Lets create a Flutter app and get it all setup with Firebase.
Create your Flutter App
Create your app and open it in your IDE of choice.
flutter create my_app
Install Dependencies
Below are the dependneices for Firebase in Flutter, assuming you're using Firestore and Google Signin.
dependencies:
flutter:
sdk: flutter
firebase_core: ^0.4.0
firebase_analytics: ^1.0.4
cloud_firestore: ^0.8.2+3
firebase_auth: ^0.6.6
google_sign_in: ^3.2.4
Setup Firebase
Android Setup
Generate your SHA Certificates
Make sure you have Java installed. On Ubuntu, you can install it by running sudo apt-get install default-jdk
.
Open up your terminal at the Flutter project root, and run cd android
to mvoe into the android directory. Then run ./gradlew signingReport
to generate the SHA1 and SHA256 keys. Copy and paste them from the Varient: debug
section
Make sure you know your application ID, this can be found in the android/app/build.gradle
file under your defaultConfig
. Grab that for the next step.
Create your Firebase Project
Go to the Firebase console and create your new project. Register your app by clicking Add Firebase to your Android app. Enter your project ID, package name,. and the SHA-1 Certificate from the last step. Download the google-services.json
file to the android/app
directory.
Now click through the rest of the setup, and go into your project settings. In the general tab, you'll see a section called "Your apps". Click the "Add fingerprint" section and copy and paste the SHA256 key from the last step, then redownload the config file.
Update the build.gradle files
Lets register the Google Services in the Gradle build files for Android.
Lets start with the one in android/build.gradle
buildscript {
repositories {
// Check that you have the following line (if not, add it):
google() // Google's Maven repository
}
dependencies {
...
// Add this line
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.2'
}
}
allprojects {
...
repositories {
// Check that you have the following line (if not, add it):
google() // Google's Maven repository
...
}
}
And then the android/app/build.gradle
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
dependencies {
// add the Firebase SDK for Google Analytics
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics:17.2.0'
// add SDKs for any other desired Firebase products
// https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup#available-libraries
}
...
// Add to the bottom of the file
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
That's it! Try running it with an Android emulator or device to verify everything worked.
iOS Setup
The iOS setup is less tedious and can be completed in one step.
Register and Download the GoogleService-Info.plist
Click add your app to iOS then download the GoogleService-Info.plist
file into the ios/Runner/Runner
directory from XCode. Make sure that your application ID matches in registration and in XCode.
