## iOS Installation
|
|
|
|
### 1 - Setup google-services.plist and dependencies
|
|
Setup the `google-services.plist` file and Firebase ios frameworks first; check out the relevant Firebase docs [here](https://firebase.google.com/docs/ios/setup#frameworks).
|
|
|
|
#### 1.1 - Initialisation
|
|
Make sure you've added the following to the top of your `ios/[YOUR APP NAME]]/AppDelegate.m` file:
|
|
|
|
`#import <Firebase.h>`
|
|
|
|
and this to the `didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions` method:
|
|
|
|
`[FIRApp configure];`
|
|
|
|
### 2 - Link RNFirebase
|
|
There are multiple ways to install RNFirebase depending on how your project is currently setup:
|
|
|
|
#### 2.1 - Existing Cocoapods setup, including React Native as a pod
|
|
Simply add the following to your `Podfile`:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
# Required by RNFirebase - you should already have some of these from step 1.
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Auth'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/AppIndexing'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Core'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Crash'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Database'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/DynamicLinks'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/RemoteConfig'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Storage'
|
|
pod 'RNFirebase', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-firebase'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 2.2 - Via react-native-cli link
|
|
React native ships with a `link` command that can be used to link the projects together, which can help automate the process of linking our package environments.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
react-native link react-native-firebase
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Update the newly installed pods once the linking is done:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ios && pod update --verbose
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### cocoapods
|
|
We've automated the process of setting up with cocoapods. This will happen automatically upon linking the package with `react-native-cli`.
|
|
|
|
**Remember to use the `ios/[YOUR APP NAME].xcworkspace` instead of the `ios/[YOUR APP NAME].xcproj` file from now on**.
|
|
|
|
#### 2.3 - Manually
|
|
|
|
If you prefer not to use `react-native link`, we can manually link the package together with the following steps, after `npm install`:
|
|
|
|
**A.** In XCode, right click on `Libraries` and find the `Add Files to [project name]`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**B.** Add the `node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios/Firebase.xcodeproj`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**C.** Ensure that the `Build Settings` of the `RNFirebase.xcodeproj` project is ticked to _All_ and it's `Header Search Paths` include both of the following paths _and_ are set to _recursive_:
|
|
|
|
1. `$(SRCROOT)/../../react-native/React`
|
|
2. `$(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native/React`
|
|
3. `${PROJECT_DIR}/../../../ios/Pods`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**D.** Setting up cocoapods
|
|
|
|
Since we're dependent upon cocoapods (or at least the Firebase libraries being available at the root project -- i.e. your application), we have to make them available for RNFirebase to find them.
|
|
|
|
Using cocoapods is the easiest way to get started with this linking. Add or update a `Podfile` at `ios/Podfile` in your app with the following:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
# Required by RNFirebase
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Auth'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Analytics'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/AppIndexing'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Core'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Crash'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Database'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/DynamicLinks'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/RemoteConfig'
|
|
pod 'Firebase/Storage'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then you can run `(cd ios && pod install)` to get the pods opened. If you do use this route, remember to use the `.xcworkspace` file.
