Hey, guys . Please , is it possible to have firebase components in Payload . I mean have a data collection table in the admin dashboard and have the connected form in the front end . Either as a block or hard coded . Or is it a bad idea
@Daniel502 Hey Daniel, you could surely pull information from Firebase via their API/SDK, however, and display the data in a component. However, Payload handles authentication, data, mostly everything Firebase would be doing for a basic site. What feature set are you looking to implement specifically from Firebase? If it's a matter of data, you could always import your data from Firebase into Payload
@notchris the issue is with the form plugin not having a file upload feature . I'd like to be able to upload files in my form submission data that I can also download. I tried adding said feature to payload but I'm not having luck with it .. firebase seemed the fastest alternative
@Daniel502 Payload has a built in upload field, if you define an upload collection
https://payloadcms.com/docs/fields/upload
@notchris and this works for forms?
@notchris do you have any blog or documentation how to use OTP based login?
@Sachin I don't have a blog post on that topic, what would you like to know specifically?
@notchris can payload be configured to use firebase storage as the file storage?
Hmm, I think with a plugin it's possible, though I haven't look much at how data is stored
It may not even be that hard depending on how the existing upload service integrates
Meaning I have to write my own plugin?
@Skillful Plastic To add firebase as an additional upload provider for payload, yes. However, the existing plugins for S3 etc, should have done most of the work, you may be able to fork the plugin, update some of the logic that is particular to the service and test that out
Can you please send links to these plugins?
I found the plugin and turns out it supports gcp ootb. Thanks @notchris
