Methods

#end_at

def end_at() -> ::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor
Returns
  • (::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor) —

    A potential prefix of a position in the result set to end the query at.

    This is similar to START_AT but with it controlling the end position rather than the start position.

    Requires:

    • The number of values cannot be greater than the number of fields specified in the ORDER BY clause.

#end_at=

def end_at=(value) -> ::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor
Parameter
  • value (::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor) —

    A potential prefix of a position in the result set to end the query at.

    This is similar to START_AT but with it controlling the end position rather than the start position.

    Requires:

    • The number of values cannot be greater than the number of fields specified in the ORDER BY clause.
Returns
  • (::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor) —

    A potential prefix of a position in the result set to end the query at.

    This is similar to START_AT but with it controlling the end position rather than the start position.

    Requires:

    • The number of values cannot be greater than the number of fields specified in the ORDER BY clause.

#from

def from() -> ::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::CollectionSelector>
Returns

#from=

def from=(value) -> ::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::CollectionSelector>
Parameter
Returns

#limit

def limit() -> ::Google::Protobuf::Int32Value
Returns
  • (::Google::Protobuf::Int32Value) —

    The maximum number of results to return.

    Applies after all other constraints.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.

#limit=

def limit=(value) -> ::Google::Protobuf::Int32Value
Parameter
  • value (::Google::Protobuf::Int32Value) —

    The maximum number of results to return.

    Applies after all other constraints.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.
Returns
  • (::Google::Protobuf::Int32Value) —

    The maximum number of results to return.

    Applies after all other constraints.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.

#offset

def offset() -> ::Integer
Returns
  • (::Integer) —

    The number of documents to skip before returning the first result.

    This applies after the constraints specified by the WHERE, START AT, & END AT but before the LIMIT clause.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.

#offset=

def offset=(value) -> ::Integer
Parameter
  • value (::Integer) —

    The number of documents to skip before returning the first result.

    This applies after the constraints specified by the WHERE, START AT, & END AT but before the LIMIT clause.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.
Returns
  • (::Integer) —

    The number of documents to skip before returning the first result.

    This applies after the constraints specified by the WHERE, START AT, & END AT but before the LIMIT clause.

    Requires:

    • The value must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.

#order_by

def order_by() -> ::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Order>
Returns
  • (::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Order>) —

    The order to apply to the query results.

    Firestore allows callers to provide a full ordering, a partial ordering, or no ordering at all. In all cases, Firestore guarantees a stable ordering through the following rules:

    • The order_by is required to reference all fields used with an inequality filter.
    • All fields that are required to be in the order_by but are not already present are appended in lexicographical ordering of the field name.
    • If an order on __name__ is not specified, it is appended by default.

    Fields are appended with the same sort direction as the last order specified, or 'ASCENDING' if no order was specified. For example:

    • ORDER BY a becomes ORDER BY a ASC, __name__ ASC
    • ORDER BY a DESC becomes ORDER BY a DESC, __name__ DESC
    • WHERE a > 1 becomes WHERE a > 1 ORDER BY a ASC, __name__ ASC
    • WHERE __name__ > ... AND a > 1 becomes WHERE __name__ > ... AND a > 1 ORDER BY a ASC, __name__ ASC

#order_by=

def order_by=(value) -> ::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Order>
Parameter
  • value (::Array<::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Order>) —

    The order to apply to the query results.

    • WHERE a > 1 becomes WHERE a > 1 ORDER BY a ASC, __name__ ASC
    • WHERE __name__ > ... AND a > 1 becomes WHERE __name__ > ... AND a > 1 ORDER BY a ASC, __name__ ASC

#select

def select() -> ::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Projection
Returns

#select=

def select=(value) -> ::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::StructuredQuery::Projection
Parameter
Returns

#start_at

def start_at() -> ::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor
Returns
  • (::Google::Cloud::Firestore::V1::Cursor) —

    A potential prefix of a position in the result set to start the query at.

    The ordering of the result set is based on the ORDER BY clause of the original query.

    SELECT * FROM k WHERE a = 1 AND b > 2 ORDER BY b ASC, __name__ ASC;

    This query's results are ordered by (b ASC, __name__ ASC).

    Cursors can reference either the full ordering or a prefix of the location, though it cannot reference more fields than what are in the provided ORDER BY.

    Continuing off the example above, attaching the following start cursors will have varying impact:

    • START BEFORE (2, /k/123): start the query right before a = 1 AND b > 2 AND __name__ > /k/123.
    • START AFTER (10): start the query right after a = 1 AND b > 10.

    Unlike OFFSET which requires scanning over the first N results to skip, a start cursor allows the query to begin at a logical position. This position is not required to match an actual result, it will scan forward from this position to find the next document.

    Requires:

    • The number of values cannot be greater than the number of fields specified in the ORDER BY clause.
