API

Documentation coming soon. For now you can browse the TypeScript source files in the scripts/src directory to get an idea of how to do things. I've tried to keep the API as close to the JavaScript SDK as possible.

To get you started, download the google-services.json file from the Firebase console and put it in the root of your Cordova app. After that, you're ready to start using the plugin:

// Enable persistence to disk for the database (Yay! Offline support!)
firebase.database().setPersistenceEnabled(true);

// Write to the database
firebase.database()
    .ref("posts")
    .push({from: "Josep", text: "Hey there"})
    .then(() => console.log("Post published!"));

// Read from the database
firebase.database().ref("posts").on("value", snapshot => {
    console.log(`There are ${snapshot.numChildren()} posts`);
});

firebase.database().ref("posts").on("child_added", snapshot => {
    let value = snapshot.val();
    console.log(`Post with key ${snapshot.key} from ${value.from} says: ${value.text}`);
});

firebase.database()
    .ref("posts")
    .orderByChild("from")
    .equalTo("Josep")
    .limitToLast(1)
    .once("child_added", snapshot => {
        console.log("Last post from Josep:", snapshot.val());
    });

// Get notified when a user signs in or out
firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(user => {
    if (user === null) {
        console.log("The user has signed out");
    } else {
        console.log(`User with uid ${user.uid} and name ${user.displayName} has signed in`);
    }
});

// Sign in with email and password
firebase.auth()
    .signInWithEmailAndPassword(myEmail, myPassword)
    .then(user => console.log(`User ${user.uid} signed in correctly`))
    .catch(error => console.error("Oops, signing in failed:", error));

// Receive FCM notifications
firebase.messaging().onNotificationOpen(notification => {
    console.log("Hey! New notification:", notification)
});
