NormalizedCollection orderBy

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Hello,
I blocked for some days to retrieve data from Firebase in descending order and in relation to the connected user:

Firebase :

{
  "Chats": {
    "chats_1000": {
      "FriendChat": {
          "user_1": true,
          "user_2": true
      },
      "chatDate": 1466755200,
      "chatId": "chats_1000"
    }
  },
  "user": {
    "user_1": {
      "name": "test",
      "chats": {
        "chats_1000": true
      }
    }
  }
}

Controller

 var ref = new Firebase("https://name.firebaseio.com/");


      var norm = new Firebase.util.NormalizedCollection(
        [ref.child('user/' + userId + '/chats'), 'chat'],
        [ref.child('Chats').orderByChild("dateTime"), 'Chats.chatId', 'chat']
      );

      var ref = norm.select('chat.chatId').ref();
      ref.once("value", function (snap) {
          console.log('chat'+snap.val());
      });

I have no error but no return Firebase .
If I exchange the two links Firebase I 'm conversation sorted in chronological order , but I have every conversation. I would just have the user logged conversations :

Controller

 var ref = new Firebase("https://name.firebaseio.com/");


      var norm = new Firebase.util.NormalizedCollection(
        [ref.child('Chats').orderByChild("dateTime"), 'Chats'],
        [ref.child('user/' + userId + '/chats'), 'chat', 'Chats.chatId']
      );

      var ref = norm.select('Chats.chatId').ref();
      ref.once("value", function (snap) {
          console.log('chat'+snap.val());
      });

I thank you in advance

This is pretty old, so I assume you have fixed this by now.

The error is on the line calling the chat id's from the user.

[ref.child('user/' + userId + '/chats'), 'chat'],

you need to have 'Chats' instead of 'chat' as on the line calling the chats you have put 'Chats.chatId'.

Hope this helps.
