Visualizaçõeshow to prevent firebase to show one message multiple time
I am using firebase to chat messaging. Where when I submit the form for sent messages, all messages are repeated and fetched from start to beginning. Here see a image below to better understanding.
Here is the code what i am actually doing.
user_chats.onSnapshot((querySnapshot) => {
querySnapshot.forEach(doc => {
user_messages.push(doc.data());
});
showMessages();
});
function showMessages()
{
for (let i =0;i<user_messages.length;i++)
{
let user_id = user_messages[i].user_id;
if (user_id == auth_id)
{
let selector = $('#my_msg .row');
selector.find('.chat').text(user_messages[i].message);
selector.clone().appendTo('.msg_area_div');
}
else{
let selector = $('#user_msg .row');
selector.find('.chat').text(user_messages[i].message);
selector.clone().appendTo('.msg_area_div');
}
}
}
Here I want to show the only new items which is pushed not all the older message Help me solve this problem. TIA
Edited
After using the solution of @Frank van Puffelen
function fetchMessage() {
let document_id = documentID();
let table = db.collection("chat").doc(document_id).collection('chats');
let user_chats = table.orderBy('created_at');
user_chats.onSnapshot((querySnapshot) => {
querySnapshot.docChanges().forEach(change => {
if (change.type === "added") {
user_messages.push(change.doc.data());
}
});
showMessages();
});
}
function showMessages() {
$('.msg_area_div').empty();
for (let i = 0; i < user_messages.length; i++) {
let active_user_id = user_messages[i].user_id;
if (active_user_id == auth_id) {
let selector = $('#my_msg .row');
selector.find('.chat').text(user_messages[i].message);
selector.clone().appendTo('.msg_area_div');
} else {
let selector = $('#user_msg .row');
selector.find('.chat').text(user_messages[i].message);
selector.clone().appendTo('.msg_area_div');
}
}
scrollDown();
}
got the result like these

Since you're looping over the QuerySnapshot itself, you're always seeing all documents inside your loop - even if there was only a single change to the snapshot.
This is a valid option, but it means you'll need to clear-and-rebuild the entire chat node each time your onSnapshot gets called. You can do this by clearing the HTML in your showMessages by clearing .msg_area_div before adding the messages with:
$('.msg_area_div').empty();
Alternatively, you can use the lower-level properties to process only the documents that were added, changed or deleted with:
snapshot.docChanges().forEach((change) => {
if (change.type === "added") {
console.log("New city: ", change.doc.data());
}
if (change.type === "modified") {
console.log("Modified city: ", change.doc.data());
}
if (change.type === "removed") {
console.log("Removed city: ", change.doc.data());
}
});
