VistasFirebase: Trouble getting field value
Given the following data struct in firebase, I wish to retrieve the field in just standard JS. I have tried many methods of getting it, but for some reason, I cannot. I have tried .get(), forEach(), I have tried getting a snapshop, but it won't work. At the start of my JS file I do:
const auth = firebase.auth();
const db = firebase.firestore();
let totalGroups;
db.collection('totalGroups').doc('totalGroups').get().then(function(querySnapshot) {
querySnapshot.docs.forEach(function(doc) {
if (doc.data().totalGroups != null) {
totalGroups = doc.data().totalGroups console.log("here is total groups" + totalGroups)
//Total Groups is undefined out here but defined in fuction
}
})
})
and normally I am able to get .get() just fine. I am looking for the most simple method of getting this value. thanks.

First, you are using get() on a DocumentReference which returns a DocumentSnapshot containing data of that single document only and has no docs property on it. Try refactoring the code as shown below:
db.collection('totalGroups').doc('totalGroups').get().then(function(snapshot) {
const docData = snapshot.data();
console.log(docData)
})
Also do note that if you were using get() on a CollectionReference, then it would have returned a QuerySnapshot where the existing code works fine.
