Angularfirecollection return object instead of array

Question

Before using angularFireCollection() I was using angularFire(). But angularFire listening on value instead of childs so someone suggest me to use angularFireCollection.

But now angularFireCollection return arrays. =.=

So any idea in this situation?

I want my data return in objects and listening on childs.

To access the key names from the array returned by angularFireCollection, you can use the $id property:

<ul>
  <li ng-repeat="item in items">{{item.$id}}: {{item.val}}</li>
</ul>
<script>
  $scope.items = angularFireCollection(new Firebase(url));
</script>
