@robingenz Do you already have a timeline in your mind for this? Just curious whether its worth it to use the Firebase JS SDK for now and wether we could easily switch then later.

Great work you're doing!

@alpfactory-alex Not yet. Migrating from the Firebase JS SDK to the plugin should be easy, as I'm trying to adopt the interfaces.

This could be a great plugin :) 💯(actually all of them, Database, Storage and FireStore at least)

Thank you for the awesome work, the Auth plugin works flawlesly.

Would anyone be interested in testing a first development version of this plugin and giving some feedback afterwards?

Yes, but what we need most is background upload (files that are stored in the file system) to Storage and of course the standard Storage functionality.

That's what's planned next. Feel free to subscribe to #63.

Here is the first dev version:

npm i @capacitor-firebase/[email protected]

Docs: https://capawesome.io/plugins/firebase/cloud-firestore/

I appreciate any feedback. There are a few limitations currently, see:

I just did the first tests and there seems to be big differences in performance. The Firebase Swift SDK is on average 4x faster when retrieving documents (tested on iOS 17.0.1). In my case I retrieve 20 documents. This takes an average of 95ms with the Firebase Swift SDK and an average of 455ms with the Firebase JS SDK.

We'd be very interested in testing this at https://reflect.app

Super excited! I did a quick look at it and it seems that FieldValue is not yet implemented and hasn't been ticketed, so I created an issue for it.

@maccman That would be great! Let me know if you need anything or if you are missing features.

@ocavue Thanks, i will take a look. 👍
