How to access authUser.uid from firebase.js

[MattHeslington]

Hello,

Apologies if this is badly worded or an entirely stupid question. I have followed this fantastic tutorial and it's working perfectly. I would now like to allow logged-in users to post content. This is all fine, but I need to name each user's collection something like .collection(${currentUser.uid}). What's the best way to access this value in my component, please?
Many thanks for any help.
Matt

Here's a screenshot of of an Android app using Cloud Firestore showing the user collection with unique id's. As you see user collection document id is unique as in phone number or e-mail!

Hello Hans,
Thank you so much for your reply. I'm sorry I didn't phrase my question correctly. I was wanting to know how, through code, do I access the authUser.uid found in firebase/firebase.js

authUser = {
uid: authUser.uid,
...
};

I would like to be able to create unique collections in Firestore for each user using their current user id from the Realtime Database. I'm at a loss at the moment. I assume it's either through using the { AuthUserContext } import or the {withFireBase } import but I'm unsure of the actual code.
Sincere regards,
Matt
