smf_firebase_core 0.4.1

The SMF module of Firebase for the Flutter app that SMF generates. It initializes firebase_core at start-up with the options that the FlutterFire CLI writes.

example/README.md

Generate a Flutter app with Firebase

firebase_core is the module of the SMF CLI that sets up Firebase with firebase_core. Choose it with -m in a terminal:

dart pub global activate smf_flutter_cli
smf create my_app -m firebase_core

Before it generates anything, smf create checks the machine for the Firebase CLI, a Firebase login and the FlutterFire CLI, and offers to set up what is missing. After generation, it offers to run flutterfire configure with the ids of the app, and the FlutterFire CLI asks for the Firebase project.

The module adds firebase_core to the pubspec.yaml of the app, lib/firebase_options.dart, and the start of Firebase in lib/bootstrap.dart:

Future<void> bootstrap() async {
  await Firebase.initializeApp(options: DefaultFirebaseOptions.currentPlatform);
}

Until flutterfire configure runs, lib/firebase_options.dart is a placeholder: the app compiles but stops at start-up. A run that cannot ask or skips external setup, such as smf create my_app -m firebase_core --no-input --skip-external-setup in CI, leaves the command for later and prints it once the app is created:

One step is left for later. Run it in the app:
  Configuring Firebase with flutterfire (the run skips external setup):
    dart pub global run flutterfire_cli:flutterfire configure --platforms=android,ios --overwrite-firebase-options --ios-bundle-id=com.example.my-app --android-package-name=com.example.my_app

The other Firebase modules depend on this module, so it comes with them.

The documentation has more on the firebase_core module and on Firebase in SMF.
