feat(storage): pass file metadata through uploadFile to storage.put

[georgeMorales]

I'm doing login with facebook and when I enter the profile image in firebase storage I get a file with extension application / octet-stream, I need this file to have jpg, jpeg, png image format ... How can I put contentType?

const firebaseLib = getFirebase() const imageName = uuid.v4(); const path =${user.uid}/user_images`
const options = {
name: imageName,
};
const response = await urlToBlob(user.photoURL + '?type=large');

//upload the file to firebase storage
let uploadedFile = await firebaseLib.uploadFile(path, response, null, options)
// console.log('uploadedFile', uploadedFile);
// get url of image de firebase storage
let downloadURL = await uploadedFile.uploadTaskSnapshot.ref.getDownloadURL();
`

You can specify contentType as part of your call as shown in the firebase storage docs

Thank you for your reply @prescottprue ... Yes, I've tried it several times but it does not work.
const newMetadata = { contentType: 'image/jpeg' } let uploadedFile = await firebaseLib.uploadFile(path, response, newMetadata, options);

@JorgeMoralesLopez It actually appears that file metadata wasn't being passed along, so I started to work on that as a new feature for an upcoming version. The new syntax will look like so:

const storagePath = 'avatars'
const dbPath = 'avatarFilesInfo'
const fileMetadata = { contentType: 'image/jpeg' }

firebase
  .uploadFile(storagePath, file, dbPath, { metadata: fileMetadata })
  .then(() => {
    console.log('File uploaded successfully')
  })

Thank you @prescottprue, I'm glad to hear that I was not on the wrong path because I searched the web and tried many ways.
If I upgrade to the new version, would I have to update other libraries like firebase, redux, react-redux, redux-firestore, thunk?
