Firebase for Hybrid apps

[Farookh Muqri]

Hi all, 

I have a hybrid app built on Phonegap/Cordova. 

Can I install Firebase and use all its features including Deep Linking, Deferred Deep Linking and App Indexing on my Phonegap app?

Please let me know, 

Thanks a lot!

Hi Farookh,

You can see which features are supported in JavaScript by looking for the icon on the docs page for each feature. Certainly not all features are supported on Cordova.

Thanks a lot Kato. 

Also, one quick clarification - can I deep link into a Webview within a native iOS/Android app? Do I follow the same steps as a I would to deep link into a native screen of an app?

Please let me know, 

Thanks, 

Farookh

Hrm, I think you can probably pull this off, based on the blue box here:

But I'm not absolutely positive.

Hi Farookh,

I don't pretend to know exactly what this means, but here's me channeling an expert on the topic with some more details. I hope that helps!

So if they have a native app that opens a webview, I think the strategy would be:

1. Get the Dynamic Link via the native FDL library

2. Grab the link parameter just like they would if they were any other native app

3. Go ahead and open whatever they want to within their webview. Maybe that's exactly the content of their link parameter, but it might be something else. That's completely up to them.

It should be fairly straightforward. Although if they were looking for some kind of "automagically turn a FDL into a web view location" solution, I don't think we can help.
