laravel-firebase VS fcm

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.

Most of the setup has been completed so now we can dive into some code. First, let's setup Firebase with Ionic-Vue. To do this we're going to need the capacitor community fcm package which can be found here. Once you've installed the package you'll need to go into Xcode and inside your project click on the AppDelegate file and import firebase like so:

To begin, we need to install Capacitor Firebase Cloud Messaging plugin. You can do with a simple command: npm i @capacitor-community/fcm
