. To add it to your node project, use:
npm i -S react-firebase-subscribable
# with yarn
yarn add react-firebase-subscribable
A UMD build is also available for browsers via unpkg

Note: you will need load the dependencies before this tag to use this library
Usage
Context API
react-firebase-subscribable
exports Provider
components and connect
functions for using Auth/Firestore state via the context API. Auth state is separated from database subscriptions so the module exports separate Provider/connect functions for each:
Auth
Firebase Auth Provider
Props:
| Name | Type | Required | | ------------------ |:----------------------:| --------:| | firebaseAuth | Firebase Auth Instance | true | | onAuthStateChanged | Function | false |
onAuthStateChanged
can be provided to inform external stores of changes to auth state without nesting them inside of Firebase Auth Provider
, such as if you want to nest it in an existing redux store and dispatch actions to update the store on auth state change, so you can simply use one connect
if you are already using redux.
Usage:
// in root component
import React from 'react'
import { FirebaseAuthProvider } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
import App from 'components/App'
import firebase from 'firebase'
const AuthConnectedRoot = () => (
<FirebaseAuthProvider firebaseAuth={firebase.auth()}>
<App />
</FirebaseAuthProvider>
)
export default AuthConnectedRoot
/**
* with a redux store
* Note: this component must be rendered as a child to Redux's
* Provider component for this example to work.
**/
import React from 'react'
import { connect } from 'react-redux'
import { FirebaseAuthProvider } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
import App from 'components/App'
import { onAuthStateChanged } from '../actions/auth'
import firebase from 'firebase'
const AuthConnectedRoot = ({ onAuthStateChanged }) => (
<FirebaseAuthProvider
firebaseAuth={firebase.auth()}
onAuthStateChanged={onAuthStateChanged}
>
<App />
</FirebaseAuthProvider>
)
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => ({
onAuthStateChanged,
})
export default connect(
null,
mapDispatchToProps,
)(AuthConnectedRoot)
connectAuth
A function that accepts a function mapAuthStateToProps
and returns a function that accepts a component.
mapAuthStateToProps
mapAuthStateToProps
should accept the current user and return a props
object to be applied to the wrapped component:
// in consumer components
import React from 'react'
import { connectAuth } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
const CurrentUser = ({ user }) => (
<div>
{user ? user.uid : 'Not signed in'}
</div>
)
const mapAuthStateToProps = user => ({
user,
})
export default connectAuth(mapAuthStateToProps)(CurrentUser)
Firestore
Firestore Provider
Props:
| Name | Type | Required | | ----------- |:-------------------------------:| --------:| | initialRefs | object (see below.) | false |
type FirestoreProviderProps = {
initialRefs: object<string, firestore.DocumentReference | firestore.CollectionReference | firestore.QueryReference>,
}
// in root component
import React from 'react'
import { FirestoreProvider } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
import App from 'components/App'
import firebase from 'firebase'
const initialRefs = {
allUsers: firebase.firestore().collection('all-users'),
}
const FirestoreConnectedRoot = () => (
<FirestoreProvider initialRefs={initial}>
<App />
</FirestoreProvider>
)
export default FirestoreConnectedRoot
connectFirestore
A function that accepts a function mapSnapshotsToProps
and a list of injectedRefs
and returns a function that accepts a component.
mapSnapshotsToProps
mapSnapshotsToProps
will receive the current store
's corresponding snapshots as an argument:
import React from 'react'
import { connectFirestore } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
const CurrentUserProfile = ({ userProfile }) => (
<div>
{userProfile
? <div>Welcome back, {userProfile.name}!</div>
: <div>Sign in to view profile</div>
}
</div>
)
const mapSnapshotsToProps = ({ userProfile: { value, error } }) => ({
userProfile: !error && value ? value.data() : null,
profileError: error ? value : null,
})
export default connectFirestore(mapSnapshotsToProps)(CurrentUserProfile)
injectedRefs
injectedRefs
can be passed into any firestore-connected component, and should have the form:
{
[key: string]: firestore.Reference |
(props) => firestore.Reference | null,
}
If the provided ref
is a function it will be called with the component's props
import React from 'react'
import { connectFirestore } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
const CurrentUserProfile = ({ userProfile }) => (
<div>
{userProfile
? <div>Welcome back, {userProfile.name}!</div>
: <div>Sign in to view profile</div>
}
</div>
)
// userProfile will be injected when this component connects
/**
* mapSnapshotsToProps can be null if you do not want the
* component to receive snapshot updates, but still want to inject
* refs.
**/
const mapSnapshotsToProps = ({
userProfile: { value: profileValue, error: profileError },
allProfiles: { value: allProfiles, error: allProfilesError },
}) => ({
userProfile: !profileError && profileValue ? profileValue.data() : null,
otherProfiles: !allProfilesError && allProfiles.docs,
})
// ref can be a function, will be called with (props) as an arg
const injectedRefs = {
userProfile: ({ user }) => user
? firebase.firestore().collection('user-profiles').doc(user.uid)
: null,
allProfiles: firebase.firestore().collection('user-profiles'),
}
// inject userProfileRef using key 'userProfile'
const withFirestore = connectFirestore(
mapSnapshotsToProps,
injectedRefs,
)
export default withFirestore(CurrentUserProfile)
useInjected
The useInjected
hook can be used to manually connect a component to the Firestore Provider, and has the same API as connectFirestore
:
import React from 'react'
import { useInjected } from 'react-firebase-subscribable'
const mapSnapshots = ({ userProfile: { value, error } }) => ({
userProfile: !error && value ? value.data() : null,
profileError: error ? value : null,
})
const CurrentUserProfile = ({ user }) => {
const { userProfile } = useInjected(mapSnapshots, {
userProfile: ({ user }) => user
? firebase.firestore().collection('user-profiles').doc(user.uid)
: null,
allProfiles: firebase.firestore().collection('user-profiles'),
})
return (
<div>
{userProfile
? <div>Welcome back, {userProfile.name}!</div>
: <div>Sign in to view profile</div>
}
</div>
)
export default CurrentUserProfile
