Firebase Admin SDK for PHP v6.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2022-01-16 // over 2 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ This is a release with breaking changes. Please review the following changes and adapt your application where needed.

    ๐Ÿ‘ The supported way to interact with the SDK is to instantiate Components with the Kreait\Firebase\Factory::create* methods.

    Setup

    • It is now mandatory to provide a Firebase Project ID. When the project ID cannot be determined from the provided credentials (usually a service account), it can be provided by setting the GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=<project-id> environment variable or by calling $factory = $factory->withProjectId('project-id').
    • The environment variable FIREBASE_CREDENTIALS will not be evaluated anymore for credentials auto-discovery. If you rely on auto-discovery, use the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable. This was already supported in earlier versions and is the same environment variable the official Google Libraries use.
    • All components have been made final and marked as @internal, if you're type-hinting dependencies in your application code, make sure you type-hint the Kreait\Firebase\Contract\* interfaces, not the Kreait\Firebase\* implementations
    • ๐Ÿ”ง Kreait\Firebase\Factory has been locked down. It should only be used to configure and retrieve the services provided by the SDK as documented. The method Kreait\Firebase\Factory::createApiClient() will provide you with an authorized Guzzle HTTP Client that you can use for custom API operations.
    • ๐Ÿ‘ Kreait\Firebase\Factory::withVerifierCache() now expects a PSR-6 Cache Item Pool and doesn't directly support PSR-16 Caches anymore. If you only have a PSR-16 Cache available in your project, you can use an adapter, e.g. one provided by the symfony/cache component. If you're using the Firebase Bundle or the Laravel Package, this will be taken care of once they are updated to use the new release.

    Auth component

    • ๐Ÿ“œ Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::parseToken() and Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyIdToken() now return an instance of Lcobucci\JWT\UnencryptedToken instead of \Lcobucci\JWT\Token - this ensures access to its getClaims() method.
    • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyIdToken() now accepts an optional third parameter, $leewayInSeconds, to specify the number of seconds a token is allowed to be expired, in case that there is a clock skew between the signing and the verifying server. The previous default of a 300 seconds leeway has been removed, if you want to restore the previous behavior, call the method with the third parameter set: verifyIdToken($token, false, 300)
    • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyIdToken() will now throw either Kreait\Firebase\Exception\Auth\FailedToVerifyToken when the verification failed, or Kreait\Firebase\Exception\Auth\RevokedIdToken when the token has been revoked.
    • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyPasswordResetCode() now returns the email address the password was reset for.
      • This was previously done with the method Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyPasswordResetCodeAndReturnEmail() - this method has been removed.
    • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::confirmPasswordReset() now returns the email address the password reset was confirmed for.
      • This was previously done with the method Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::confirmPasswordResetAndReturnEmail() - this method has been removed.
    • The following methods were shortcuts for Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithIdpAccessToken() and Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithIdpIdToken() and have been removed.
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithAppleIdToken(), use signInWithIdpIdToken('apple.com', ...) instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithFacebookAccessToken(), use signInWithIdpAccessToken('facebook.com', ...) instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithGoogleIdToken(), use signInWithIdpIdToken('google.com', ...) instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::signInWithTwitterOauthCredential(), use signInWithIdpAccessToken('twitter.com', ...) instead
    • The following methods now return strings instead of value objects:
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::confirmPasswordReset()
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyPasswordResetCode()
      • Kreait\Firebase\RemoteConfig\User::email()
    • The following classes are mainly used for validation and have been marked internal. They shouldn't be used directly, as they could be updated with breaking changes or get removed entirely in the future.
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\ClearTextPassword
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Email
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Uid
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Url

    Realtime Database Component

    • ๐Ÿšš The constant Kreait\Firebase\Database::SERVER_TIMESTAMP has been moved to Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Database::SERVER_TIMESTAMP

    Other

    • โฌ‡๏ธ Dropped support for Guzzle <7.0
    • โฌ‡๏ธ Dropped support for lcobucci/jwt <4.1
    • โœ‚ Removed local phone number validation when giggsey/libphonenumber-for-php was installed. Phone numbers are validated by the Firebase Service in any case, and even when a phone number was considered valid, in rare cases the Firebase API rejected them still.
    • Replaced kreait/clock with beste/clock, which implements the proposed PSR-20 Clock Interface.
    • ๐Ÿšš The following classes and methods have been removed:
      • Kreait\Firebase\Auth\ActionCodeSettings\RawActionCodeSettings
      • Kreait\Firebase\Project\ProjectId
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Provider
      • Kreait\Firebase\Project\TenantId
      • Kreait\Firebase\Auth::setCustomUserAttributes(), use Kreait\Firebase\Auth::setCustomUserClaims() instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Auth::deleteCustomUserAttributes(), use Kreait\Firebase\Auth::setCustomUserClaims() with null values instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyPasswordResetCodeAndReturnEmail(), use Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::verifyPasswordResetCode() instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::confirmPasswordResetAndReturnEmail(), use Kreait\Firebase\Contract\Auth::confirmPasswordReset() instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Auth\UserRecord::$customAttributes, use Kreait\Firebase\Auth\UserRecord::$customClaims instead
      • Kreait\Firebase\Factory::withEnabledDebug(), use Kreait\Firebase\Factory::withHttpDebugLogger() instead
    • The following classes are mainly used for validation and have been marked internal. They shouldn't be used directly, as they could be updated with breaking changes or get removed entirely in the future.
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\ClearTextPassword
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Email
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Uid
      • Kreait\Firebase\Value\Url
