 []) 
 : 
  
 FieldValue 
 ; 
 

Returns a special value that can be used with set(), create() or update() that tells the server to remove the given elements from any array value that already exists on the server. All instances of each element specified will be removed from the array. If the field being modified is not already an array it will be overwritten with an empty array.

 arrayUnion 
 (... 
 elements 
 : 
  
 unknown 
 []) 
 : 
  
 FieldValue 
 ; 
 

Returns a special value that can be used with set(), create() or update() that tells the server to union the given elements with any array value that already exists on the server. Each specified element that doesn't already exist in the array will be added to the end. If the field being modified is not already an array it will be overwritten with an array containing exactly the specified elements.

Parameter

increment(n)

  static 
  
 increment 
 (

 number 
 ) 
 : 
  
 FieldValue 
 ; 
 

Returns a special value that can be used with set(), create() or update() that tells the server to increment the the field's current value by the given value.

If either current field value or the operand uses floating point precision, both values will be interpreted as floating point numbers and all arithmetic will follow IEEE 754 semantics. Otherwise, integer precision is kept and the result is capped between -2^63 and 2^63-1.

If the current field value is not of type 'number', or if the field does not yet exist, the transformation will set the field to the given value.
