1. Security Rules: unique() operator

   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 index table. This efficient approach would verify the uniqueness of specified fields within collections.

   Comparison to Existing Operations:

   Similar to the 'get()' and 'exists()' operations, the 'unique()' operator would provide developers a straightforward means to validate crucial data points such as usernames, email addresses, and more, all without the need for complex cloud functions.

   Example Usage:

   For instance, to ascertain unique usernames:

   Firestore Security Rules:

   function isUniqueUsername(username) {
     return unique(/databases/$(database)/documents/users, ['username', '==', username]);
   }
   

   Benefits:

   Introducing the 'unique()' operator not only simplifies the validation process and leverages the hidden index table but also eliminates the requirement for an additional cloud function. This comprehensive approach enhances Firestore's performance while maintaining developer-friendly functionalities.

   Conclusion:

   By implementing the 'unique()' operator, Firestore could effectively address the challenge of maintaining data uniqueness while offering a holistic solution that eliminates the need for cloud functions.

   Thank you for considering this feature request. I'm optimistic about the significant value it could add to Firestore and our development workflows.

2. Automatic SMS OTP read with English templates

   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.

   or

   2) Add support to Firebase SMS Templates for English variants, so those could be used solely for sending out OTP SMS with shorter app names set in the Store listing.

3. Replace collection with new set of documents as an atomic operation

   Many time, we have a collection that is created using data received from an API call and the collection needs to be reset to the new data received in the next API call. For e.g., I have a collaborative app. Each user can see who else in their address-book using the app, such that they can collaborate with them. I send the phone contacts to the backend and we check which contacts and using the app and initialize the contacts collection. The phone contacts are synched every day. The next day, when we get the phone contacts, I want simply find out who is using the app and replace the contacts collection with that data without finding out who was already present in the contacts collection, which contact data has changed and which contacts is no longer there. Currently, if I delete the collection and then recreate with new set of documents, the realtime update listener is triggered with empty collection causing unwanted behavior in the app.

6. Explain the format of the Firestore rules (and indexes) in firebase.json

   At https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli?authuser=0#the_firebasejson_file, the firebase.json examples mention the Firestore rules like this:

   "rules": "firestore.rules",
   "rules": "firestore.default.rules",
   "indexes": "firestore.default.indexes.json"

   What exactly is "firestore.rules"? A reserved string? An ID (pointing to what)? A filename (in what format)?

8. Crashlytics Section should have User perceived ANR Filter

   There are lot of ANR like https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk/issues/6147#issuecomment-2417385067

   Which has no solution even Firebase team concluded that.
   So, there should be a filter to segregate user perceived ANRs on crashlytics.

9. Native Swift implementation of the Real-time database client

   The current Swift client for the Real-time database is written in Objective-C with a Swift overlay.
   In order to allow using Firebase from Swift across different platforms like Windows and Linux, it would be awesome with a native Swift version. Alternatively a Swift version bridged directly from the firebase-cpp-sdk using the new Swift C++ interoperability.

   I did a port of the Objective-C code to Swift as an experiment, and I have it running on Linux just fine - together with the Auth-rewrite in Swift.

   The (very experimental) PR is here: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/pull/8670

10. Firestore: Use C++ implementation directly from Swift

    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.

13. Allow vapid key generation through a REST API call

    Currently, vapid key generation is only available from the console UI. This is an issue when you want to manage firebase setup in a CI pipeline. A REST API endpoint would resolve this.

14. Changestream

    Firestore does not support any actual CDC (Change Data Capture). A changestream similar to other NoSQL implementations (Mongo, DocumentDB, Azure Cosmos DB) would make the database a lot more usable and grant feature parity with other popular NoSQL databases. This changestream would expose operations like updates, inserts, and deletes for a client to come and retrieve from either a timestamp or a resume token.

15. Improve RemoteConfig conditions documentation

    Documentation about conditions for iOS and Android is lacking proper description for semver logic on parameter 'AppVersion'

    It seems that the condition properly evaluate operators
    >
>=
<
<=
    when the app version is a semver string i.e. 1.18.10 > 1.18.2

    but the documentation states that above operators are only working with numeric values :

    "...
    For string values:
    exactly matches,
    contains,
    does not contain,
    contains regex

    For numeric values:
    <, <=, =, !=, >, >=
    ..."

    The logic behind semver is very important and specific.
    To use it safetly we really need to be sure that the comparison is implemented as intended and documentation should describe it properly the implementation details.

    We really need semver comparison, otherwise simple matching on string is not useful to provide conditions based on AppVersion.
    At the same time we don't want to use because it works now with the risk it may change in the future because is not described in the docs.

    Please describe if the semver is implemented as intended to clear doubts.

    🙏

20. rules map

    In Firebase Firestore rules, we currently have various controls and functions, which are very handy. However, array management is not optimal. I propose introducing a map function for arrays in Firebase Firestore rules. This function would allow us to map arrays of objects, significantly simplifying the creation and management of rules.
