I’m trying to use Firebase with Ionic. My instructor has provided a file that we can use as a provider, which is:
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
declare var firebase: any;
@Injectable()
export class FirebaseProvider {
constructor() {
let config = {
apiKey: "",
authDomain: "",
databaseURL: "",
storageBucket: "",
messagingSenderId: ""
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);
}
db() {
return firebase;
}
}
The fields from config are populated with our Firebase credentials.
I imported both in app.ts and login.ts (where I’m trying to use the API), but I get this on console when I serve the app:
EXCEPTION: Error: Uncaught (in promise): EXCEPTION: Error in ./LoginPage class LoginPage_Host - inline template:0:0
ORIGINAL EXCEPTION: ReferenceError: firebase is not defined
ORIGINAL STACKTRACE:
ReferenceError: firebase is not defined
