[FEATURE REQUEST] read only when something changed #385

Closed QonDonion closed 4 months ago

QonDonion commented 4 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. well i'm testing the webRTC and needed to store the Offer somewhere and i chose the fireStore database, but i only want to read the database only when an Answer is added to the database

Describe the solution you'd like i want like the onSnapshot() function https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/query-data/listen it does the cool thing!!

Describe alternatives you've considered there's this signal called 'update_document' in 'FirestoreCollection' but it only fires when the game updates the database and not when the database updated

Additional context Screenshot_259 Screenshot_258 yeah

Unfortunately, we cannot do such a thing! I wish we could as well. That doesn't exist via the REST API, otherwise it would definitely have been implemented ages ago. I'd handle that either by making a Cloud Function that listens for changes to them and puts a change into the realtime database (which does support it), or just use the realtime database directly. I'm going to go ahead and close this as it's not possible for us to implement it. For more, see the list of possible methods that we can/have implemented here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/reference/rest/
