All I want to do is to get a row (so called 'doc') from a data base.
so far, I have tried:
all with the 'aref'
const aref = firebase
.firestore()
.collection("polja")
.where("id", "==", match.params.id);
console.log(aref);
function getIt() {
const item = [];
setLoading(true);
aref.get().then((doc) => {
const data = doc.data();
setItem(item);
console.log(item);
setLoading(false);
});
}
useEffect(() => {
getIt();
}, []);
this gave the following error:

Reset to default 9To get a single document, you must specify the document ID:
firebase.firestore().collection("polja").doc(documentId).get().then((snapshot) => {
console.log(snapshot.data())
}).catch((e) => console.log(e))
Also you should not use .where() to get just a single document, but there is an issue I found in your original code.
If you look carefully, the parameter in .where() is a string "match.params.id". That seems to be a dynamic value being fetched from somewhere else. Please remove the quotes and try again.
firebase.firestore().collection("polja").where("id", "==", match.params.id).get()
.then((querySnapshot) => {
querySnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
// doc.data() is never undefined for query doc snapshots
console.log(doc.id, " => ", doc.data());
});
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log("Error getting documents: ", error);
});
Try adding a catch block as shown which might help catch any errors. Make sure your security rules also allow you to fetch the data. Also if any error is logged in the console, share a screenshot of it.
To get single document form firebase firestore you should first know if you are using the modular firebase 9.+ version or firebase version < 9.
In new modular firebase firestore(version 9.+) it should be like this:
import { getFirestore, collection, query, getDocs } from 'firebase/firestore'
async read(id) {
const firestore = getFirestore()
const docRef = doc(firestore, this.collectionPath, id)
const docSnap = await getDoc(docRef)
const data = docSnap.exists() ? docSnap.data() : null
if (data === null || data === undefined) return null
return { id, ...data }
}
If you are using not modular Firebase firestore( < version 9) then the same function should look something like this:
async read(id) {
const result = await (await firestore())
.collection(this.collectionPath)
.doc(id)
.get()
const data = result.exists ? result.data() : null
if (data === null || data === undefined) return null
return { id, ...data }
}
