Database in ForgeStack
ForgeStack provides built-in support for Firebase Firestore, allowing you to easily perform type-safe database operations like adding, reading, and deleting documents.
Using the useDatabase.ts
The useDatabase.ts utility wraps common Firestore operations in simplified, reusable functions that return consistent results with success, data, or error fields.
Example
import { addData, getData, deleteData } from "@/hooks/useDatabase";
interface User {
name: string;
email: string;
}
// Add a user
await addData<User>("users", {
name: "name",
email: "email",
});
// Get a user
const result = await getData<User>("users/user123");
if (result.success && result.data) {
console.log("User email:", result.data.email);
}
//Get All Users (From Firestore)
useEffect(() => {
const fetchData = async () => {
const result = await getCollection<User[]>("users");
if (result.success) {
setList(result.data);
} else {
console.error(result.error);
}
};
fetchData();
}, []);
// Delete a user
await deleteData("users/user123");
