Types

Thanks to everybody for the feedback on our flow type changes. We've made a couple of tweaks to prevent internal errors from filtering through to your apps.

v3.2.5

v3.2.5 Changelog

Types, types and more types

We've added better support for Flow by exporting the following types:

• Core: App

• Auth: ActionCodeInfo, ActionCodeSettings, AdditionalUserInfo, AuthCredential, ConfirmationResult, User, UserCredential, UserInfo and UserMetadata

• Database: DataSnapshot, OnDisconnect, Reference, Query as DataQuery

• Firestore: CollectionReference, DocumentChange, DocumentListenOptions, DocumentReference, DocumentSnapshot, FieldPath, FieldValue, GeoPoint, Query, QueryListenOptions, QuerySnapshot, SetOptions, SnapshotMetadata and WriteBatch

• We will add types for the other modules as we tidy them up.

You can import a type by doing the following:

import type { App } from 'react-native-firebase';

Feedback

At the moment, we're building and bundling the Flow types alongside our source code as part of the npm module. This makes it easier to keep up to date, but does cause some issues with different versions of Flow.

Another approach would be to start exporting libdefs to the flow-typed repository. This is a bit more involved and requires that you set up flow-typed in your projects, but would allow us to be a bit more flexible with the flow types and hide some of the internals.

v3.2.2

v3.2.2 Changelog

IMPROVED - iOS use_frameworks! support

Although use_frameworks! was working in the simplest cases, there were still some issues if it was used in a project that had React installed as a Pod rather than as a linked library.

This release adds some additional search paths to better support this use case. You will also need to make the following changes:

1. Select the RNFirebase.xcodeproj library in the Xcode navigator
2. Select the Build Phases tab
3. Under Link Binary With Libraries, add the Pods_{projectName}.framework file

This will ensure that the Pods are built before react-native-firebase and the headers are available for it to build successfully.

v3.2.0

v3.2.0 Changelog

NEW - Crashlytics

• We now have support for Crashlytics for both android and iOS, check out the docs for more info.

BREAKING - iOS and Cocoapods

Due to changes in React Native 0.50.0, react-native link wasn't working properly with react-native-firebase on iOS (more info here). To resolve these issues we have moved the Podspec file to the ios directory.

If you are using react-native-firebase as a Pod (which is no longer our recommended approach) you will have to update the definition in your Podfile to:

pod 'RNFirebase', :path => '../../ios/RNFirebase.podspec'

NEW - iOS use_frameworks! support

In the past there have been issues with using react-native-firebase when use_frameworks! is set in your Podfile. Going forward, this is now supported but only if have linked using react-native link and not if you are specifying react-native-firebase in your Podfile.

Defining react-native-firebase in your Podfile is no longer our recommended approach, so we suggest you remove references to it from your Podfile and run react-native link react-native-firebase instead.

NOTE: We still recommend installing the underlying Firebase SDKs using Cocoapods as specified in our installation instructions
