Firebase Realtime Database for Flutter

A Flutter plugin to use the Firebase Realtime Database API.

For Flutter plugins for other Firebase products, see README.md.

Usage

To use this plugin, add firebase_database as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file. You will also need the firebase_core dependency if you do not have it already.

Example connecting to the default database:

import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';
import 'package:firebase_database/firebase_database.dart';

final FirebaseApp app = FirebaseApp(name: '[DEFAULT]');
final DatabaseReference db = FirebaseDatabase(app: firebaseApp).reference();
db.child('your_db_child').once().then((result) => print('result = $result'));
