No Firebase App '[DEFAULT]' has been created - call Firebase.initializeApp() in Flutter and Firebase

I am building a Flutter application and I have integrated Firebase, but I keep getting this error when I click on a button either to register, login or logout. I have seen other people have asked the same question, but none seems to work for me. I am using Flutter and Android Studio. How can I fix this problem?

This is an excerpt of my code

class HomeScreen extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _HomeScreenState createState() => _HomeScreenState();
}

class _HomeScreenState extends State<HomeScreen> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      backgroundColor: Colors.red,
      body: Center(
        child: Container(
          child: RaisedButton(
            onPressed: () {
              FirebaseAuth.instance.signOut().then((value) {
                Navigator.pushReplacement(
                    context,
                    MaterialPageRoute(
                        builder: (context) =>
                            LoginScreen()));
              });
            },
            child: Text("Logout"),
          )
        )
      )
    );
  }
}

Below is the thrown exception

What does Firebase initialize app do?

const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig); A Firebase App is a container-like object that stores common configuration and shares authentication across Firebase services. After you initialize a Firebase App object in your code, you can add and start using Firebase services.

All Firebase versions have been updated and now you have to call Firebase.initializeApp() before using any Firebase product, for example:

First, all Firebase products now depend on firebase_core version (0.5.0+), therefore you need to add it in the pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  firebase_core : ^0.5.0
  # cloud_firestore: ^0.14.0 other firebase dependencies

Then you have to call Firebase.initializeApp():

First Example

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

// Import the firebase_core plugin
import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(App());
}

class App extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return FutureBuilder(
      // Initialize FlutterFire
      future: Firebase.initializeApp(),
      builder: (context, snapshot) {
        // Check for errors
        if (snapshot.hasError) {
          return SomethingWentWrong();
        }

        // Once complete, show your application
        if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.done) {
          return MyAwesomeApp();
        }

        // Otherwise, show something whilst waiting for initialization to complete
        return Loading();
      },
    );
  }
}

Second Example with Firestore:

import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  // This widget is the root of your application.
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
      theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
      ),
      home: FirstRoute(title: 'First Route'),
    );
  }
}

class FirstRoute extends StatefulWidget {
  FirstRoute({Key key, this.title}) : super(key: key);
  final String title;

  @override
  _FirstRouteState createState() => _FirstRouteState();
}

class _FirstRouteState extends State<FirstRoute> {
  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(
          title: Text("test"),
        ),
        body: FutureBuilder(
          future: getData(),
          builder: (context, AsyncSnapshot<DocumentSnapshot> snapshot) {
            if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.done) {
              return Column(
                children: [
                  Container(
                    height: 27,
                    child: Text(
                      "Name: ${snapshot.data.data()['name']}",
                      overflow: TextOverflow.fade,
                      style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
                    ),
                  ),
                ],
              );
            } else if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.none) {
              return Text("No data");
            }
            return CircularProgressIndicator();
          },
        ));
  }

  Future<DocumentSnapshot> getData() async {
    await Firebase.initializeApp();
    return await FirebaseFirestore.instance
        .collection("users")
        .doc("docID")
        .get();
  }
}

Third Example:

Initialize it in initState() then call setState() which will call the build() method.

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    Firebase.initializeApp().whenComplete(() { 
      print("completed");
      setState(() {});
    });
  }

Fourth Example:

Initialize it in the main() method after calling WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp();
  runApp(MyApp());
}

Note: You only have to call initializeApp() once

  1. Add to pubspec.yaml

    firebase_core :
    
  2. add to main.dart

    import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';
    
    void main() async {
       WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
       await Firebase.initializeApp();
       runApp(MyApp());
    }

If you followed Peter's answer and are still getting the same error, check to make sure anything else you have in your main function comes after the await Firebase.initializeApp() call, like so:

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp();
  FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.setCrashlyticsCollectionEnabled(true);
  FlutterError.onError = FirebaseCrashlytics.instance.recordFlutterError;
  runApp(MyApp());
}
