Does Firebase still support Mac OS X - July 2016

Question

I have an iOS App that uses the Firebase Realtime Database that I would like to create for Mac OS X. Does Firebase still support Mac OS X in the latest update as the Firebase console only shows the option to Add Firebase to an iOS, Android or web app.

If so, where can I find it?

Thank you

Answer 1

Thanks to the open source community, it's possible again to build a Firebase Realtime Database client on macOS. Details in the GitHub repo README.

Answer 2

As Paul said, you have to follow the instructions to get the pods right from the GitHub repository.

I added these lines to my Podfile

pod 'FirebaseCore', :git => 'https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk.git', :branch => 'master'
pod 'FirebaseStorage', :git => 'https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk.git', :branch => 'master'

Then on the AppDelegate

import FirebaseCore

func applicationDidFinishLaunching(_ aNotification: Notification) {
        FirebaseApp.configure()
}

Hope this helps!
