Getting started

Ensure your development environment is set up for React Native by following the React Native documentation.

Install dependencies

  1. Install NPM dependencies with Yarn: yarn.
  2. Install CocoaPods inside of the ios directory: npx pod-install

Android: Setting up App Signing

Google Sign-In requires a keystore file to be added to your project and the Firebase console for both debug and release builds, we’ve included a debug one by default. To setup a new keystore file, follow the guide here.

Add your app id and name

This project is preconfigured with market.reactnative.firebaseauthkit as its app id. You will probably want to replace it using the rename-script npm script provided with this product.

Add your Firebase credentials

  1. Choose your existing Firebase project from the Firebase console.

    Creating a new project? Check out the React Native Firebase documentation.

  2. Add the Firebase credentials to your project by following documentation for Android and iOS.

WARNING The application will not start until you copy your GoogleServices-Info.plist file into ./ios/FirebaseAuthenticationKit/ and your google-services.json into ./android/app/. It will install and begin running but then crash immediately as those files are necessary for Firebase to start.

Run the app

  • Start the metro javascript bundler: yarn start
  • For android: yarn android
  • For iOS: yarn ios

Authentication Providers

The Firebase Authentication Example supports multiple authentication providers. Follow the links below for documentation on setting up each provider:
