Let's get started!

```sh
npm i nestjs-fireorm
```

This module is based on [Fireorm]. The [FireORM documentation][fireorm-docs] is a great resource to
understand how `nestjs-fireorm` works. You'll need to add `nestjs-fireorm` to your root module,
which you can do like this:

```typescript
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { FireormModule } from 'nestjs-fireorm';

@Module({
  imports: [
    FireormModule.forRoot({
      fireormSettings: { validateModels: true },
    }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

_There are other examples, which you can find in our repository [app.module.ts][app-module]._

To improve developer readability, we suggest using the same semantics as defined in [Nest's
documentation on database][nest-db]. Like, when creating a User type, we suggest using the name
`user.entity.ts`:

```typescript
import { Collection } from 'fireorm';

@Collection()
export class UserEntity {
  id!: string;
}
```

Read more about [Fireorm's core concepts][fireorm-core] on how _entities_ should be defined.

Entities has to be imported in your module, and we expose a simple method to do this, which looks like
this:

```typescript
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { FireormModule } from 'nestjs-fireorm';
import { User } from './entities/user.entity';

@Module({
  imports: [FireormModule.forFeature([User])],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

We'll need to inject the [repository]. `nestjs-fireorm` comes with a special `InjectRepository`
function, which is used like this:

```typescript
constructor(
  @InjectRepository(User)
  private users: BaseFirestoreRepository<User>
) {}
```
