How to configure Firebase App multiple times? [duplicate] - firebase

Question

I have an app already that I was able to build completely with SwiftUI.
I was using Firebase for authentication and notifications using Cloud Functions.
Now with the new SwiftUI App->Scene->View construct, I am unable to add the setup to my app.
For example -> The initial FirebaseApp.configure() would initially go in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in AppDelegate, now I am at a loss of where to add this configuration.
Same goes with setting up remote notifications.
PS: Please comment if more details/code of the previous app is required. I did not add any code, cause I felt it was unnecessary.

Answer 1

There are three approaches for initialising third part frameworks in the new SwiftUI life cycle:
Using the old life cycle model
You can still use the old life cycle model:
Option 1: Use the UIKit App Delegate life cycle
When creating a new SwiftUI project, you can choose the old life cycle model. This will create an AppDelegate and a SceneDelegate as before. Not as fancy as using SwiftUI all the way, I admit - but definitely the easiest and most straightforward way.
Using the new life cycle model
If you want to use the new life cycle model, use either one of the following approaches.
Option 2: Use the App's initialiser
You can override the default initialiser of your App class, like this:
import SwiftUI
import Firebase
#main
struct SO62626652_InitialiserApp: App {
init() {
FirebaseApp.configure()
}
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
}
}
Option 3: Use # UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor
In you App class, define a property that holds a reference to your AppDelegate, and let SwiftUI inject the AppDelegate using the # UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor property wrapper, like this:
import SwiftUI
import Firebase
#main
struct SO62626652_AppDelegateAdaptorApp: App {
#UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor private var appDelegate: AppDelegate
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
}
}
class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
FirebaseApp.configure()
return true
}
}

Found the answer on the link below:
hackingWithSwift
The code from the page is below:
class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
print("Your code here")
FirebaseApp.configure()
return true
}
}
And inside the App
we need to add the below line:
#UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate.
The explanation is on the link.
