SD10 / Nora

Nora is a Firebase abstraction layer for working with FirebaseDatabase and FirebaseStorage.

Stop spending all that time cleaning up your view controllers and trying to write reusable Firebase code.

Let Nora handle that for you. Your time is better spent on what you do best. Writing great Apps!

Simply put, working with Firebase just got whole lot easier.

Installation

CocoaPods Recommended

  pod 'Nora'

Example

Working with FirebaseDatabase

After setting up a target making requests is simple.

let database = DatabaseProvider<Users>()

database.request(.getUser(id: "1")) { result in
  switch result {
  case .success(let response):
    let snapshot = response.snapshot
  case .failure(let error):
    print(error.localizedDescription)
  }
}

Database Response Decoding

Provide a JSON initializer for your custom types and easily convert the database response:

let database = DatabaseProvider<Users>()

database.request(.getUser(id: "1")) { result in
  switch result {
  case .success(let response):
    let user = try? response.mapTo(User.init)
  case .failure(let error):
    print(error.localizedDescription)
  }
}

Working with FirebaseStorage

let storage = StorageProvider<Avatars>()
let avatarData = Data()
var meta = FIRStorageMetadata?

storage.request(.upload(avatarData, meta)) { result in
  switch result {
  case .success(_):
    print("Upload Success!")
  case .failure(let error):
    print(error.localizedDescription)
  }
}
