I guess I should have used python-firebase... but I didn't pick python-firebase because there are two of them and I didn't know which one to choose 😂

But anyway, I started playing with Firebase the other day, and this python wrapper seemed pretty easy for firebase api.

What you have to do is pretty simple.
* Create a project on Firebase
* Add Firebase to your app
* Install pyrebase
And... start coing!

1. Go to [Firbase console](https://console.firebase.google.com/) 
Log in with your google account and create your project.

Like this 👇

Just "**Continue**"

And "**Create project**"

Once project is created, add firebase to your app like this 👇
I will pick web but you can add iOS or Android too.

Name your app and "**Register app**"

You will get a config data like this 
![image.png](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZibDANTHv53AG2auHQ6FQHoHv8yVQUnmghGai6ZZm5Gv/image.png)
(this is not my config actually)

Project and app are all setup.

You only need this config part for python so copy and paste and make it like a real dictionary.

```
# Your web app's Firebase configuration
firebase_config = {
    "apiKey": "fireBaeIzaSyDJIQ7LiBG7QK7dUBPW3M1cGBFPTw1BE",
    "authDomain": "fireBae-9df46.firebaseapp.com",
    "databaseURL": "https://fireBae-9df46.firebaseio.com",
    "storageBucket": "fireBae-9df46.appspot.com",
}
```

Before you use Firebase in your python project, you need to install pyrebase library.
I have a better library so DO NOT actually install this library but this is how you install.
```pip install pyrebase```

Now the python part.
It is pretty simple.

```
import pyrebase

firebase_config = {
    "apiKey": "fireBaeIzaSyDJIQ7LiBG7QK7dUBPW3M1cGBFPTw1BE",
    "authDomain": "fireBae-9df46.firebaseapp.com",
    "databaseURL": "https://fireBae-9df46.firebaseio.com",
    "storageBucket": "fireBae-9df46.appspot.com",
}
firebase = pyrebase.initialize_app(firebase_config )

db = firebase.database()
```
This is pretty much it. You can just save data into firebase or retreive data from firebase.

**Save Data**
```
data = {
    "username": "tomoyan"
}
results = db.child("users").push(data)
```

**Retrieve Data**
```
users = db.child("users").get()
for user in users .each():
    print(user.key()) 
    print(user.val()) 
```

using pyrebase is pretty simple, but a lot of stuff aren't working like this documentation.
https://github.com/thisbejim/Pyrebase
So that is why I hate pyrebase.

I use **pyrebase4** instead.
So install this library
```pip install pyrebase4```

And the same code will work especially like these things

What am I using this for?
