request: Support Windows with `flutterfire configure`

[Adil Hanney]

Is there an existing feature request for this?

• I have searched the existing issues.

Command

No response

Description

Support Windows with flutterfire configure.
The generated lib/firebase_options.dart should look like this:

class DefaultFirebaseOptions {
  static FirebaseOptions get currentPlatform {
    switch (defaultTargetPlatform) {
      case TargetPlatform.windows:
        return windows;
  }

  static const FirebaseOptions windows = FirebaseOptions(
    apiKey: '____________________________',
    appId: '_:_____________:windows:___________',
    messagingSenderId: '___________',
    projectId: '___________',
    authDomain: '________________.firebaseapp.com',
    storageBucket: '___________________.appspot.com',
    measurementId: 'G-____________',
  );

Reasoning

Following firebase/flutterfire#11516, we now have Windows support in firebase_core.
However, flutterfire configure doesn't have a Windows option yet.

Any update on this?

I was trying to use firestore with desktop app using flutter, and I couldn't find any working solution.

I tried this and it worked:
on the firebase_option.dart file I change the code to this:

and this for the main.dart file:

"I don't know if there will be any problem on this, I just wanted to use firebase with desktop. If there is anything new, I'll post it here"

The Windows support hasn't been released to pub.dev yet, so you'll need to use a local development version:

git clone https://github.com/invertase/flutterfire_cli
cd flutterfire_cli

# Activate CLI from path:
dart pub global activate --source="path" . --executable="flutterfire" --overwrite

# Confirm you now using a local development version:
flutterfire --help
# You should now see a banner printed at the top of the help output similar to:
# ------------------------------------------------------------------
# | You are running a local development version of FlutterFire CLI. |
# ------------------------------------------------------------------

Then you can run flutterfire configure in your Flutter app's folder.
