Firebase Realtime Database not saving data when I add "location.replace"
Solution 1:
The update
function is asyncronous; it will take some time to complete. If you want to wait until the update is done, then you will need to use the promise it returns:
var updates = {};
updates['/users/' + document.getElementById('username').value] = data;
firebase.database().ref().update(updates)
.then(() => {
console.log('Saved successfully');
location.replace('nextpage.html');
});
Or with async
/await
:
async function someFunction () {
var updates = {};
updates['/users/' + document.getElementById('username').value] = data;
await firebase.database().ref().update(updates);
console.log("Saved successfully")
location.replace("nextpage.html");
}
