Details
=======
Firestore is a Python Object-Document/Object-Collections Mapper for working with Google Firestore.
The Flexible, Extremely Scalable, realtime database by Google.
You can find some documentation at https://firestore.readthedocs.io - and there
is also a `quickstart tutorial <https://firestore.readthedocs.io/quickstart.html>`_.


Offline Support
===============
Firestore currently uses an in-memory data store
to simulate access to Google Firestore
when working offline. There is an optimistic persistence
to disk and the contents can be
seen in the /projectdir/localfire directory.
Deleting this directly means you lose all the
data you might have saved prior to removing the directory from disk.
Make sure to make a copy of this directory if you want to keep a
copy of your data and you are
encouraged to contribute i.e. open an issue, submit a pull request if
you want to offer a helping hand.


Installation
============
We recommend the use of virtual environments e.g. `virtualenv <https://virtualenv.pypa.io/>`_ to control
your package management. Installation of Firestore is
easily done ``pip install -U firestore`` and requires
`pip <https://pip.pypa.io/>`_. to be installed.
Otherwise, you can download the source code from `GitHub <http://github.com/workenvoy/firestore>`_ and
run ``python setup.py install``.


Dependencies
============
We tried to keep the dependencies to a minimum, and all dependencies are available using `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/>`_.
The only dependencies you require to use Firestore are highlighted below:

- google-cloud-firestore

If you are working with dates extensive we suggest you use a date parser:

- dateutil>=2.1.0


Examples
========
Sample Firestore Code Snippet:

.. code :: python

    from firestore import Collection, Document, Reference as Ref
    from firestore import Array
    from firestore import Integer
    from firestore import String
    from firestore.lazy import Datatype

    class SomeRootCollection(Collection):
        """Root collections inherit diectly from collection, whilst
        sub collections will inherit from a document.

        To understand this always remember in Firestore a collection can never be
        a child of another collection, and a sub-collection will always live
        under a document.
        To have mongo style sub-collections use the Map datatype
        """
        pass


    class User(SomeRootCollection):
        __private__ = ["password"]

        first_name = String(required=True)
        middle_name = Datatype(datatype="String")  # You can use Datatype in place of more specific types
        last_name = Datatype("StrInG")  # Case insensitive
        age = Integer(minimum=0)
        photos = Reference('Photo')
        password = String(minimum=6)  # private fields can not be viewed with get_XXX methods


    class Photo(User):
        """This creates a photos subcollection under the User document for documents
        under the root collection"""
        id = String(required=True, id=True)  # omit to have id auto-generated by cloud firestore
        photo_urls = Array()
        # this is valid as well - photo_urls = Datatype("array")


    # Create a text-based post
    >>> user = User()
    >>> user.first_name = "Alan"
    >>> user.last_name = "Turing"
    >>> user.photos.append("https://cloudinary.com/img.jpg")
    >>>
    >>> # this will persist user and photo at
    >>> # once unlike user.save that will save only user
    >>> user.persist()

    # Sometimes you want one thing to succeed before doing another
    >>> user.photos.safe_save()  # only saves if parent was prior saved else fails
    >>> user.photos.save()  # saves regardless

    # You can also save a photo by itself and query easily
    >>> photo = Photo()
    >>> photo.parent = user
    >>> photo.save()  # save only photo
    >>> photo.parent.save()
