In this firebase swift episode I’ll guide you through creative coding, set up firebase ios, firebase rules, firebase updates and real-time database. This is a step by step tutorial on ios database, read data from firebase, realtime database, how to retrieve data from firebase and api ios. In this firebase tutorial we are going to fetch back our user profile data from Firebase Database and Firebase Storage. We will build out a simple User Profile with the help of LBTAComponents. We will even go for a small bug hunt at the end of this lesson. As always, we are going to build out everything in code and because we want a production state app. We will focus on firebase authentication, database as a service and fetch data from firebase in general. Don’t forget to subscribe to my channel for more ios firebase and swift database videos.

What other data would you fetch for your user? Leave your comments down below.

That is a very neat - nice - cool - clean - best way to explain a very simple important function .

I went through your playlist and did not find how do I upload the data to database and the show the same data to the appropriate user so he can login from any device and have the same data. It probably has to do with the UID but I am not sure how to implement. Do you have a video covering that?

Hi there, first off this has helped me so much as I have found getting data from firebase to be so confusing for some reason so really thank you!!!. The only issue is that for some reason when I run the program I get a "Thread 1: Fatal error: init(coder:) has not been implemented" in the cachedImageView in the LBTAComponents... Is there a solution to this because I tried to just delete that line of code but nothing :/.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hey there! - firstly great video...

I have followed your video in particular the way you fetch the info from Firebase and display the values. I am however getting a 'EXC_BAD_ACCESS' on this line of my code user.profilePictureURL)'

Here is my full function which uses a 'getLoggedinUserDetails()' to fetch the data and returns a CurrentUser object with the attributes required to display the 'name' and load the image.

Any ideas why I am getting this error?



import LBTAComponents

@IBOutlet weak var profileImg: CachedImageView!


//Displays the logged in user details eg; profile image and name
func displayUserDetails(){

if Auth.auth().currentUser != nil {

guard let uid = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid else { return }
uid, currentUserHandler: { (user) in

self.nameLbl.text = user.name
user.profilePictureURL) //Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=2, address=0x1b2baacc0)

})
}

}//end func

Hi I am receiving an error which I cannot get rid of. Listener at failed: permission_denied
Error Domain=com.firebase Code=1 "Permission Denied" Denied}


I have tried changing the database rules to {
"rules": {
".read": "auth != true",
".write": "auth != true"
}
}


But this does not fix it as I believe this is an old solution. Can you help me, please?
