bug(firestore): logging in deletes any custom fields on user object

[izakfilmalter]

My reactReduxFirebase Config:

    reactReduxFirebase(firebase, {
      userProfile: 'users',
      useFirestoreForProfile: true,
      enableLogging: false,
    })

When I use Firestore for my profile, and I write any custom data to it and end up with a profile similare to this:

{
  displayName: 'Rick Sanchez',
  email: 'rick@rickandmorty.com',
  membership: {
    QvXyh688YNV29QuhCTXeOXnHt282: true,
    T8Wh9CMHIxT1f9mA5oEETNrOOlt1: true,
  }
}

When I logout and log back in my profile looks like this:

{
  displayName: 'Rick Sanchez',
  email: 'rick@rickandmorty.com',
}

I can get around this by changing my reactReduxFirebase Config to the following, but that is less than optimal:

    reactReduxFirebase(firebase, {
      userProfile: 'users',
      useFirestoreForProfile: true, // Store in Firestore instead of Real Time DB
      enableLogging: false,
      updateProfileOnLogin: false,
    })

@izakfilmalter I was not able to replicate. Which version of react-redux-firebase and redux-firestore are you running?

Are you setting the custom profile params somewhere else other than on login?

[izakfilmalter]

Versions:

"react-redux-firebase": "^2.0.0-rc.1",
"redux-firestore": "latest",

I'm doing it after a user logs in. Basically it's to manage organization membership within the app. When a user initially logs in, I check if they are apart of an organization, if not, they create one and then I store the orgs id in the membership object. Once that user logs out, and logs back in, it gets wiped. I was using the realtime db before and then it worked fine, once I switched to firestore it started clearing it out.

I am doing this directly via the following call:

    firebase
      .firestore()
      .collection('users')
      .doc(uid)
      .update({
        [`membership.${organizationId}`]: true,
      });

@izakfilmalter Ok, cool. What you are describing should totally work (as you said it did before with Real Time DB). Will try to replicate with that info and get back to you.

profileFactory may also be helpful in the meantime.

Thanks - Its a huge help to report bugs with the Firestore integration since it is still young.

I can confirm this is an issue. #319 (comment)

As mentioned by @jacobfunch in #319 it would help to have an option to merge.
