In Ionic(AngularFire2) application, for every page i need to get Firebase User UID, to get related data from Firebase database. For example, on Firebase there is a node('/users') and its key is FireBase Auth User UID.
{
"users" : {
"LYW6i8sTbWauCvkXULIbszIWOdm1" : {
"cellPhone" : "123321",
"name" : "Name1",
"userType" : "0"
},
"i4KSAzO2UhakowLKOZCa0ZeohRH3" : {
"cellPhone" : "43343",
"name" : "Name2",
"userType" : "1"
}
}
}
I am using observables to get the UID, for every page again and again. I think there will be lots of subscriber and everytime ionic application makes request to Firebase Auth Server to get user UID ?
For example.
export class AccountProfilePage {
user = {} as User
constructor(public navCtrl: NavController, public navParams: NavParams,
private afDb:AngularFireDatabase, private afAuth:AngularFireAuth) {
}
updateProfile(){
this.afAuth.authState.subscribe(authState=>{
this.afDb.object('users/'+authState.uid).update({
cellPhone:this.user.cellPhone
})
})
}
}
Is it the correct way ?
