This issue is not following the template because it is an announcement. Normal issues should follow issue template.

It's been a while, but finally some major features are released in the wildfire developer beta version.

The latest version is: wildfire-dev@0.5.4.

Because we don't have a plan for public release yet, if you want the fixes of issues of previous versions or want to try the new features, please follow the instruction below to manually switch to wildfire-dev@0.5.4.

Usage

Note: the new version includes major data structure & database security rules change. To avoid damaging old data, please create a new database to run the new version. We may publish a script for migrating old data to new database in the future.

Create a new Firebase / Wilddog project，copy & paste security rules。
Activate email-password login method in authentication.

Add following code to the right place of your website:

<div class="wildfire_thread"></div>
<script>
  var wildfireConfig = () => ({
    useDev: true, // Use this config to activate dev version
    version: '0.5.4', // Use this config to specify specific version
    databaseProvider: 'firebase',
    databaseConfig: {
        apiKey: "...",
        authDomain: "...",
        databaseURL: "...",
        projectId: "...",
        storageBucket: "...",
        messagingSenderId: "..."
    },
  })
</script>
