Summary of Changes

Hello @jonathanedey, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the Firestore client by introducing support for multiple named databases. It provides a new API method, FirestoreWithDatabase, allowing developers to specify a target database when initializing a Firestore client. This change is accompanied by thorough unit and integration tests to ensure the reliability and correct behavior of the new multi-database capabilities, facilitating more flexible and scalable Firestore interactions.

Highlights

  • Multi-Database Support: Introduced a new FirestoreWithDatabase method to the App struct, enabling the creation of firestore.Client instances for specific named Cloud Firestore databases.
  • Enhanced Testing: Added comprehensive unit tests for the new FirestoreWithDatabase function, covering successful client creation and error handling for missing project IDs. New integration tests were also added to validate multi-database functionality, including concurrent operations on different databases.
  • Integration Test Refinements: Updated existing integration tests to utilize new test data structures and improved the TestServerTimestamp to correctly verify the type of server-generated timestamps.

Code Review

This pull request introduces support for multiple named databases in Cloud Firestore by adding a FirestoreWithDatabase method. The implementation maintains backward compatibility by having the existing Firestore method call the new one with the default database ID. The changes are well-tested with new unit and integration tests. My review includes a couple of suggestions for the new integration tests to improve maintainability and adhere to Go's testing best practices.

Thank you! Added a few comments.


// This test requires a non-default database to exist in the project.
// If it doesn't exist, this test will fail.
client, err := app.FirestoreWithDatabaseID(ctx, "testing-database")

Let's make testing-database a const (instead of a string here) and add a note to CONTRIBUTING.md to help setup integration test projects in the future.

// If it doesn't exist, this test will fail.
client, err := app.FirestoreWithDatabaseID(ctx, "testing-database")
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)

Let's add a log here explaining the custom database might not exists in the integration project. Helps with debugging if you are setting up the workflow for the first time.

This feels repetitive. Doesn't TestFirestoreWithDatabaseID and TestFirestore cover this?

Why do we need a separate test to check the server timestamp?
