Chatify Firestore

Firestore implementation of Chatify's ChatRepo and MessageRepo. Plug it into the core Chatify UI to get realtime chats and messages with Google Cloud Firestore and presence with Realtime Database.

Installation

Add dependencies:

flutter pub add chatify_firestore

Initialize Firebase in your app before using.

Usage

import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'package:firebase_core/firebase_core.dart';
import 'package:chatify/chatify.dart';
import 'package:chatify_firestore/chatify_firebase.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp();

  final me = const User(id: 'u1', name: 'Me', imageUrl: '');

  await Chatify.init(
    currentUser: me,
    chatRepo: FirestoreChatRepo(userId: me.id),
    messageRepoFactory: (chat) => FirestoreMessageRepo(chat: chat),
    uploaderFactory: (attachment) => /* Your AttachmentUploader implementation */
        throw UnimplementedError(),
    messageProviders: [
      // e.g. TextMessageProvider(), ImageMessageProvider(), ...
    ],
  );
}

What it provides

• FirestoreChatRepo: chats pagination, create/find/delete, unread counter
• FirestoreMessageRepo: messages pagination, CRUD, reactions, seen/delivered, presence status via Realtime Database

Notes

• You can combine this with any AttachmentUploader implementation (e.g. chatify_uploader_firebase_storage).
• Structure and field names used by the repos are defined in the source; migrating existing data may be required.
