How to Add Map Data to Cloud Firestore in Flutter?
When working with Flutter and Cloud Firestore, developers often encounter the need to store complex data structures, such as maps. This post will guide you through the process of adding user data, specifically a user's name, which is structured as a map, to Firestore.
Understanding the Problem
You may already have your User and Name model classes set up, but inserting data into Cloud Firestore can be tricky if you're unsure how to manage nested objects like maps. In this case, you want to add a user's first and last name structured as a map when registering a new user.
The Models
Here are the relevant model classes to give you context:

The Solution
To solve the problem of adding a full user object with a mapped name to Firestore, you only need to modify the onPressed method of your button. Here's how you can do it:

Breakdown of Changes
Creating a Name Instance: Inside the User constructor, pass an instance of the Name class that contains both the first name and last name. This is done by providing firstName and lastName from the respective controllers (i.e., firstNameController.text and lastNameController.text).
Validation: Before executing the service call, ensure that the form is validated to avoid saving incomplete data.
Service Call: After creating the User object, use the DatabaseService to add the user data to Firestore.
Conclusion
Adding map data to Cloud Firestore in Flutter is straightforward once you understand how to structure your models and integrate them within your service layer. By following the steps outlined above, you should be able to efficiently store complex objects, like a user's name, directly into your Firestore database.
If you follow this guide and adapt the code snippets to your application, you will be well on your way to building a robust data storage solution.
