Premiers pas avec Cloud Firestore

This quickstart shows you how to set up Cloud Firestore, add data, then view the data you just added in the Firebase console.

Create a Cloud Firestore database

If you haven't already, create a Firebase project: In the Firebase console, click Add project, then follow the on-screen instructions to create a Firebase project or to add Firebase services to an existing GCP project.
Navigate to the Cloud Firestore section of the Firebase console. You'll be prompted to select an existing Firebase project. Follow the database creation workflow.
Select a starting mode for your Cloud Firestore Security Rules:

Test mode

Good for getting started with the mobile and web client libraries, but allows anyone to read and overwrite your data. After testing, make sure to review the Secure your data section.

To get started with the web, iOS, or Android SDK, select test mode.

Locked mode

Denies all reads and writes from mobile and web clients. Your authenticated application servers (C#, Go, Java, Node.js, PHP, Python, or Ruby) can still access your database.

To get started with the C#, Go, Java, Node.js, PHP, Python, or Ruby server client library, select locked mode.
Select a location for your database.
- This location setting is your project's default Google Cloud Platform (GCP) resource location. Note that this location will be used for GCP services in your project that require a location setting, specifically, your default Cloud Storage bucket and your App Engine app (which is required if you use Cloud Scheduler).
- If you aren't able to select a location, then your project already has a default GCP resource location. It was set either during project creation or when setting up another service that requires a location setting.
Warning: After you set your project's default GCP resource location, you cannot change it.
Click Done.

When you enable Cloud Firestore, it also enables the API in the Cloud API Manager.

Set up your development environment

Add the required dependencies and client libraries to your app.

Web

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your Web app.

Add the Firebase and Cloud Firestore libraries to your app:

<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.21.0/firebase-app.js"></script>
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/7.21.0/firebase-firestore.js"></script>

The Cloud Firestore SDK is also available as an npm package.

npm install firebase@7.21.0 --save

You'll need to manually require both Firebase and Cloud Firestore.

const firebase = require("firebase");
// Required for side-effects
require("firebase/firestore");

iOS

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your iOS app.

Add the Cloud Firestore pod to your Podfile

pod 'Firebase/Firestore'

# Optionally, include the Swift extensions if you're using Swift.
pod 'FirebaseFirestoreSwift'

Save the file and run pod install.

Java

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your Android app.
In your project-level build.gradle file, make sure to include Google's Maven repository in both your buildscript and allprojects sections.
Add the Cloud Firestore Android library to your module (app-level) Gradle file (usually app/build.gradle):
```
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:21.6.0'
```

Kotlin+KTX

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your Android app.
In your project-level build.gradle file, make sure to include Google's Maven repository in both your buildscript and allprojects sections.
Add the Cloud Firestore Android library to your module (app-level) Gradle file (usually app/build.gradle):
```
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore-ktx:21.6.0'
```

Java

Add the Firebase Admin SDK to your app:

Using Gradle:

compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-admin:7.0.0'

Using Maven:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.google.firebase</groupId>
  <artifactId>firebase-admin</artifactId>
  <version>7.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Follow the instructions below to initialize Cloud Firestore with the proper credentials in your environment.

Python

Add the Firebase Admin SDK to your Python app:
```
pip install --upgrade firebase-admin
```
Follow the instructions below to initialize Cloud Firestore with the proper credentials in your environment.

C++

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your C++ project.
C++ interface for Android.

Gradle dependencies. Add the following to your module (app-level) Gradle file (usually app/build.gradle):

        android.defaultConfig.externalNativeBuild.cmake {
          arguments "-DFIREBASE_CPP_SDK_DIR=$gradle.firebase_cpp_sdk_dir"
        }

        apply from: "$gradle.firebase_cpp_sdk_dir/Android/firebase_dependencies.gradle"
        firebaseCpp.dependencies {
          // earlier entries
          auth
          firestore
        }

Binary dependencies. Similarly, the recommended way to get the binary dependencies is to add the following to your CMakeLists.txt file:

        add_subdirectory(${FIREBASE_CPP_SDK_DIR} bin/ EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL)
        set(firebase_libs firebase_auth firebase_firestore firebase_app)
        # Replace the target name below with the actual name of your target,
        # for example, "native-lib".
        target_link_libraries(${YOUR_TARGET_NAME_HERE} "${firebase_libs}")

To set up desktop integration, see Add Firebase to your C++ project.

Unity

Follow the instructions to add Firebase to your Unity project.

Initialize Cloud Firestore

Initialize an instance of Cloud Firestore:

Web

// Initialize Cloud Firestore through Firebase
firebase.initializeApp({
  apiKey: '### FIREBASE API KEY ###',
  authDomain: '### FIREBASE AUTH DOMAIN ###',
  projectId: '### CLOUD FIRESTORE PROJECT ID ###'
});

var db = firebase.firestore();

The values for `initializeApp` can be found in your web app's `firebaseConfig`. To persist data when the device loses its connection, see the Enable Offline Data documentation.

Swift

import Firebase

FirebaseApp.configure()

let db = Firestore.firestore()AppDelegate.swift

Objective-C

@import Firebase;

// Use Firebase library to configure APIs
[FIRApp configure];

FIRFirestore *defaultFirestore = [FIRFirestore firestore];AppDelegate.m

Add data

Cloud Firestore stores data in Documents, which are stored in Collections. Cloud Firestore creates collections and documents implicitly the first time you add data to the document. You do not need to explicitly create collections or documents.

Create a new collection and a document using the following example code.

Web

db.collection("users").add({
    first: "Ada",
    last: "Lovelace",
    born: 1815
})
.then(function(docRef) {
    console.log("Document written with ID: ", docRef.id);
})
.catch(function(error) {
    console.error("Error adding document: ", error);
});test.firestore.js

Swift

// Add a new document with a generated ID
var ref: DocumentReference? = nil
ref = db.collection("users").addDocument(data: [
    "first": "Ada",
    "last": "Lovelace",
    "born": 1815
]) { err in
    if let err = err {
        print("Error adding document: \(err)")
    } else {
        print("Document added with ID: \(ref!.documentID)")
    }
}ViewController.swift

Objective-C

// Add a new document with a generated ID
__block FIRDocumentReference *ref =
    [[self.db collectionWithPath:@"users"] addDocumentWithData:@{
      @"first": @"Ada",
      @"last": @"Lovelace",
      @"born": @1815
    } completion:^(NSError * _Nullable error) {
      if (error != nil) {
        NSLog(@"Error adding document: %@", error);
      } else {
        NSLog(@"Document added with ID: %@", ref.documentID);
      }
    }];ViewController.m

Java

// Create a new user with a first and last name
Map<String, Object> user = new HashMap<>();
user.put("first", "Ada");
user.put("last", "Lovelace");
user.put("born", 1815);

// Add a new document with a generated ID

            public void onSuccess(DocumentReference documentReference) {
                Log.d(TAG, "DocumentSnapshot added with ID: " + documentReference.getId());
            }
        })

Read data

To quickly verify that you've added data to Cloud Firestore, use the data viewer in the Firebase console.

You can also use the "get" method to retrieve the entire collection.

Web

db.collection("users").get().then((querySnapshot) => {
    querySnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
        console.log(`${doc.id} => ${doc.data()}`);
    });
});test.firestore.js

Swift

db.collection("users").getDocuments() { (querySnapshot, err) in
    if let err = err {
        print("Error getting documents: \(err)")
    } else {
        for document in querySnapshot!.documents {
            print("\(document.documentID) => \(document.data())")
        }
    }
}ViewController.swift

Objective-C

[[self.db collectionWithPath:@"users"]
    getDocumentsWithCompletion:^(FIRQuerySnapshot * _Nullable snapshot,
                                 NSError * _Nullable error) {
      if (error != nil) {
        NSLog(@"Error getting documents: %@", error);
      } else {
        for (FIRDocumentSnapshot *document in snapshot.documents) {
          NSLog(@"%@ => %@", document.documentID, document.data);
        }
      }
    }];ViewController.m

Secure your data

If you're using the Web, Android, or iOS SDK, use Firebase Authentication and Cloud Firestore Security Rules to secure your data in Cloud Firestore.

Here are some basic rule sets you can use to get started. You can modify your security rules in the Rules tab of the console.

Auth required

// Allow read/write access on all documents to any user signed in to the application
service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /{document=**} {
      allow read, write: if request.auth != null;
    }
  }
}

Locked mode

// Deny read/write access to all users under any conditions
service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /{document=**} {
      allow read, write: if false;
    }
  }
}

Test mode

// Allow read/write access to all users under any conditions
// Warning: **NEVER** use this rule set in production; it allows
// anyone to overwrite your entire database.
service cloud.firestore {
  match /databases/{database}/documents {
    match /{document=**} {
      allow read, write: if true;
    }
  }
}

If you're using one of the server SDKs, use Identity and Access Management (IAM) to secure your data in Cloud Firestore.
