For more information, visit the Firebase Admin PHP SDK documentation.
Installation
The recommended way to install the Firebase Admin SDK is with Composer. Composer is a dependency management tool for PHP that allows you to declare the dependencies your project needs and installs them into your project.
composer require "kreait/firebase-php:^8.0"
Please continue to the Setup section to learn more about connecting your application to Firebase.
If you want to use the SDK within a Framework, please follow the installation instructions here:
- Laravel: https://packagist.org/packages/kreait/laravel-firebase
- Symfony: https://packagist.org/packages/kreait/firebase-bundle
