How to get document data in node-appwrite
TypeScript
const doc = await databases.createDocument(
DATABASE_ID,
USERS_COLLECTIONS_ID,
ID.unique(),
{ user_id: user.user.$id },
);
// how to get attribute data/values of doc????
Like this for example, how would I obtain the DATA like user_id (and other default values) from the document I just created.....
TL;DR
Developers are struggling to retrieve attribute data/values from a document just created in a node-appwrite project. The Appwrite Documentation lack clarity in this regard. To get attribute data, utilize the `doc.data` method.
What did you see when you logged doc?
Oh I see the values, the Appwrite Documentation never said that there could be more properties in the object
I thought there were other functions to obtain the value.
I'm a newbie with databases and all of this
Yes, your document is returned along with all of its data.
It's sort of mentioned here too https://appwrite.io/docs/products/databases/quick-start#create-documents
