collection function has no generic type

[zadokdaniel]

Version info

Angular:
12.2.0
Firebase:
9.4.0
AngularFire:
7.2.0

How to reproduce these conditions

import {
collection,
} from '@angular/fire/firestore';

Expected behavior

collection suppose to receive generic type of collection documents interface. as stated in docs

import { collection } from '@angular/fire/firestore';
collection(firestore, 'foo') // CollectionReference

Actual behavior

generic type is not configured, hence causing a problem on passing to update and doc functions with the generic type of the interface set

This issue does not seem to follow the issue template. Make sure you provide all the required information.

I was also surprised, since the other functions are generic. As a workaround u can type it for now manually:

protected readonly resumesCollection = collection( this.firestore, 'resumes' ) as CollectionReference<Resume>;

and then those calls will infer the type

getDocs(query(this.resumesCollection, where('user', '==', user?.uid)))
