This Yii2 component wraps kreait/firebase-php and allow to easy connect to the Firebase realtime database

Installation

Preferred way to install is through Composer:

php composer.phar require elfadl/yii2-firebase-helper

Configuration

...
'components' => [
    'firebase' => [
        'class'=>'elfadl\Firebase\Firebase',
        'credential_file'=>'service_account.json', // (see https://firebase.google.com/docs/admin/setup#add_firebase_to_your_app)
        'database_uri'=>'https://my-project.firebaseio.com', // (optional)
    ]
...
]

Optional

to use the autocomplete function of IDE (i.e. Phpstorm) you can optionally replace in the web/index.php the inclusion of Yii.php file and the Application instance:

replace:

require(__DIR__ . '/../../vendor/yiisoft/yii2/Yii.php');
//and 
(new yii\web\Application($config))->run();

with:

require (__DIR__.'/../../vendor/grptx/yii2-firebase/src/yii2/Yii.php');
//and
(new \elfadl\Firebase\web\Application($config))->run();

now when you need you can use elfadl\Firebase\yii2\Yii instead of Yii to use autocomplete of your IDE

Usage

Retrive a database ,reference and a value

$database = Yii::$app->firebase->getDatabase();
$reference = $database->getReference('path/to/child/location');
$value = $reference->getValue();

or just the reference and a value

$reference = Yii::$app->firebase->getReference('path/to/child/location');
$value = $reference->getValue();
