Build a Mobile App Using Firebase and App Engine Flexible Environment

This repository contains Android client sample code for the “Build a Mobile App Using Firebase and App Engine Flexible Environment” solution. Sample client code can be found here.

Deployment Requirements

• Enable the following services in the Cloud console: https://console.cloud.google.com
• Google App Engine
• Google Compute Engine
• Sign up for Firebase and create a new project in the Firebase console.

Apache Maven is required in build environment. Firebase is a Google product, independent from Google Cloud Platform.

Get credentials and configure properties. This step is optional and you may skip it if it's already been set up.

• Get credentials for the tools:

  loud auth login

  loud configure set project <Project ID>
  

Configuration

• Login to Firebase console and enable “Google” sign in provider from “SIGN IN METHOD” tab in “Auth” menu.

• From “Settings”, click “Permissions” and move to “IAM & Admin” menu, then create a new service account and download JSON file (more details). Note that this JSON file is different from the “google-services.json” file used in the Android client.

• Copy the JSON file under “WEB-INF” source directory.

• Replace following initial parameters in “WEB-INF/web.xml”.

t-param>
<param-name>credential</param-name>
