Firebase setup

The Firebase API keys are not versioned, so you will need to provide these as additional arguments when running/building. Each platform requires its key to be set, e.g. the iOS app runs fine without an androidFirebaseKey but it will crash if no iosFirebaseKey is provided.

flutter run \
  --dart-define=iosFirebaseKey=$FIREBASE_KEY_IOS \
  --dart-define=androidFirebaseKey=$FIREBASE_KEY_ANDROID

You can get these keys by logging into the Firebase Web Console and downloading the google-services.json and GoogleService-Info.plist for Android and iOS respectively, and look for the API key in there. Or, you can use the FlutterFire CLI to generate a temporary firebase_options.dart which will hold these keys as well.

# Install Firebase CLI
brew install firebase-cli
# Log in to Firebase
firebase login
# Install FlutterFire CLI
dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli
# Create `firebase_options.dart`
flutterfire configure

If asked for an iOS bundle ID, it's org.rescado.ios. 👍

If iOS build fails

cd ios
pod cache clean --all
pod update

And cross your fingers.
