react-native-firebase support

[izakfilmalter]

Love the idea of this library. I know that it's depending on firebase js v9, is there a way we can shim in support for react-native-firebase?

You will run into all kinds of problems if you try to use this library with React Native. I would avoid.

Not yet, we do have plans to get RNFB to support React Native web via the JS-SDK, however that is a massive job :D

I understand this library is not suited for React Native, but from your experience is there any reason not to use similar React Query + Firestore principles in the React Native environment?

I was thinking of trying out this library for a production app. I came upon this issue. Are there any particular reasons why this library is not suited for React Native? Just curious.

[Ehesp]

If you want to use the Firebase JS SDK with this library, I think it should work - although untested. If you want to use React Native Firebase, then that's not supported.

I am successfully using in production this library with

• React Native
• Expo

I am just using the real time database https://react-query-firebase.invertase.dev/database
