firebase_core_desktop 0.2.0

Desktop implementation of firebase_core

Firebase Core for Flutter Desktop

A Flutter plugin to use the Firebase Core API on Linux and Windows, which enables connecting to multiple Firebase apps.

To learn more about Firebase, please visit the Firebase website.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to install Firebase Core for your Desktop app.

1. On the root of your project, run the following commands:

   flutter pub add firebase_core
   flutter pub add firebase_core_desktop
   

   Note: firebase_core_desktop is a platform implementation of the main firebase_core plugin, so you must install them both, if you don't already have firebase_core.

2. Import it:

   import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';
   

Usage

Initialize Default App

Unlike firebase_core for iOS, Android, macOS and Web, there's no need for platform specific config files to initialize the default Firebase App, instead, add your configurations as options to initializeApp method without a name.

const firebaseOptions = FirebaseOptions(
  appId: '...',
  apiKey: '...',
  projectId: '...',
  messagingSenderId: '...',
  authDomain: '...',
);

await Firebase.initializeApp(options: firebaseOptions);

You migh want to pass your configuration as environment variables if you're pushing to a public repository:

const firebaseOptions = FirebaseOptions(
  appId: const String.fromEnvironment('FIREBASE_APP_ID'),
  apiKey: const String.fromEnvironment('FIREBASE_API_KEY'),
  projectId: const String.fromEnvironment('FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID'),
  messagingSenderId: const String.fromEnvironment('FIREBASE_SENDER_ID'),
  authDomain: const String.fromEnvironment('FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN'),
);

Note that initialization should happen before any other usage of FlutterFire plugins.

Initialize Secondary Apps

To initialize a secondary app, provide the name to initializeApp method:

await Firebase.initializeApp(app: 'foo', options: firebaseOptions);

Check the full usage example.
