Instance of firebase.auth.Auth must be passed as an argument

[gabriel-imascono]

Hello, I'm trying to implement this plugin in a project but I'm facing an error I'm not able to fix. I've followed all the steps detailed in this repo (twice) and when I try to call the cfaSignIn method this shows in logcat:

2020-08-19 14:46:39.077 22933-23065/com.imascono.latorreoutlet E/Capacitor: JavaScript Error: {"type":"js.error","error":{"message":"Uncaught Error: Either an instance of firebase.auth.Auth must be passed as an argument to the firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider constructor, or the default firebase App instance must be initialized via firebase.initializeApp().","url":"http://localhost/static/js/2.ed6af05b.chunk.js","line":2,"col":1000021,"errorObject":"{\"code\":\"auth/argument-error\",\"message\":\"Either an instance of firebase.auth.Auth must be passed as an argument to the firebase.auth.PhoneAuthProvider constructor, or the default firebase App instance must be initialized via firebase.initializeApp().\"}"}}

I'm not sure why it is trying to use the PhoneAuthProvider when I'm only using Google:

cfaSignIn("google.com").subscribe((user: User) =>
  console.log(user.displayName)
);

This is my capacitor.config.json:

"CapacitorFirebaseAuth": {
  "providers": ["google.com"],
  "languageCode": "en",
  "nativeAuth": false,
  "permissions": {
    "google": ["profile"]
  }
}

Hi Grabiel,

Despite that you are seen this at logcat, maybe this is a Web Typer problem.

Did you initialize your firebase application? Please review the firebase documentation here

Hope this help you, looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards, Bernardo Baumblatt

@gabriel-imascono I had the same issue until I implemented email & password sign in method using AngularFire. I suppose is because AngularFire needs Firebase initialization through AngularFireModule.initializeApp(firebaseConfig)
