TypeError: firebase.initializeApp is not a function.(In 'firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig)','firebase.initializeApp' is undefined)

When I import firebase on react-native then faces some issues like this.

TypeError: firebase.initializeApp is not a function

import * as firebase  from "firebase";
var firebaseConfig = {
  apiKey: "[data_private]",
  authDomain: "[data_private]",
  databaseURL: "https://[data_private].firebaseio.com",
  projectId: "[data_private]",
  storageBucket: "[data_private]",
  messagingSenderId: "[data_private]",
  appId: "[data_private]"
};
firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

Instead of:

firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

Use as:

const app = firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);

For me, this solution is working

Step 1: Install firebase using npm:

npm install --save firebase

Step 2: Add this line of code in your react native code:

var firebase = require('firebase');
var firebaseConfig = {
    apiKey: "[private_data]",
    authDomain: "[private_data]",
    projectId: "[private_data]",
    storageBucket: "[private_data]",
    messagingSenderId: "[private_data]",
    appId: "[private_data]",
    measurementId: "[private_data]"
};
const fireApp = firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
console.log(fireApp);

You are using firebase package which is for web. You must use native packages like react-native-firebase

You need to add the latest version of the firebase.

You can useyarn add @react-native-firebase/app or npm i @react-native-firebase/app.

And then import firebase from it.

For reference, you can use react-native-firebase

According to the docs:

First you need to install firebase package:

npm install --save firebase

Then import it using firebase/app:

// Firebase App (the core Firebase SDK) is always required and
// must be listed before other Firebase SDKs
import * as firebase from "firebase/app";
