A firebase data provider for the React-Admin framework. It maps collections from the Firebase database (Firestore) to your react-admin application. It's an npm package!
Pull requests welcome!!
(GET, POST, GET_LIST ect...)
<FileInput />
fieldyarn add react-admin-firebase firebase
or
npm install --save react-admin-firebase firebase
A simple example based on the React Admin Tutorial.

import * as React from 'react';
import { Admin, Resource } from 'react-admin';
import { PostList, PostShow, PostCreate, PostEdit } from "./posts";
import {
FirebaseAuthProvider,

const dataProvider = FirebaseDataProvider(config, options);
...
<Admin
dataProvider={dataProvider}

<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} show={PostShow} create={PostCreate} edit={PostEdit}/>
</Admin>
...
Using the FirebaseAuthProvider
you can allow authentication in the application.
const dataProvider = FirebaseDataProvider(config);
const authProvider = FirebaseAuthProvider(config);
...
<Admin
dataProvider={dataProvider}
authProvider={authProvider}
>
...
Also checkout how to login with: Google, Facebook, Github etc... (Example Here)
And you might want a "Forgot password" button... (Example Here)
To get the currently logged in user run const user = await authProvider.checkAuth()
, this will return the firebase user object, or null if there is no currently logged in user.
NOTE: Realtime updates were removed in react-admin
v3.x (see https://github.com/marmelab/react-admin/pull/3908). As such, react-admin-firebase
v3.x also does not support Realtime Updates. However, much of the original code used for this functionality in react-admin
v2.x remains - including the documentation below. For updates on the implementation of realtime please follow these issues:
Get realtime updates from the firebase server instantly on your tables, with minimal overheads, using rxjs observables!
...
import {
FirebaseRealTimeSaga,
FirebaseDataProvider
} from 'react-admin-firebase';
...
const dataProvider = FirebaseDataProvider(config);
const firebaseRealtime = FirebaseRealTimeSaga(dataProvider);
...
<Admin
dataProvider={dataProvider}
customSagas={[firebaseRealtime]}
>
...
Trigger realtime on only some routes using the options object.
...
const dataProvider = FirebaseDataProvider(config);
const options = {
watch: ['posts', 'comments'],
dontwatch: ['users']
}
const firebaseRealtime = FirebaseRealTimeSaga(dataProvider, options);

Monitor file upload data using custom React component which listen for following events (CustomEvent
):
FILE_UPLOAD_WILL_START
FILE_UPLOAD_START
FILE_UPLOAD_PROGRESS
FILE_UPLOAD_PAUSED
FILE_UPLOAD_CANCELD
FILE_UPLOAD_COMPLETE
FILE_SAVED
All events have data passed in details
key:
fileName
: the file anmedata
: percentage for FILE_UPLOAD_PROGRESS
Events are sent to HTML DOM element with id "eventMonitor". See demo implementation for example at src-demo/src/App.js;
