firebase-android-sdk VS laravel-firebase

Stub = class with same public functions and PACKAGE NAME (this is imporant) but the body of the function is empty. Lots of firebase modules are open source. Fcm is one of them https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk/tree/master/firebase-messaging

A quick Google of the snippet of the user agent you didn't mask gives this: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk/blob/master/transport/transport-backend-cct/src/main/java/com/google/android/datatransport/cct/CctTransportBackend.java

Since that crash is coming from inside Firebase Messaging, have you tried updating to a newer Firebase version? They had to fix their library to support Android 12 for this problem too https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk/issues/3115 I'm not sure which version it was fixed in though

No, you can't :) So, you need to set up some back end with logic that will handle scheduling and users' time zones. It's required too much time for simple logic. Also, the fix for Firebase SDK is a couple of rows for it. You can see PR from one user https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk/pull/3492

Firebase (though a freemium service) is open source as well - https://github.com/firebase/firebase-android-sdk

For more than a year or so, Android developers with growing resentment observed an onslaught of multiple bugs in such popular SDKs as Admob and Firebase. Those bugs cause spikes in what is called ANR (application not responsible) type of crashes. They're caused by issues in the SDKs themselves, and because of that developers have no means to reduce impact. In a few cases which I personally faced, responsible support teams simply ignore bugs and do nothing about them. Some of them have already existed for 2+ years with no fix on the horizon.

On the other hand, Google Play ranking algorithm is very harsh towards apps that exhibit ANRs. Even the smallest spike in ANR rate dramatically reduces an app's visibility, performance, and as a result - revenue. So we have a situation, where Google punishes developers for the bugs that Google has created.

This post is an attempt to bring attention to this topic since we already tried everything else.

There are some links to related bugs, and support topics discussion.

The issue is already reported on Firebase SDK Issue Link.

Though if you really want to use Laravel as your backend then I suggest you should use Laravel + Firebase combo. I have used this stack while building a realtime chat application like WhatsApp and love the architecture and simplicity. You can setup Firebase Admin SDK on your Laravel and update your RTDB or Cloud Firestore data from the server after validating it.

Currently trying to hook up firebase following the https://statamic.dev/knowledge-base/storing-entries-in-a-database tutorial and using the https://github.com/kreait/laravel-firebase package.

To get Firebase working with Laravel we need to pull in the following package. Once you've added the package you will then need to visit your Firebase console, visit your project settings, and click the service accounts option. Then you'll need to generate a new private key and download the json file which you will then need to upload to your server. I store mine in the storage directory. Next you'll need to add FIREBASE_CREDENTIALS= to your env file using the path to your firebase credentials. You can ignore the FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL=.

How can I get Laravel to send a request to my Firebase app to register the newly-created Laravel user with Firebase as well (using the user's UUID as a login and an algorithmically scrambled version as the password)? This is quite simple to do in most front-end frameworks (in Flutter it is`createUserWithEmailAndPassword), but I have been unable to figure out how to do it in Laravel. The documentation for theLaravel Firebase packagehasn't managed to answer my question.

We use FCM with Laravel in our apps at Treblle. We use this package: https://github.com/kreait/laravel-firebase . It’s great, works like a charm. The only thing i would say is a bit complex it the setup part where you have to generate a service account JSON and then download it and give tha package access to it. If you need help i can literary copy/paste pur code in the AM.
