yii2-firebase

This Yii2 component wraps kreait/firebase-php and allow to easy connect to the Firebase realtime database

Installation

Preferred way to install is through Composer:

php composer.phar require grptx/yii2-firebase:~0.3.1

Or, you may add

"grptx/yii2-firebase": "~0.3.1"

to the require section of your composer.json file and execute php composer.phar update.

Configuration

...
'components' => [
    'firebase' => [
        'class'=>'grptx\Firebase\Firebase',
        'credential_file'=>'service_account.json', // (see https://firebase.google.com/docs/admin/setup#add_firebase_to_your_app)
        'database_uri'=>'https://my-project.firebaseio.com', // (optional)
    ]
...
]

Optional

to use the autocomplete function of IDE (i.e. Phpstorm) you can optionally replace in the web/index.php the inclusion of Yii.php file and the Application instance:

replace:

require(__DIR__ . '/../../vendor/yiisoft/yii2/Yii.php');
//and 
(new yii\web\Application($config))->run();

with:

require (__DIR__.'/../../vendor/grptx/yii2-firebase/src/yii2/Yii.php');
//and
(new \grptx\Firebase\web\Application($config))->run();

now when you need you can use grptx\Firebase\yii2\Yii instead of Yii to use autocomplete of your IDE

$database = Yii::$app->firebase->getDatabase();
