DDD Architecture

Usage

• Install Flutter
• Since this is a Firebase dependent project, either create a Firebase Project and follow Setup New Firebase or use our Firebase backend and follow Setup Existing Firebase
  • Firebase Phone Authentication (for authentication)
  • Cloud Firestore (not Realtime Database)
  • Firebase Storage (for storing images)
  • Firebase In-App Messaging (for custom messages)
• After enabling the above features, download the google-services.json and move it to the android/app folder.
• Execute flutter pub get to get the package dependencies.
• Use a physical device or an emulator and run flutter run.

Setup New Firebase

1. You'll need to create a Firebase instance. Follow the instructions at https://console.firebase.google.com.
2. Once your Firebase instance is created, you'll need to enable Google authentication.

• Go to the Firebase Console for your new instance.
• Click "Authentication" in the left-hand menu
• Click the "sign-in method" tab
• Click "Google" and enable it

3. Enable the Firebase Database

• Go to the Firebase Console
• Click "Database" in the left-hand menu
• Click the Cloudstore "Create Database" button
• Select "Start in test mode" and "Enable"

4. Debug keystore fingerprint

• Create an app within your Firebase instance for Android, with package name com.yourcompany.news
• Run the following command to get your SHA-1 key:

keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore

• In the Firebase console, in the settings of your Android app, add your SHA-1 key by clicking "Add Fingerprint".
• Follow instructions to download google-services.json
• Move google-services.json into /android/app/.

Double check install instructions for both:

• Google Auth Plugin
  • https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/firebase_auth
• Firestore Plugin
  • https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/cloud_firestore

Setup Existing Firebase

1. Generate SHA-1 Debug keystore fingerprint

• Run the following command to get your SHA-1 key:

keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore

2. Send the previously generated SHA-1 fingerprint to us, by contacting [email protected]. We will add your fingerprint to our existing Firebase backend.

3. We will send back the google-services.json file which should be placed in the android/app folder.
