cache query about paginate_firestore HOT 5 CLOSED

If you set the "isLive" parameter to true it uses snapshots() instead of get(). snapshots() loads from cache by default correct? Only triggers reads if there has been an update?

from paginate_firestore.

As @m-j-g mentioned, you can set isLive to true which will use snapshots which in turn helps with caching.

Thanks for using the package. Feel free to reopen if you face any similar issues.

Thanks @excogitatr @m-j-g for the answer, I know that snapshots loads from cache by default, but when offline more than 30 minutes the snapshots will read data again from server, I'm fine to close issue for now

Firstly, thanks for putting this package together, literally saved me!

Regarding this issue, how feasible is it to allow users to set a timeout on whether or not we're fetching from the cache or server?

In the case of data that won't be stale for a few days, we could drastically reduce document reads but this would obviously be quite project specific.

Thanks
