RxFirebase

RxJava wrapper on Google's Firebase for Android library.

Usage

Library provides set of static methods of classes:

• RxFirebaseAuth
• RxFirebaseUser
• RxFirebaseDatabase
• RxFirebaseStorage

Authentication:

Sign in anonymously and get token:

RxFirebaseAuth.signInAnonymously(FirebaseAuth.getInstance())
                .flatMap(x -> RxFirebaseUser.getToken(FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser(), false))
                .subscribe(token -> {
                    Log.i("RxFirebaseSample", "user token: " + token.getToken());
                }, throwable -> {
                    Log.e("RxFirebaseSample", throwable.toString());
                });

Database:

Many thanks to @renanferrari for making it much more flexible.

You can simply observe values providing the Class of expected data like:

RxFirebaseDatabase.observeSingleValue(reference.child("users").child("nick"), User.class)
            .subscribe(user -> {
                // process user value(nullable)
            });

or providing your own mapper between DataSnapshot and your data type:

RxFirebaseDatabase.observeSingleValueEvent(reference.child("posts"),
                dataSnapshot -> {
                    // do your own mapping here
                    return new User();
                })
                .subscribe(user -> {
                    // process user value
                });

There are some pre-defined mappers to make things easier:

Observing list values

RxFirebaseDatabase.observeSingleValueEvent(reference.child("posts"), DataSnapshotMapper.listOf(BlogPost.class))
                .subscribe(blogPost -> {
                    // process blogPost list item
                });

Observing map values

        RxFirebaseDatabase.observeSingleValueEvent(reference.child("posts"), DataSnapshotMapper.mapOf(BlogPost.class))
                .subscribe(blogPostAsMapItem -> {
                    // process blogPost as key-value pair
                });

Storage

Download file from Firebase storage

StorageReference storageRef = FirebaseStorage.getInstance().getReferenceFromUrl("gs://project-1125675579821020265.appspot.com");
RxFirebaseStorage.getFile(storageRef.child("README.md"), targetFile)
        .subscribe(snapshot -> {
            Log.i("RxFirebaseSample", "transferred: " + snapshot.getBytesTransferred() + " bytes");
        }, throwable -> {
            Log.e("RxFirebaseSample", throwable.toString());
        });

or download file as bytes array

RxFirebaseStorage.getBytes(storageRef.child("README.md"), 1024 * 100)
                .subscribe(bytes -> {
                    Log.i("RxFirebaseSample", "downloaded: " + new String(bytes));
                }, throwable -> {
                    Log.e("RxFirebaseSample", throwable.toString());
                });
