Retrieve ID of newly created user Firebase

I'm studying Angular2 and the latest version of Firebase I have the following Firebase set up in my project, which is used for creating a new user based of email and password: 

signUpUser(user: User) {
  firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(user.email, user.password).catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error);
  });
}

The user is created successfully, but how do I go about retrieving the newly created user id? I've gone through the documentation and not one section explains how I can retrieve it after the user has been created? can someone shed some light into how you go about doing this?

Managed to resolve this question my self, by adding an enhancement to the code specified in the original question: 

signUpUser(user: User) {
   firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(user.email, user.password).then(function (user) {
   console.log('uid', user.uid)
 }).catch(function (error) {
   console.log(error);
 });
}
