How to manage firebase ( google-service.json and google-service-info.plist ) for android & ios for load configuration as per there env file parameter

[Calin Tamas]

Hi, rahul

on Android you can have both config files stored somewhere in your app source

config/firebase/production/google-services.json
config/firebase/staging/google-services.json

And write a bash script that copies these files in the android folder at build time (run the script with fastlane):

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ "$IS_PRODUCTION" == "true" ];
then
  echo "Setting Firebase production environment"
  yes | cp -rf "../js/config/firebase/production/google-services.json" "../android/app"
else
  echo "Setting Firebase staging environment"
  yes | cp -rf "../js/config/firebase/staging/google-services.json" "../android/app"
fi

and on iOS, add both files to the Xcode project

GoogleService-Info-production.plist
GoogleService-Info-staging.plist

In AppDelegate.m, select the correct file for your env

NSString *isProduction = [ReactNativeConfig envFor:@"IS_PRODUCTION"];
NSString *firebaseConfig = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"GoogleService-Info-staging" ofType:@"plist"];
  if ([isProduction isEqualToString:@"true"]) {
    firebaseConfig = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"GoogleService-Info-production" ofType:@"plist"];
  }
