Is wrapper for Angularfire2 a good solution for custom objects?
I have a collection of gps-tracker documents in cloud firestore. When hardware gps tracker updates location it sends location to a back-end server which updates current location in cloud firestore. On the client-side I get observable for gps-tracker collection and from there display the markers on a google map. An unwanted side effect is that whenever a single gps-tracker updates, every other marker on a map gets deleted (hopefully) and created again.
Therefore I need a wrapper for each gps-tracker which will contain extra data such as map marker objects plus whatever else may be needed on client side. At this point I am trying to figure out if it is easier to subscribe to all changes in gps-tracker collections and update those gps-tracker objects that are needed. Or, subscribe to changes on individual gps-tracker document.
A year ago when I ran similar prototype/idea there was an easy solution to this with realtime database, but I can not remember what it was and whether it could be used in this case.
