fastboot, ember simple auth and emberfire dont work each other

[marendra]

i tried to work with emberfire and embersimple auth, and followed the instruction, and it worked, but when i tried to use fastboot , it failed, it said " Error: The XMLHttpRequest compatibility library was not found.". I tried to use the guide from embersimple auth, by activated the cookie, yes it worked but the session failed to capture the login from firebase probably due i changed the session-stores to follow the guides from ember-simple-auth website, any idea to work around this problem?

thanks

Same issue. I gave up using emberfire. Instead I did this workaround.

1. Installed the package npm install xmlhttprequest --save. It'll likely save 'ember-fetch' in your package.json but xmlhttprequest is a dependency of it.

Added xmlhttprequest to fastbootdependencies in package.json

{
  "dependencies": {
    "xmlhttprequest": "1.8.0"
  },
  "fastbootDependencies": [
    "xmlhttprequest"
  ]
}

2. Downloaded firebase/app and firebase/auth and imported them in my ember-cli-build.js.

    app.import('vendor/firebase-app.js');
    app.import('vendor/firebase-auth.js');

3. Added 2 files in an app/instance-initializers folder

• The first was firebase.js file to initialize firebase.

export function initialize(applicationInstance) {
  if (firebase.apps.length === 0) {
    var firebaseConfig = {
       ...
    }

    firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
  }
}

export default {
  initialize
};

• The second was a xmlhttprequest.js file to require the library in Fastboot

export function initialize(applicationInstance) {
  if (typeof FastBoot !== 'undefined') {
    window.XMLHttpRequest = FastBoot.require('xmlhttprequest').XMLHttpRequest;
  }
}

export default {
  initialize
};

4. Added firebase as a global to my .eslintrc.js file so I don't get any errors compiling.

  globals: {
    firebase: "readonly"
  },

Done. I was able to console.log(firebase.auth()) from my Ember Service without the XMLHttpRequest error and I saw the output in both my terminal and the browser.

many thanks, can we use the firebase that you just initialize to work on firestore?
