  1. Swift has recently gained direct interoperability with C++.

    This would allow the current bridging layer written in Objective-C++ to be removed, which would in turn make it possible to use Firestore from Swift cross platform.

    The Browser Company have created patches for firebase-cpp-sdk to allow this:

    https://github.com/thebrowsercompany/swift-firebase

    It could also decrease the maintenance burden by removing the bridging layer code.

  2. For automatic SMS retrieval to work, SMS length has to be under 64 bytes. This means currently that for English SMS template, the app name has to be 11-14 characters. Play Console allows max 30 characters. Firebase doesn't allow customers to modify the SMS template contents themselves. Now I'm working around by utilizing some other languages, that will fit below 64 bytes with current app name.

    Two options I suggest to achieve this:
    1) Modify the English SMS template: remove unnecessary filler words and make it shorter, so that it will fit to 64bytes with max 30 char app names.

  3. Functions is behind paywall, (it is still free for some limit in Blaze plan), but IF i upgrade to Blaze, then Cloud Storage, Hosting etc starts to charge right away, even in free plan they have free limits but once switched to Blaze it starts to charge. So to get free Functions, i have to pay cloud storage and hosting and more.

    For any playground project that is not gonna hit market or earn money, how i am supposed to try/learn functions? This forces me to move away from platform

  5. It can be necessary to run a script before the build command.

    Example:

    • With angular: A script to create the environment.ts files need to be run before the ng build.
    • With Prisma: A script to generate the prisma files should be run before the build the build itself.

    Suggestion:

    As for render.com, get in the settings Build Command options and Start Command

  6. I am submitting a feature request to introduce a 'unique()' operator in Firestore's security rules, offering a streamlined method to enforce data uniqueness within collections. This operator would not only simplify validation and potentially reduce reads by leveraging Firestore's hidden index table, but also eliminate the need for a separate cloud function, similar to the 'get()' and 'exists()' operations.

    Background:

    At present, ensuring data uniqueness in Firestore often requires workarounds that are less than optimal and can impact scalability.

    Feature Proposal:

    The proposed 'unique()' operator would operate much like the 'exists()' operation, but with a focus on reading Firestore's concealed…

  7. Django is a very popular framework. It is likely the easiest one to get up and running with, also allowing reusing the code much better than other solutions. No need to say how big Python is and Django (and even Flask) will only become bigger and bigger. Firebase app hosting must support Django. Not tomorrow, now!

  8. When deploying multiple cloud functions at once via

    firebase deploy --only functions

    we frequently run into quota issues like:

    • functions: got "Quota Exceeded" error while trying to update projects/.... Waiting to retry...

    It never retries though.

    It would make it way easier if you could add an argument to the deployment command like:

    firebase deploy --only functions --chunked 50

  10. Currently Firebase supports JSON & NoSQL Datastore which is a cool thing, but what is currently a pain point is that for building more complex apps with a lot of linked data is such an hassle with NoSQL Databases.

    This is one reason people are pivoting from Firebase for anything long term, if there is a way to host relational data like a SQL instance (Postgres/MySQL) it will make firebase an Ideal solution for apps of any scale.

    I would also happy to share some of the case studies of business which are looking forward to this specific thing.

  11. The UX when reading large objects in the firestore explorer UI requires too much scrolling in small windows to find the information you are after. I'd propose to:

    Note: "window" here refers to where the container where the data of a document can be found or alternatively where all the collection can be found. So the firestore explorer contains usually, a collection window, a document window, (a sub collections window, a document window,...).

    • collapse maps by default, or collapse maps if the object is larger than the current window. When dealing with large objects it's currently annoying to find the…

  12. 1st gen cloud functions can access auth info via context.auth as described here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/database/extend-with-functions?gen=1st#accessing_user_authentication_information

    But 2nd gen cloud functions is yet to have the same function.

  13. https://firebase.google.com/codelabs/firebase-nextjs#4
    Labels and directions in the tutorial are not matching the Firebase console. Configuration steps are vague and not descriptive enough. Example " Add your Firebase configuration to your web app code" section Step 2 makes sense if no app was build, but at this point of the tutorial the app has been created "My Nexst.js app", so these instruction are not right. Step 3 i believe is wrong or inaccurately written. Are we to transpose the contents to the npm tab from the "SDK setup and configuration pane" to the proper variable state or if we are to replace…

  19. I am currently using firebase/firestore from react native. Currently

    import { firebase } from "@react-native-firebase/firestore";

    const rc = firebase.firestore().useEmulator("192.168.1.130", 8080);

    Ideally I would like rc=False if the emulator is not up.
