Firebase SDK 3

[joaogarin]

Sorry to ask so early;P but firebase SDK 3, will it be working with angularfire2 soon? Looking forward to trying it out.

I hope there will be backward compatiblity?

This library doesn't seem to work with the version 3.0 of firebase:
Error message saying Firebase isn't a Constructor, etc.

But the firebase 2.x version is still working perfectly with nG 1.X and angularfire 1.x
Should be the same for this version of angularfire and nG 2.

By the way, Google's deprecation policy is pretty friendly generally so I wouldn't be too scary about this.

Yeah I think only the initialisation now has a couple more things like the storage bucket, domain setting, private key etc while previously it was just the firebase ref url ;=)

What is a previous working version of firebase we can use with angularfire2 until things are fixed?

Any 2.x.x should work I guess, this is the latest:
https://cdn.firebase.com/js/client/2.3.2/firebase.js

But if you're starting an app right now, you may want to wait for a release that works with the 3.0 version of firebase. The JS API isn't finished at the moment, I believe.
So a stable firebase 3.0 + angularFire + angular 2.x might not be available before some time.

If you want to use AngularFire in Angular 2, check out AngularFire2. It will be upgraded to the Firebase 3.0.0 SDK in the coming days to weeks. @davideast and @jeffbcross are leading the AngularFire2 effort.

i just found this at the angularfire repository

Awesome !

I have a hackathon this weekend that I want to do something in. So, 2.3.2 for now I guess.
Also doing something with Ionic2. By the time things cascade into all the wrappers, it looks like it could be a while. :-( Looking forward to everything stabilizing reasonably.

@sathishvj I am using the newest firebase console with angularfire2 and ionic 2 without any issues. No reason you cant use it for a hackathon.

Yeah the console doesn't change anything, it's the version of the SDK that matter.

With the new console, i have this issue for each provider :/ #185
Not you ?

Can't wait to see it happen 👍 Thanks guys!

Hey everyone,

We will be updating AngularFire2 to the 3.0 SDK! It may take a bit because I'm going on a bit of leave, but we should have it done in about two weeks or so.
