Currently, when a user signs up they are being created as a user in the firebase authentication. I am trying to add that newly created user directly into a firestore collection upon creation.
The following is the AuthContext.js
import React, { useContext, useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { auth } from "../firebase";
const AuthContext = React.createContext();
export function useAuth() {
return useContext(AuthContext);
}
export function AuthProvider({ children }) {
const [currentUser, setCurrentUser] = useState();
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
function signup (email, password) {
return auth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email, password);
}
function login(email, password) {
return auth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(email, password);
}
function logout() {
return auth.signOut();
}
function resetPassword(email) {
return auth.sendPasswordResetEmail(email);
}
function updateEmail(email) {
return currentUser.updateEmail(email);
}
function updatePassword(password) {
return currentUser.updatePassword(password);
}
useEffect(() => {
const unsubscribe = auth.onAuthStateChanged((user) => {
setCurrentUser(user);
setLoading(false);
});
return unsubscribe;
}, []);
const value = {
currentUser,
login,
signup,
logout,
resetPassword,
updateEmail,
updatePassword,
};
return (
<AuthContext.Provider value={value}>
{!loading && children}
</AuthContext.Provider>
);
}
The following is Signup.js
import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react'
import { Form, Button, Card, Alert } from "react-bootstrap"
import { Link, useHistory } from "react-router-dom"
import { useAuth } from './contexts/AuthContext'
export default function Signup() {
const emailRef = useRef()
const passwordRef = useRef()
const passwordConfirmRef = useRef()
const { signup } = useAuth()
const [error, setError] = useState("")
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false)
const history = useHistory()
async function handleSubmit(e){
e.preventDefault()
if (passwordRef.current.value !==
passwordConfirmRef.current.value) {
return setError('Passwords do not match')
}
try{
setError('')
setLoading(true)
await signup(emailRef.current.value,passwordRef.current.value)
history.push("/")
} catch {
setError('Failed to create an account')
}
setLoading(false)
}
return (
<>
<Card>
<Card.Body>
<h2 className="text-center mb-4">Sign Up</h2>
{error && <Alert variant="danger">{error}</Alert>}
<Form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
<Form.Group id="email">
<Form.Label>Email</Form.Label>
<Form.Control type="email" ref={emailRef} required />
</Form.Group>
<Form.Group id="password">
<Form.Label>Password</Form.Label>
<Form.Control type="password" ref={passwordRef} required />
</Form.Group>
<Form.Group id="password-confirm">
<Form.Label>Password Confirmation</Form.Label>
<Form.Control type="password" ref={passwordConfirmRef} required />
</Form.Group>
<Button disabled={loading} className="w-100" type="submit">
Sign Up
</Button>
</Form>
<div className="w-100 text-center mt-2">
Already have an account? <Link to="/login">Log In</Link>
</div>
</Card.Body>
</Card>
</>
)
}
Thank you in advance, any help will be greatly appreciated.
