Retrieving json file from Firebase Storage


Retrieving json file from Firebase Storage



I would like to be able to get a json file from Firebase Storage to work with. I don't need to push it back.



Does Firebase Storage can give me that and if so, how can I do it with Angular?



If not, does the Firebase database is a better choice?



I already downloaded firebase and angularfire2.



I tried getDownloadURL and getMetadata, but don't know how to get the info inside.



Thanks for your help!

I'd suggest you use the realtime database, I suspect that it will be simpler for you to pick up. The realtime database already stores all of it's information as JSON, so you could simply query the database and get your JSON data... but if you used the Storage portion of Firebase then you'd have to jump through some hoops to actually read the file you get and parse out the data.



Check out this documentation for examples of how to query the realtime database using Angularfire.





hi @JeremyW. I think I will go with your solution. Any idea if I could just upload my json to firebase database? I could not find any places. Thanks

@David Yep! When you're looking at the RealTime Database, look in the top right corner. You should see a plus sign, a minus sign, and 3 dots. Click the 3 dots and you'll get a dropdown... choose the import JSON option.

import JSON





Oh! I was using the Cloud Firestore and not the Real-Time database. you are right, that one has that option! Thanks.

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it. The problem is that now I am using dbeaver for mac and this guide is not working. I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select. As a result it does't select my result or anything (besides being "successful"). Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...

Opening a url is failing in Swift

Opening a url is failing in Swift breakpointing inside the callback and logging success shows false.
