Applying Firebase configuration in MobileMessaging SDK - infobip/mobile-messaging-react-native-plugin GitHub Wiki

MobileMessaging SDK supports following ways of applying Firebase configuration:

1. [Preferable] Using Firebase configuration file (google-services.json)
2. Adding key/values from google-services.json to resource strings
3. Providing FirebaseOptions object to mobileMessaging.init method

Notice:

If you want to switch between types of configuration clean your project first, otherwise you can receive "Duplicate resources" errors.

1. Add 'com.google.gms:google-services' to android/build.gradle file

        buildscript {
           ...
           dependencies {
               ...
              //Google Services gradle plugin
              classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
           }
        }

2. Add apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' at the end of your android/app/build.gradle in order to apply Google Services Gradle Plugin
3. Setup Firebase for your project if it's not yet and add Firebase configuration file (google-services.json) to the app as described in Firebase documentation. Usually it needs to be added into android/app folder.

Add key/values from google-services.json to resource strings (app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml). Documentation of the Google Services Gradle Plugin gives the details of how to get these values from google-services.json file.

</resources>

Notice:

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' line should be removed from the build.gradle file, if it was added

Documentation of the Google Services Gradle Plugin gives the details of how to get these values from google-services.json file.

        var firebaseOptions = {
            //required parameters
            apiKey:"AIzbSyCILMsOuUKwN3qhtxrPq7FFemDJUAXTyZ8",
            applicationId:"1:1035469437089:android:73a4fb8297b2cd4f",
            projectId:"mydemoapp",
        };
        mobileMessaging.init(
        {
            applicationCode: '<your app code>',
            ios: {
                notificationTypes: ['alert', 'badge', 'sound'],
            },
            android: {
                firebaseOptions: firebaseOptions,
            }
         },
         () => {
                console.log('MobileMessaging started');
         },
         error => {
                console.log('MobileMessaging error: ', error);
         },
      );
