName,
    documentSchema,
} )

const unsubscribe = collection.onSnapshot( resultsMap => {
    // resultsMap: Map<string, z.SafeParseReturnType>

    // Do something with the results
    resultsMap.forEach( ( result, id ) => {

            //     freerstore: {
            //         modifiedAt: string /* ISO date string */
            //     }
