Welcome all contributors

Before starting to contribute in your local repository you should have Firebase configured in the project

 Let's start with the configuration 

Check for these files in your cloned/updated repository

  • firebase.json
  • firebase_options.dart
  • google-services.json

If you find these files delete them from your side Ohh don't worry we'll going to set up all these.

          Now let's check do you have Firebase installed in your system!

Step 1:  Install firebase tools

 open your terminal and type firebase --version if it shows the version it means you have firebase CLI installed. Otherwise, you have to install the Firebase first to install the Firebase CLI run the command npm install -g firebase-tool I install the firebase tools globally.

Now you have installed the Firebase and CLI time to log into the Firebase using CLI run firbase login it will open the an window login to your account.

Step 2:  Install flutterfire cli

  1. Log into Firebase using your Google account by running the following command:
firebase login

   2. Install the FlutterFire CLI by running the following command from any directory:

   dart pub global activate flutterfire_cli

   Step 3: Configure your apps to use Firebase

Use the FlutterFire CLI to configure your Flutter apps to connect to Firebase.

From your Flutter project directory, run the following command to start the app configuration workflow:

flutterfire configure

note: if you are in Windows it will only work in the CMD terminal due to PowerShell privacy concerns

when running Flutterfire configure its checks for all projects in your repo if there is no firebase.json file then it will create a project for you choose the project name and platform and you are ready to go. for more details  go here

After your contribution

Always follow these three things before pulling the main.

To stash your Firebase configuration
