@firebase/firestore: Firestore (5.8.0): timestampsInSnapshots

Version info

Angular: 7.2.1

Firebase: 5.8.0

AngularFire: 5.1.1

In the newest firebase version the timestampsInSnapshots setting defaults to true therefore it no longer needs to be set. This causes error/warning message in the browser console:

[2019-01-18T11:01:29.267Z] @firebase/firestore: Firestore (5.8.0): The timestampsInSnapshots setting now defaults to true and you no longer need to explicitly set it. In a future release, the setting will be removed entirely and so it is recommended that you remove it from your firestore.settings() call now.

I am new to angularfire2 and following the installation and setup guide I kept getting this error. I'm not sure if this error is preventing the code from working or if I'm just doing something wrong.

It doesn't seem like this is stopping any development for you, if it is you can explicitly change the version of firebase in your package.json.

Until @angular/fire is updated, there should be no harm in clearing that setting yourself.

Wherever you import AngularFirestoreModule...

import { FirestoreSettingsToken } from '@angular/fire/firestore';

...

{ provide: FirestoreSettingsToken, useValue: {} }

eg: app.module.ts

import { AngularFirestoreModule, FirestoreSettingsToken } from '@angular/fire/firestore';
@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
     ...
     AngularFirestoreModule,
     ...
  ],
  providers: [{ provide: FirestoreSettingsToken, useValue: {} }],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

this seems to work for everyone but i still show the error.

I imported import { AngularFirestoreModule, FirestoreSettingsToken } from '@angular/fire/firestore';

then

providers: [
   { provide: FirestoreSettingsToken, useValue: {} },
   { provide: 'SnotifyToastConfig', useValue: ToastDefaults}
]

is it possible the fix is different for RealTime Database? Here is my error

These workarounds are still necessary?

I already updated to "@angular/fire": "^5.1.2" and "firebase": "^5.10.1" and still get these warnings in console:
