Android support about react-native-firestack

[auser]

+1 good point

I've read through much of the source and am using it with this project. This library is really to serve as a shim to cover the stuff their JS library doesn't cover/support. The parts that DO work in the JS library are simple pass-throughs to their JS library.

I am about to start a project. I will need Android support. Is it possible we get Android in 1-2 months?

[auser]

@cihancil It's possible. I'm currently working on documentation for this module, so when I'm done with the post, I'm hoping to get to Android support, unless the community wants to jump in and help.

This is definitely a HIGH priority.

Update

We have a lot of Android coverage already. v2.2.1 has been updated with a lot of Android support already. Aiming to have full coverage soon.

[auser]

We have parity in coverage now.

Social auth have yet to be implemented (mostly due to time)

[cihancil]

Firebase team announced that their JavaScript SDK now works with React Native. Might be better to focusing the parts that they don't support. For example their storage service.

I made react-native-firebase-auth-android which only support firebase auth. But you want to use firebase database, you can use firebase js version. And you want to add social Login with firebase, read this post.How to add Firebase auth with react-native

Hi checking in since I am starting a new project that needs Android support.
How it is coming along?
Cheers

[auser]

@praneybehl We're just getting start it on it. @g6ling seems to have a pretty good handle on it in his library. @g6ling Interested in collaborating and adding Android support together?

[praneybehl]

Thanks for the info. I would love to help but my knowledge with Java is close to none. I work with javascript, so if there is anything I can help with, I would love to.

Cheers!

@auser yes. I'm interested in this library. I want to collaborate this project(Android version) with your team. What can i do for this project?

[auser]

@g6ling Awesome. I know you've done some initial work with your repo on adding auth. The JS interface is pretty intentionally thin right now, so perhaps we can integrate some of your Android work to cover the auth API?

[auser]

Holla all.

Okay, I pushed a very basic, incomplete Android version (to the feature/android branch) based almost entirely on @g6ling's work. Although it's not complete, it's a start.

If anyone wants to jump in to help provide more comprehensive API coverage, feel free. I'll be working on some more coverage as well.

[auser]

One more update: I added some notes to the android features with the rest of the JS api. Feel free to fill in the blanks. Should just be pretty easy to look in the Firebase docs and copy + paste the implementation.

For instance: https://github.com/fullstackreact/react-native-firestack/blob/feature/android/android/src/main/java/io/fullstack/firestack/FirestackModule.java#L183

[auser]

Android support is built-in and starting to be baked in. If you're interested in contributing, it's broken out into modules now and should be very straightforward.

[praneybehl]

Great work, Is there a list of what is currently available for Android?

[auser]

Thanks.

My tests show that auth is working on android. I confirmed file uploading works as well. The database has partial support (have a few remaining pieces of code to complete, but the logs show exactly what).

Off the top of my head, the rest still needs some work, but I can look deeper when I get to a keyboard.

Update

FirestackAuth.java (includes everything except the following methods)

• reauthenticateWithCredentialForProvider()
• provider logins (still haven't started on these yet

FirestackDatabase.java -- complete
FirestackStorage.java - complete
FirestackAnalytics.java - complete

[auser]

Okay, I've updated quite a bit of the Android API. Storage, Analytics are complete.

Auth still needs some providers work (2 methods)
Database needs to add off() and removeListeners()

Otherwise everything else should be covered.

[praneybehl]

@auser this is awesome, I am hoping these will be ready soon. So if someone was to start dev, what would you say wait or get started as it's coming real soon.

Really appreciate your work here 👍 💯

Cheers

[auser]

@praneybehl Hey, thanks for the comment. Yeah, definitely get started. I aim to help support your app with features. Plus, it can help discover any bugs/features as you're building. Feel free to join the gittr room if you want to discuss more.

Cheers!

[praneybehl]

@auser Thanks mate, I will now. Is there a link to the Gittr room?

[auser]

Here ya go: gitter

I'll update the README if it's not there already.

[praneybehl]

Thanks mate just joined
