Firebase Environments

Last updated: October 21st, 2019.

At the time of writing this gist (January 4th, 2017), I was unable to find true sandboxing to separate development and production environments for a Firebase project. The closest we can get is to create two separate Firebase projects -- one for development and one for production.

Pros

Complete separation and isolation of all Firebase features.
Freedom to experiment without risking the corruption of production data.

Cons

Bridging Native & React for iOS & Android

js -> native

native -> js

Copying data from Firebase Realtime Database to a Google Sheet in real time via Cloud Functions

If you're trying to do this, you came to the right place!

Setup

React - Functional error boundaries

Thanks to React hooks you have now happily turned all your classes into functional components.

Wait, all your components? Not quite. There is one thing that can still only be implemented using classes: Error boundaries.

There is just no functional equivalent for componentDidCatch and deriveStateFromError yet.

	# The trick is to link the DeviceSupport folder from the beta to the stable version.
	# sudo needed if you run the Mac App Store version. Always download the dmg instead... you'll thank me later :)

	# Support iOS 15 devices (Xcode 13.0) with Xcode 12.5:
	sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/15.0 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport

	# Then restart Xcode and reconnect your devices. You will need to do that for every beta of future iOS versions

	# (A similar approach works for older versions too, just change the version number after DeviceSupport)

	post_install do \|installer\|
	installer.pods_project.targets.each do \|target\|
	target.build_configurations.each do \|configuration\|
	configuration.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = "2.3"
	end
	end
	end
