Hi,
I am setting up my first project and wanting to use expo Managed Workflow / React Native linked to firebase.
I have been using the guide seen here:
But it directs you to continue the set up here:
However it seems counterintuitive to the managed workflow because the set up requires you to alter code in the android files, which you can’t reach without ejecting as I understand it.
What am I missing - is this integration possible?
Hey @atothek2880,
That library is only referenced under the Bare workflow guide Using the native Firebase SDK - Expo Documentation not the Managed one.
Cheers,
Adam
Under the Managed Workflow, I’ve followed the steps, I feel like it’s missing something? Do I need to install expo install firebase
? I thought that was just referencing the JS SDK.
In Managed Workflow you can use JS Firebase only. If you ever ejected to bare, there’s a hack which automatically selects between react-native-firebase
and JS SDK depending on whether you are running your app in Expo Client or building it yourself.
