✨ v6.0.0 ✨ #2025

Salakar · 2019-04-04T01:59:52Z

Hey everybody 💛

Super excited to announce that we're just over halfway through our v5 -> v6 migration + overhaul, and; there are so many great things there already for you to try out. We say this every time but really; this is our 'largest release yet' x💯

So please 🙏 check out the changelog and if all the Firebase services that you use are already listed there then you are good to migrate to the new individual npm packages. They are only released as patch versions for now until all packages are ready - at which point they'll be published as v6.0.0 - I'd recommend locking your package versions until this time.

Instructions can be found on the changelog. Please bare with us well we work towards v6, you have not been forgotten.

I will update this issue with currently being worked on modules and modules next in line, so subscribe to be notified of that and other announcements.

New Website

We also have a new documentation hub/website that we're hoping to have open to early public feedback in a couple of weeks. We'll update this comment as & when it becomes available.

🎉 EDIT: 🎉 It's up - see the comment below. #2025 (comment)

Temporary Discord Server

We have a Discord Server up temporarily to discuss v6.0.0 and post announcements to without the noise of the main Discord server.

If you'd like to join and discuss it please do so: https://discord.gg/rHjpxts

Salakar · 2019-04-26T15:04:19Z

Hey everyone 👋

I think we're in a comfortable place to open up the new site.

URL: https://invertase.io/oss/react-native-firebase

There's still on-going work to improve it and a lot of content missing (or needs re-working); however, we're making it public so that we can get your feedback and also open it up to anyone wanting to submit content (PRs 💯)

Submitting Feedback

If you have any feedback please either submit it here, on the RNFB v6 discord or using the Send Feedback button that appears on most pages:

The more detail you provide the better.

Contributing

If you'd like to contribute to the documentation here's a quick overview of how it works.

General Documentation: All pages have an Edit page button at the top that will quickly take you to the relevant markdown file that generates the content of the page - feel free to fork the repo and edit these and send up a PR.
Reference documentation: All Reference documentation is generated from the index.d.ts type definition file for each module e.g. packages/analytics/index.d.ts, if you'd like to add examples, parameter descriptions, method descriptions for anything that is lacking them, please also send a PR that adds code comments to the index.d.ts files (many of these are missing annotations and need going through).

If you have any questions or queries on how to contribute please get in touch, we'd be happy to help or mentor if required.

Cloud Storage is now up, published in alpha10.

[View the Cloud Storage changelog]

Salakar · 2019-09-19T13:11:43Z

@mikehardy With the important caveat that I think Crashlytics didn't get rid of the UIWebView references receiving "we'll reject your app soon" warnings from the Apple Store, with the community-best-guess indicating they will start rejecting apps for real when iOS 13 is released, which I think is...today https://firebase.google.com/support/releases#september_10_2019

👏 yes definitely a big caveat.

I've updated the docs to show all the overridable settings now; https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/blob/docs/pages/guides/overriding-native-sdk-versions.md (will be on the site shortly)

kaioduarte · 2019-09-20T22:11:19Z

I just received this warning while using Cloud Storage:

Unknown option dependency.platforms.android.buildPatch with value ""implementation project(':@react-native-firebase_storage')"" was found

 "dependencies": {
    "@react-native-firebase/app": "^6.0.0-alpha.25",
    "@react-native-firebase/storage": "^6.0.0-alpha.25",
    "react": "16.9.0",
    "react-native": "0.61.0-rc.3"
  }

Any thoughts? Maybe related to #2194.

pistou · 2019-09-20T22:38:20Z

@kaioduarte According to this answer, I believe ^6.0.0-alpha.25 is deprecated and you should use ^0.5.2 which is the latest version at the moment.

please change all your @react-native-firebase/* packages to version ^0.4.0 - we moved the v6 alphas to <1.0.0 patch & minor releases so we could partially gate any breaking changes between the alpha behind versions (wasn't so flexible when using tags)

kevinvugts · 2019-09-23T06:26:22Z

@kevinvugts I just deployed v0.5.2 to NPM of the pre-release packages; which now allow you to override the Fabric & Crashlytics versions we use internally, update your packages and add this to the top of your Podfile
$FabricSDKVersion = '1.6.0'
$CrashlyticsSDKVersion = '3.1.0'
Documentation will be added here alongside the other available overrides.

Note that using early versions of the SDKs means we've not tested they function correctly, so it's at your own risk but should generally be ok.

I am receiving the following error:

[!] No podspec found for `RNFBAnalytics` in `../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/analytics/ios

But the path seems to be correct tho. I also tried to remove node_modules and reinstall package.json. But no result.

Ehesp · 2019-09-23T07:11:57Z

@kevinvugts can you try ensuring the CLI is up to date?

kevinvugts · 2019-09-23T09:39:17Z

CLI

My Expo CLI?

update

I removed the /ios extension on the end and now it is coming a bit further. Now the following error appears:

To update use: `sudo gem install cocoapods --pre`
[!] This is a test version we'd love you to try.

Ehesp · 2019-09-23T09:43:23Z

Try running pod install --repo-update

kevinvugts · 2019-09-23T09:43:35Z

Try running pod install --repo-update

I used that script.

Ehesp · 2019-09-23T09:48:59Z

Please can we see your Podfile, looks like auto-linking isn't working for some reason... Did you manually add the pods?

kevinvugts · 2019-09-23T09:51:07Z

I add them manually yes. Here is the pod file:

Update

When I removed the fixed versions, it installed the podfile succesfully. huh?!

@Ehesp

Right now I am experiencing the following issue:

LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed for the application /Applications/Atom.app with error -10810.

This looks like an error with Atom IDE, maybe Atom#3093?

radik · 2019-09-23T19:56:10Z

Is there any progress on Notifications package?
Is there any way how I can help?

technoplato · 2019-09-23T19:57:48Z

@radik See: #2566

TLDR Not really a way to help, but progress is being made.

jwaldrip · 2019-09-24T19:48:25Z

How will this be supported with web. The previous version was the same API as the official package from google. How will that work in 6.0.0?

Ehesp · 2019-09-24T19:58:22Z

@jwaldrip What do you mean by "supported with web"?

v6 follows the web SDK too where applicable, and for newer modules such as ML Kit we have developed the API into JavaScript based on the native platforms.

Salakar · 2019-09-26T12:14:52Z

Hey all, v6.0.0 is here 🎉 see: https://invertase.io/blog/react-native-firebase-v6

pistou · 2019-09-26T12:40:16Z

@Salakar Congrats on the launch (and the shootout at Firebase Summit 💯 ) 🎉

r0b0t3d · 2019-09-27T09:53:49Z

Hi, thanks for your hard work to make v6 available.
I'm working with typescript and I got problem with auto complete

import database from '@react-native-firebase/database';

const usersRef = database().ref('users');

vscode can not determine the type of usersRef.

mikehardy · 2019-09-27T13:22:16Z

@r0b0t3d this does sound like a problem - can you open a fresh issue with the appropriate version details, explaining the same? It will likely not get attention on this one

r0b0t3d · 2019-09-27T14:19:13Z

@mikehardy Thanks. Issue created #2648

kevinvugts · 2019-09-30T13:24:59Z

@Salakar

I integrated a few of the v 6.0.0 RNFirebase libraries. (perf, app, analytics and crashlytics)

My pod file looks as following:

  pod 'RNFBAnalytics', :path => '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/analytics'
  pod 'RNFBApp', :path => '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/app'
  pod 'RNFBCrashlytics', :path => '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/crashlytics

However crashlytics does not seem to connect to firebase. I don't receive anything in my console. I have imported crashlytics and performance in my main entry point App.js like so:

import perf from '@react-native-firebase/perf';
perf().setPerformanceCollectionEnabled(true);
crashlytics().setCrashlyticsCollectionEnabled(true);

What am I doing wrong? All libraries work except for crashlytics.

maxKimoby · 2019-10-01T18:56:51Z

Hello guys, great work. Need notifications package though... why not release all at once... :)

pistou · 2019-10-01T19:00:02Z

@maxKimoby According to the v6 annoucement

We're almost complete migrating the notifications package, please bear with us. As each module is now its own npm package we did not want to hold up the rest of the React Native Firebase modules any longer than necessary because of the notifications package, we're hoping to publish the notifications package in the next 2-3 weeks, stay tuned!

mikehardy · 2019-10-01T20:10:24Z

I know right? I totally want my free stuff faster. And no excuses, sleep is for weenies, but @maxKimoby no PRs in this repo? 🤔 - I'm not being mean though I swear, just pointing out the reality. It's a mountain of work and can always use more contributors.

More useful than that prattle though - I made a tracking issue for that last package here for news #2566

maxKimoby · 2019-10-01T20:41:41Z

Everyone in this repo worked really hard, we love it, we use it, we respect the work and will wait, as we all do for any open source project. I don't think I have the knowledge or experience to contribute to this repo right now, might have in the future! Thank you for your answer.

At first glance, this version incredibly clearer and simpler to install and use. Great work and sorry @mikehardy if I my message seemed passive-aggressive, was not the case. I had trouble googling the needed information which you provided me.

arashkevich25 · 2019-10-03T09:48:41Z

Currently i have error:
`CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "Crashlytics":
In Podfile:
Crashlytics (~> 3.13.2)

RNFBCrashlytics (from '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/crashlytics)' was resolved to 6.0.0, which depends on
  Crashlytics (~> 3.12.0)

Specs satisfying the 'Crashlytics (~~> 3.13.2), Crashlytics (~~> 3.12.0)' dependency were found, but they required a higher minimum deployment target.
`

Who know what is wrong ?
