rn-firebase-config is a React Native module designed to extract Firebase configuration details from native files (google-services.json for Android and GoogleService-Info.plist for iOS) to be used in JavaScript code. How it Works
Behind the scenes, mayo-firebase-config employs native modules in both Android and iOS:
-
Android: Reads the google-services.json file from the assets folder, extracts the required Firebase configuration details, and returns them to the React Native JavaScript layer.
-
iOS: Reads the GoogleService-Info.plist file, extracts the required Firebase configuration details, and returns them to the React Native JavaScript layer.
Ensure that you have the google-services.json file in the assets folder for Android and the GoogleService-Info.plist in the main bundle for iOS.
Use the extractFirebaseConfig function in your React Native code as follows:
import { extractFirebaseConfig } from 'mayo-firebase-config';
const firebaseConfig = await extractFirebaseConfig();
console.log(firebaseConfig);
This function logs the extraction process and returns the extracted configuration. If the extraction is successful, you'll get an object with Firebase details; otherwise, a warning log indicates any issues. Points to Note
-
The module handles errors gracefully and will provide clear logs in case of extraction failures.
-
For security reasons, be cautious about logging the full Firebase config in a production environment as it may expose sensitive information.
React Native
For the module to work, you need to ensure that the native modules are correctly linked in your React Native project. Follow the standard React Native linking procedures for native modules if not using auto-linking. Contributing
