GeoPint is not implemented

[saoron]

Version info

Angular: 5.2.x

Firebase: ^4.8.2

AngularFire: 5.0.0-rc.7

Description

AngularFire doesn't have GeoPoint interface

Expected behavior

import { AngularFirestore, AngularFirestoreCollection } from 'angularfire2/firestore';

...

constructor(private db: AngularFirestore) {
    let point = new db.firestore.GeoPoint(32.5522, 34.556656)
}

Actual behavior

TypeError: Cannot read property 'GeoPoint' of undefined

For the types, you should import from firebase.

import * as firebase from 'firebase/app'
...
let point = new firebase.firestore.GeoPoint(32.5522, 34.556656)

The jamesdaniels solution didn't work with me, any suggestions what might be the problem?

I'm getting error
TypeError: Cannot read property 'GeoPoint' of undefined

I'm using:
"angularfire2": "^5.0.0-rc.8.0",
"firebase": "^5.0.2",

This is different in 5.0 now, you should do:

import { firestore } from 'firebase/firestore';
...
new firestore.GeoPoint ...

You are correct, GeoPint is not implemented. 🍻

I use this to make the GeoPoint work
import { firestore } from 'firebase';

let point = new firestore.GeoPoint(32.5522, 34.556656);

What is the correct way to import?

new firestore.GeoPoint ...
