Add FirebaseObject provider about angularfire HOT 3 CLOSED

Any reason why it couldn't just be FirebaseValue, and support any kind of child value?

from angularfire.

Unless we're keeping the DataSnapshot around (which isn't a terrible idea), we'll need to transform any primitive into an object to keep the key around.

Take the following data structure:

{
  name: "Coco"
}

Then in AF2 we would do something like this:

class MyComponent {
  constructor(private af: AngularFire) {
    const obj = af.object('/name');
    obj.subscribe((data) => { 
      console.log(data);  // { value: "Coco", key: "name" }
    });
  }  
}

So we'll have to come up with a naming strategy for the value and key properties, but unless we return a DataSnapshot, we'll have to take this approach.
