🔥 Firebase Integration - Complete Setup Guide
Step 1: Firebase Project Setup
1.1 Create Firebase Project
```javascript
// Go to Firebase Console (https://console.firebase.google.com)
// 1. Click "Add Project"
// 2. Project Name: "My Music"
// 3. Enable Google Analytics (Recommended)
// 4. Create Project
```
1.2 Add Android App to Firebase
```
1. In Firebase Console, click "Android icon"
2. Package name: com.yourcompany.mymusic
3. App nickname: My Music
4. Download google-services.json
5. Place in app/ folder
```
Step 2: Firebase Authentication Setup
2.1 Enable Authentication Methods
```javascript
// Firebase Console → Authentication → Sign-in method
// Enable:
// ✅ Email/Password
// ✅ Google Sign-In
// ✅ Anonymous (for trial users)
```
2.2 Authentication Rules (Firestore)
```javascript
// Firebase Console → Firestore Database → Rules
rules_version = '2';
service cloud.firestore {
match /databases/{database}/documents {
// Users can only access their own data
match /users/{userId} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null && request.auth.uid == userId;
}
match /playlists/{playlistId} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null &&
resource.data.userId == request.auth.uid;
}
match /favorites/{favoriteId} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null &&
resource.data.userId == request.auth.uid;
}
}
}
```
Step 3: Cloud Firestore Database
3.1 Database Structure
```javascript
// Collections structure:
/users/{userId}
- displayName: string
- email: string
- profileImage: string
- premium: boolean
- createdAt: timestamp
/playlists/{playlistId}
- name: string
- userId: string
- songs: array
- createdAt: timestamp
- isPublic: boolean
/favorites/{favoriteId}
- userId: string
- songPath: string
- addedAt: timestamp
/userPreferences/{userId}
- theme: string
- equalizerPreset: string
- playbackSpeed: number
- shakeToShuffle: boolean
/analytics/{sessionId}
- userId: string
- action: string
- songId: string
- timestamp: timestamp
```
3.2 Firestore Security Rules
```javascript
rules_version = '2';
service cloud.firestore {
match /databases/{database}/documents {
match /{document=**} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null;
}
// Specific rules for each collection
match /users/{userId} {
allow read, write: if request.auth.uid == userId;
}
match /playlists/{playlistId} {
allow read, write: if request.auth.uid == resource.data.userId;
allow read: if resource.data.isPublic == true;
}
}
}
```
Step 4: Cloud Storage for Media
4.1 Storage Structure
```
/music/{userId}/
/uploads/
/backup/
/shared/
/videos/{userId}/
/uploads/
/backup/
```
4.2 Storage Security Rules
```javascript
rules_version = '2';
service firebase.storage {
match /b/{bucket}/o {
// Users can upload their own files
match /music/{userId}/{allPaths=**} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null && request.auth.uid == userId;
}
match /videos/{userId}/{allPaths=**} {
allow read, write: if request.auth != null && request.auth.uid == userId;
}
// Public read for shared content
match /shared/{allPaths=**} {
allow read: if true;
allow write: if request.auth != null;
}
}
}
```
Step 5: Cloud Functions for AI Features
5.1 AI Music Recommendation Function
```javascript
const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
admin.initializeApp();
exports.generateRecommendations = functions.firestore
.document('analytics/{sessionId}')
.onCreate(async (snap, context) => {
const data = snap.data();
const userId = data.userId;
// AI-based recommendation logic
const recommendations = await generateAIRecommendations(userId);
// Save to user's recommendations
await admin.firestore()
.collection('users')
.doc(userId)
.update({
recommendations: recommendations,
lastUpdated: admin.firestore.FieldValue.serverTimestamp()
});
});
```
5.2 Metadata Correction Function
```javascript
exports.correctMetadata = functions.storage
.object()
.onFinalize(async (object) => {
const filePath = object.name;
// AI metadata analysis and correction
const correctedMetadata = await analyzeAudioMetadata(filePath);
// Update Firestore with corrected metadata
await admin.firestore()
.collection('correctedMetadata')
.add(correctedMetadata);
});
```
Step 6: Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics
6.1 Analytics Events Tracking
```javascript
// Track user interactions
const analyticsEvents = {
PLAY_SONG: 'play_song',
CREATE_PLAYLIST: 'create_playlist',
SHARE_MUSIC: 'share_music',
DOWNLOAD_CONTENT: 'download_content',
PURCHASE_PREMIUM: 'purchase_premium'
};
```
6.2 Crashlytics Setup
```javascript
// Automatic crash reporting
// No additional setup needed after adding dependency
```
Step 7: Remote Config for Dynamic Updates
7.1 Configuration Parameters
```javascript
// Firebase Console → Remote Config
// Add parameters:
- featured_playlists
- new_features
- premium_pricing
- ad_network_ids
- maintenance_mode
```
Step 8: In-App Messaging & Notifications
8.1 Cloud Messaging Setup
```javascript
// Firebase Console → Cloud Messaging
// Configure:
// - Notification messages
// - Data messages
// - Topic subscriptions
```
