can you please elaborate the issue?

@ayushs136 check the "Flutter Web Plugins" project for more details.

I have started the process to introduce the support. Is there any guideline or blog post to outline the exact steps that I need to follow @ditman

@awazgyawali Thanks!!

I don't think there's anything written right now, but the rough steps are:

• Extract the common interface used by the plugin to a common package.
  • This also contains the "Method Channel" implementation used by the mobile versions of the plugin.
• Refactor the mobile plugin to use the Method Channel implementation that you created in the step above.
• Add Web support by implementing the same interface in the first step.

You can refer to:

• This PR: [cloud_firestore] Added Flutter web support firebase/flutterfire#1670 (cloud_firestore)
• This other PR: [cloud_functions] Prepare for web implementation firebase/flutterfire#1826 (cloud_functions)
• This doc about the "federated" architecture in general: https://flutter.dev/go/federated-plugins

@awazgyawali a new article about how to write plugins with federation has been published by @hterkelsen just now!

You can read it here:

• https://medium.com/flutter/how-to-write-a-flutter-web-plugin-part-2-afdddb69ece6

Let us know if you need some help to continue with the federation work you've started!

Hi @ditman. Thanks for updating this thread with the article. A month back I started the work and have done about 60% of the task but I was not able to make simple decisions as there was no guidelines to continue. As there is a blog now, ill come back to the work I left and try to finish it. I will let you know if I have any questions to make.

@awazgyawali thanks!! Also please do check out the other plugins that have been already migrated to web. cloud_firestore had many changes in the last month that might serve as inspiration!

It would be nice if you guys can share the progress of the work :). Thank you for your effort!

is there any updates about web plugin for firebase_database ?

Hi guys. I just want to add to some other requests about Firebase RealTime for the Web.... That it would be nice to know the progress... or some kinda way to track the on going updates that you guys are working on. thanks for all the great work!

Hi @ditman Can you check this comment. firebase/flutterfire#1835 (comment)

@awazgyawali apologies, I missed that notification! Thanks for the effort, I've commented in the PR with next steps. Ping me if I didn't make sense.

Hi, what sort of timeframe are you expecting to complete this by? A month, end of the year, next year? Thanks!

My priorities shifted slightly to other plugins and the web engine for the last few months, and haven't had time to look into firebase_database. However, it's not forgotten!

See, for example: firebase/flutterfire#2852 (comment)

It'll happen!

@ditman @Salakar ... thanks for hearing our plea! ;-)
I really request you guys to consider pushing it higher on the Flutter+Firebase priorities only because there are too many developers/engineers whose projects are stuck due to this... Believe me, thats more than the quantity of guys who are following up. I am not alone when I voice my concern of the Realtime Database being relegated to almost a last spot in making our FlutterFire plugins truly multiplatform(including web).
Seriously, Thanks again, We appreciate all you guys are packing into this - but please consider the RealTime DataBase as an equal that needs more hands on deck, incase you guys are over burdened. thanks again! And will await any good news of the build succeeding!

waiting for web support.....

Hey guys, trying to plan our business priorities for the next year, and many are predicated on moving some key apps to the web. Currently this plugin is the only blocker to that plan, so it's making it very hard to know whether we should invest in a React offering, move to another Firebase plugin, or wait in hope. Any rough guidance on dates would be very much appreciated.

Agree with the comment above. This is our only blocker from releasing a web app. I really appreciate all the work that people put into these plugins, but its a little disheartening this has been dropped. I would be happy to donate to get it moving. I sense there is a lot of demand and others willing to do the same. Thanks

@jameslester2004 ... the real disheartening part is that the professionals who guide our development believe in a fallacy that, "The Realtime Firebase Db is of least importance" . Whats also disheartening is that we dont have a single shred of information of whats the real status. Im quite taken aback by the way it has been handled. Especially from the choice of it being relegated to the least bit of importance... to ... a delayed time line.... to... pausing it due to null safety for other packages... etc etc.
And now its just a void. All the other packages had constant updates and they kept everyone in the loop. I really hope they can just get this over and done with cause honestly most of my clients have lost interest.

I was the author of this PR, which was trying to bring the web support on the plugin.

Bad luck to us that the PR came in the times when the flutterfire plugin was going on a very massive refactoring process. Core team didn't have the time to merge or even review the PR.

However as per this comment, seems the team is now open to receive PR's on this topic.

I'll try to find some time and start getting into it again. Also, If anybody is interested to contribute, please let me know. Let get this one done!!!!!

Hey, I'm in desperate need of this for web, unfortunately I do not have the skills to contribute to the project. Any ETA?

If you take the lead, I'm happy to (try to) help where I can...

I will pay 1000 $ worth bitcoin who will publish firebase realtime database web PR without any bug till the end of August !! consider this

I have created a separated package firebase_database_platform_interface and submitted the pull request firebase/flutterfire#6668

How did it go @deepak786 ? Really appreciate you taking the time to do this.

@jameslester2004 according to the comment firebase/flutterfire#1835 (comment), the team is looking for the PR which will improve the integration test first.

Then they will proceed further to have separated intercom_flutter_platform_interface.

I have submitted the pull request which will separate the intercom_flutter_platform_interface.

But I will try to improve the integration tests.

Another PR firebase/flutterfire#6868 submitted to improve the integration tests.

1. PR test(firebase_database): refactored and added some query integration tests firebase/flutterfire#6868 (to improve the integration tests)
2. PR refactor(firebase_database): firebase_database_platform_interface firebase/flutterfire#6668 (to create a separate platform interface)

I hope the above PRs will be reviewed soon.

After these PRs are merged, I will start working on the web platform package.

Great job Deepak. Really appreciate your efforts!

Yay, both the PRs are merged.

Now I can proceed with the web implementation.

if anyone wants to buy me a coffee, please don't hesitate.

@TahaTesser Should this be closed and let the flutterfire team handle this?

PR firebase/flutterfire#6952 is merged also. The web support to the real-time database will be released soon.

Thanks for the super hard work @deepak786! You've helped a ton of fellow flutter users with this wonderful contribution!!

@deepak786 Thanks a million. You're a legend! ;-)

Yay, both the PRs are merged.

Now I can proceed with the web implementation.
