Confused with setting up

[Tamer7]

Hey!

Would you be able to make a video on how to set up the project, or maybe go more in detail about setting it up? Because im confused about how to connect the APIs with firebase and with the app its a bit overwhelming. Love your project tho!

Hi @Tamer7 ,
Thank you, I really appreciate it.
My apologize for late reply.
If you can explain me you exact requirement where you are facing issues I would be able to help you better.
Is it just - How to connect the APIs with firebase ?

Hi,

So that's one of the issues yeah, so ill walk you through what I did.
I made a google cloud platform account and i setup the geocodingApi and retrieved it. I could not find anything related to "YOUR_ANDROID/iOS_APK_API_KEY" this on google platform but found something similar which i got an API from google cloud.

Now i got both of these API keys, and i uploaded them to the main.dart file in the app.

Now i got confused about the firebase setup and how to connect it to the google cloud platform. And where do i set up the credentials for the firebase in the project?

Hi @Tamer7 ,
Did you check this for firebase setup - https://github.com/Singh-Shivani/Food_Lab/blob/master/Updates.md

I could not find anything related to "YOUR_ANDROID/iOS_APK_API_KEY" this on google platform but found something similar which i got an API from google cloud. - This is API keys you get when you successfully enable each of these APIs, I presume this you already did.

Now you have to create a firebase project and while you create new project you should see you GCP projects (both should be with same account) if this doesn't work try creating firebase project and then connect it to GCP billing account and enable those APIs

Just don't waste your time. Basically most of Github projects are outdated and programming platforms are updated their programming platform requirements. If these projects nobody updates then mostly it's time waste for every who comes by.

Just a Note to everyone who want to "set up" outdated project. I`ll save your time - don't! :))
Like I said these projects are outdated and if you try to "set up" you will get a lot of problems issues as errors.
