Poor performance when updating thousands of data

[risalfajar]

Explain the Problem in Detail

I have thousands of items that I want to update.
Currently, there's only updateDocument() API available, which only updates a single data. Since Apps Script doesn't support parallelization (CMIIW), our only option is to call updateDocument() multiple times synchronously, which is very bad for performance.

Do you have any solution/workaround for this?

You would need to use a batchWrite operation which would encapsulate up to 500 writes.
However, this feature is not available in this repo yet. There is a Pull Request already open for that.

when is the batchWrite function coming along? I am also having the same problem. I need to run hundreds of the app script function...

[abkarino]

I have no clue.

Just posted my issue in SO - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77289105/create-or-update-firestore-collection-based-on-google-app-script

I already have that feature deployed on my fork, you can use it from there or you can do a new fork and deploy it to your own script.

I don't think this library is still maintained, the last release is three years ago.

@grahamearley would you confirm on this?

Installed your V4 library and it works like a charm :)

I apologize on the lack of maintenance. I have scheduled time to work on this within the coming week to address and catch up to all the issues. I'm aware of @abkarino's changes and should be incorporating them into a release as well. Thanks for your patience! :)
