ViewsHow can I remove an entire folder under Storage?
I have a problem deleting my entire folder on firebase storage. I always get a 'storageRef.listAll is not a function' error when I specify the reference to the path. I would like to delete the complete path with all possibly existing images.
const storage = getStorage();
const storageRef = ref(
storage,
`${aktuellerUser._id}/artikelBilder/`
);
storageRef
.listAll()
.then((listResults) => {
const promises = listResults.items.map((item) => {
return item.delete();
});
Promise.all(promises);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error);
});
error TypeError: storageRef.listAll is not a function

You are using the new Firebase Modular SDK where listAll() is a top level function and not a method on StorageReference. Similarly, you need to use deleteObject() to delete a file now instead of .delete() method as shown below:
import {
getStorage,
ref,
listAll,
deleteObject
} from "firebase/storage";
listAll(storageRef)
.then(async (listResults) => {
const promises = listResults.items.map((item) => {
return deleteObject(item);
});
await Promise.all(promises);
})
