Query by reference key not working

[weiztech]

User(Models):
    fields

Address(Models):
    user = ReferenceField(User, auto_load=False)

I checked on firestore the reference field value is key or user.key tried to query like below but not working.

Address.collection.filter(user=user.key).get()

I found the model missing DocumentReference on filter/query.

tried using firestore directly, on get/query User it always return the DocumentReference, then it can be use to query reference type on Address.

is it possible to get DocumentReference on the query/get User model ?

found it user_instance._meta._referenceDoc, it would be great if the _reference available on instance class.

but it seems not thread safety to use the property directly, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for this effort but I think adding document reference is not good usually when you have to store it and retrieve it back when needed. Mostly when you create cursor it's hard to store doc ref instead of this we have to use the key which is a str easy to store and all most in all cases we are using key to save, update and delete etc.

And I think it is easy to use key you can do it like you want before

Address.collection.filter(user=user.key).get()

I fixed this in new version v.1.3.7
