"castro732/laravel-firebase-synchronization": "~2.0"

Or run composer require castro732/laravel-firebase-synchronization if you prefer that., _(*5)

, _(*6)

Usage

Configuration

This package requires you to add the following section to your .env file:, _(*7)

# Firebase
FIREBASE_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL="https://domain.firebaseio.com"
FIREBASE_JSON_DIR="/your-app-firebase.json"

You can get the json from your Firebase Console > Settings > Firebase Admin SDK and click Generate New Private Key., _(*8)

Note: This package only requires the configuration keys database_url and secret. The other keys are only necessary if you want to also use the firebase JS API., _(*9)

Synchronizing models

To synchronize your Eloquent models with the Firebase realtime database, simply let the models that you want to synchronize with Firebase use the Mpociot\Firebase\SyncsWithFirebase trait., _(*10)

use Castro732\Firebase\SyncsWithFirebase;

class User extends Model {

    use SyncsWithFirebase;

}

The data that will be synchronized is the array representation of your model. That means that you can modify the data using the existing Eloquent model attributes like visible, hidden or appends., _(*11)

If you need more control over the data that gets synchronized with Firebase, you can override the getFirebaseSyncData of the SyncsWithFirebase trait and let it return the array data you want to send to Firebase., _(*12)
