We’re trying to run a script on could-shell to create a new firestore collection in native mode.

However it creates it in datastore default mode.

What should be change in our flags? --type=firestore-native

Code:

create_firestore() {
  DB_EXISTS=$(gcloud firestore databases list --filter="name=projects/'$PROJECT_ID'/databases/'$DB_NAME'" --format="get(name)")
  if [[ ! -n $DB_EXISTS ]]; then
    echo -e "n${COLOR}Creating Firestore...${NC}"
    gcloud firestore databases create 
      --database=$DB_NAME 
      --location=$DB_REGION 
      --type=firestore-native
  else
    echo -e "n${COLOR}Firestore exists.${NC}"
  fi
}

I saw we can switch modes when the DB is empty.
And this also shows we’re using the right flag then.
