react-native-firebase on ExpoKit (SDK 33)

(Deprecated) Help: ExpoKit
1

I’m trying to install Firebase on Ejected ExpoKit project, and getting this problems:

 -- Project 'android' depends on project 'app' which depends onto host.exp.exponent:expoview@33.0.0
  -- Project 'android' depends on project 'app' which depends onto com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging@17.4.0

  -- Project 'android' depends on project 'react' which depends onto com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging@18.0.0

…

 -- Project 'app' depends onto host.exp.exponent:expoview@33.0.0
  -- Project 'app' depends on project 'react' which depends onto com.google.firebase:firebase-config@17.0.0
  -- Project 'app' depends on project 'expo' which depends onto com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics@16.0.3

Does ExpoKit still contains firebase? How can we use it in ejected app? How should we use firebase in ExpoKit apps?

And if ExpoKit uses Firebase messaging - is it possible to use messages on iOS? ( with uploaded certs)?

I’m doing some investigation

In node_modules/expokit/maven/host/exp/exponent/expoview/33.0.0 I’ve found this dependencies

    <dependency org="com.google.firebase" name="firebase-core" rev="16.0.7" conf="api-&gt;default"/>
    <dependency org="com.google.firebase" name="firebase-messaging" rev="17.4.0" conf="api-&gt;default"/>
    <dependency org="com.google.firebase" name="firebase-core" rev="16.0.7" transitive="false" conf="releaseCompileClasspath-&gt;default"/>
    <dependency org="com.google.firebase" name="firebase-analytics" rev="16.3.0" transitive="false" conf="releaseCompileClasspath-&gt;default"/>
    <dependency org="com.google.firebase" name="firebase-analytics-impl" rev="16.3.0" transitive="false" conf="releaseCompileClasspath-&gt;default"/>

I’ve found workaround - setting firebase versions in gradle exact like ExpoKit uses
Here is a GitHub repo with result

i have this question a few months ago (Expo 32.0 at that time), and still didn’t found any solution.
this solution is works for you?

5

Yes, now I’m on ExpoKit with SDK33.

6

woooow great i’ll try your solution.
oh… are you using Firebase E-commerce tracking?

7

@moxorama, did you try to update Expokit to latest SDK 34?

8

@hotaru.edogawa, how does the solution work for you?

No, my company later used onesignal. Fortunately it’s more easy to implement just using their guide

yesterday i implement RN Firebase to using Analytics, and it works.
i follow tutorial from @moxorama in here :
https://github.com/moxorama/expokit-firebase/commit/b251aa02915f145ffeb80348ad42d2940421e56b

i used Expokit SDK 34 and currently im just using Analytics from FIrebase.
But the differences is only RN-Firebase version, im using 5.5.4
I read in some post that 5.5.5 had a problem with SDK 33, so the latest version which works is 5.5.4.

@moxorama: is there any problem if we using React Native link??
Because i linked manually as like you suggest
