VueFire Roadmap 2022-2023

[posva]

This is an issue to keep track of the upcoming release of VueFire v3. Note this is a high level roadmap, more details are added as I complete them and it helps people to get an overview of how things are going.

• Current Status: Stable
• Documentation
• Branch

1st Milestone

Estimate final delivery (means stable release) time: mid-November

• Cloudstore/Database
  • Upgrade to Firebase v9
  • Migrate test suite to Firebase Emulator
  • Design and implement a composable API for Vue
  • Migrate unit tests
  • Updates to the README
  • Documentation
    • Setup vitepress
    • Add Getting started instructions
    • Automatic API generation
    • Basic documentation for composables
    • Add back the options API docs
    • Update existing docs
    • Using with other libraries (Pinia, Vuex)
    • Add SSR Examples without Nuxt
    • Write a migration Guide from v2
  • Implement an Options API version of the composable API for binding data
  • Rework the existing Options API (improvements based on feedback)
  • Ensure SSR compatibility

The new version of VueFire is available on the next tag as an alpha version.

2nd Milestone

• Plugin rework: allow passing independent services
• Auth module integration
  • Reactive current user
  • Design composables for signin check
  • Investigate possible integrations with router navigation guards
• Storage integration
  • Design composables for uploading tasks
  • Composable for downloading URLs
  • SSR
• AppCheck
  • A plugin that injects the firebase app and allows the user to provide the credentials for recaptcha v3.
  • Add docs
  • Add options to nuxt module
• Nuxt Module/plugin
  • nuxt-vuefire package
  • SSR handling out of the box
  • Simple (zero-config or automated) Deployment to Firebase Hosting
    • Spark plan (no functions)
    • Blaze plan (with functions)
  • Document good practices around prerending
  • Document the different possibilities when deploying (SSR, SSG, SPA, mixed)
  • Explore other providers (Netlify, Vercel, etc)
  • TBD: other features worth integrating

Backlog

• Add API to automatically handle the SSR part for non reactive API like await list() for storage

Other issues

These is a list of feature requests I want to revisit:

• Support for SnapshotOptions #955
• Use withConverter together with bindFirestoreRef for firestoreAction #608
• Firestore Collection to map rather than list #685 should this be possible? Is withConverter() enough?
• Automatically expose promises when using firestore option #245

Thanks @posva for the hard work. Wish that the Nuxt Module would be finished soon.

Thanks! It actually has a lot of features already, you should give it a try 🙂

I realize I never closed this but it was completed a long while ago 😄
