So, I worked on my react native app while running android emulators for a while, and during that time, I had initialized a second firebase app using @react-native-firebase/app other than my main one which is working fine on both android and iOS. I was fully capable of using the second app I had initialized, but then I began to run it on an iOS simulator and that's when things went downward and I got this error: FirebaseApp instance may not be nil. Use FirebaseApp.app() if you'd like to use the default FirebaseApp instance. whenever I tried to fetch a document and I still haven't been able to fix. I tried logging the second app using console.log(firebase.app('appName') and it would show me all the correct methods and variables so it wasn't undefined. I don't want to add another Google-services.plist file, since that would mess up my analytics. does anyone have any idea as to how I could solve this?
Here's where I initialize my second app:
import auth from '@react-native-firebase/auth';import analytics from '@react-native-firebase/analytics';import storage from '@react-native-firebase/storage';import firestore from '@react-native-firebase/firestore';import GlobalHandler from '../GlobalHandler/GlobalHandler';import {EmptyAvatar} from '../Image Requires/imageImports';import {showMessage} from 'react-native-flash-message';import { LocalNotification } from '../PushNotifications/PushNotifications';const secondApp = app.initializeApp( { apiKey: 'MY_API_KEY', authDomain: 'MY_PROJECT.firebaseapp.com', databaseURL: 'https://MY_PROJECT.firebaseio.com', projectId: 'MY_PROJECT', storageBucket: 'MY_PROJECT.appspot.com', messagingSenderId: 'MESSAGING_SENDER_ID', appId: 'MY_APP_ID', measurementId: 'MEASUREMENT_ID', }, {name: 'second'},);And when I use it for example here: console.log((await firestore(app.app('second')).collection('users').doc(DOC_ID).get()).data())The error above is thrown.
Here's my podfile:
