I am trying to get the orderid that I have stored on the Realtime Database of Firebase. For getting the data I have been using the firebase.database().transaction() method to avoid use conflicts between realtime use.

All I am trying to do is that get the id to assign it to the current order, then increment it by +1, and then return it to the firebase again. But the problem is that whenever I try to assign that value through the transaction method, I get a null or undefined object.

It does increment the value stored on firebase, but doesn't give an appropriate value to assign to the order object.

So, what can I do to get this done more efficiently?

here's the code I have been using to get the job done:

await firebase.database().ref().child("Order_Id").transaction((value) = > {
  //Sending data to firebase to book the order 
  firebaseRef.child(value).set({
    Appliance_Name: item.title,
    Service_Requested: orderData.serviceType,
    Image: orderData.uploadedImage,
    User_Problem: orderData.problem,
    Location: orderData.latitude + " , " + orderData.longitude,
    Status: "Booked",
    Time: dateTime,
    Assign: ""
  });
  return value + 1;
});
