14+
[Firebase](https://firebase.google.com) provides the tools and infrastructure
15+
you need to develop, grow, and earn money from your app. This package supports
16+
web (browser), mobile-web, and server (Node.js) clients.

46+
47+
This SDK is intended for end-user client access from environments such as the
48+
Web, mobile Web (e.g. React Native, Ionic), Node.js desktop (e.g. Electron), or
49+
IoT devices running Node.js. If you are instead interested in using a Node.js
50+
SDK which grants you admin access from a privileged environment (like a server),
51+
you should use the
52+
[Firebase Admin Node.js SDK](https://firebase.google.com/docs/admin/setup/).
53+
54+
### Install the SDK
55+
56+
Install the Firebase NPM module:
57+
```
58+
$ npm init
59+
$ npm install --save firebase
60+
```
61+
62+
### Use Firebase in your app
63+
64+
1. Initialize Firebase in your app and create a Firebase App object:
65+
```js
66+
import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
67+
68+
// TODO: Replace the following with your app's Firebase project configuration
69+
const firebaseConfig = {
70+
//...
71+
};
72+
73+
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
74+
```
75+
76+
2. Access Firebase services in your app
77+
78+
Firebase services (like Cloud Firestore, Authentication, Realtime Database, Remote Config, and more) are available to import within individual sub-packages.
79+
80+
The example below shows how you could use the Cloud Firestore Lite SDK to retrieve a list of data.
81+
82+
```js
83+
import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
84+
import { getFirestore, collection, getDocs } from 'firebase/firestore/lite';
85+
// Follow this pattern to import other Firebase services
86+
// import { } from 'firebase/<service>';
87+
88+
// TODO: Replace the following with your app's Firebase project configuration
89+
const firebaseConfig = {
90+
//...
91+
};
92+
93+
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
94+
const db = getFirestore(app);
95+
96+
// Get a list of cities from your database
97+
async function getCities(db) {
98+
const citiesCol = collection(db, 'cities');
99+
const citySnapshot = await getDocs(citiesCol);
100+
const cityList = citySnapshot.docs.map(doc => doc.data());
101+
return cityList;
102+
}
103+
```
104+
105+
### Use a module bundler for size reduction
106+
107+
The Firebase Web SDK is designed to work with module bundlers to remove any
108+
unused code (tree-shaking). We strongly recommend using this approach for
109+
production apps. Tools such as the [Angular CLI](//angular.io/cli),
110+
[Next.js](//nextjs.org/), [Vue CLI](//cli.vuejs.org/), or [Create
111+
React App](//reactjs.org/docs/create-a-new-react-app.html) automatically
112+
handle module bundling for libraries installed through npm and imported into
113+
your codebase.
114+
115+
See [Using module bundlers with Firebase](/docs/web/module-bundling) for more information.
116+
117+
### Script include
118+
You can also load Firebase packages as script modules in browsers that support native ES modules.
119+
120+
```html
121+
<!-- use script module by specifying type="module" -->
122+
<script type="module">
123+
import { initializeApp } from 'https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-app.js';
124+
import { getFirestore, collection, getDocs } from 'https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-firestore-lite.js';
125+
// Follow this pattern to import other Firebase services
126+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-analytics.js";
127+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-app-check.js";
128+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-auth.js";
129+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-functions.js";
130+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-firestore.js";
131+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-storage.js";
132+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-performance.js";
133+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-remote-config.js";
134+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-messaging.js";
135+
// import {} from "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/${FIREBASE_VERSION}/firebase-database.js";
136+
137+
// TODO: Replace the following with your app's Firebase project configuration
138+
const firebaseConfig = {
139+
//...
140+
};
141+
142+
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
143+
const db = getFirestore(app);
144+
145+
// Get a list of cities from your database
146+
async function getCities(db) {
147+
const citiesCol = collection(db, 'cities');
148+
const citySnapshot = await getDocs(citiesCol);
149+
const cityList = citySnapshot.docs.map(doc => doc.data());
150+
return cityList;
151+
}
152+
</script>
153+
```
154+
155+
_Note: To get a filled in version of the above code snippet, go to the
156+
[Firebase console](https://console.firebase.google.com/) for your app and click on "Add
157+
Firebase to your web app"._
158+
159+
## Get the code (Node.js - server and command line)
160+
161+
### Install the SDK
162+
163+
While you can write entire Firebase applications without any backend code, many
164+
developers want to write server applications or command-line utilities using the
165+
Node.js JavaScript runtime.
166+
167+
You can use the same npm module to use Firebase in the Node.js runtime (on a
168+
server or running from the command line):
169+
170+
```
171+
$ npm init
172+
$ npm install --save firebase
173+
```
174+
175+
In your code, you can access Firebase using:
176+
177+
```js
178+
const { initializeApp } = require('firebase/app');
179+
const { getFirestore, collection, getDocs } = require('firebase/firestore');
180+
// ...
181+
```
182+
183+
If you are using native ES6 module with --experimental-modules flag (or Node 12+)
184+
you should do:
185+
186+
```js
187+
import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
188+
import { getFirestore, collection, getDocs } from 'firebase/firestore';
189+
// ...
190+
```
191+
192+
Please see [Environment Support](https://firebase.google.com/support/guides/environments_js-sdk) for which packages
193+
are available in Node.js.
194+
195+
## Compat packages
196+
Version 9 provides a set of compat packages that are API compatible with Version 8. They are intended to
197+
be used to make the upgrade to the modular API easier by allowing you to upgrade your app piece by piece.
198+
See the [Upgrade Guide](https://firebase.google.com/docs/web/modular-upgrade) for more detail.
199+
200+
To access the compat packages, use the subpath `compat` like so:
201+
```js
202+
// v9 compat packages are API compatible with v8 code
203+
import firebase from 'firebase/compat/app';
204+
import 'firebase/compat/auth';
205+
import 'firebase/compat/firestore';
206+
```
207+
