Laravel RealTime CRUD Using Google Firebase
In this tutorial, I am going to show you the real-time CRUD using Google Firebase. Let’s follow these steps:
Table of Contents
- Create a Firebase Project
- Create a Laravel Project
- Register View Route
- Configure Firebase Setting
- Add a Blade File
- Run and Test
Step 1 : Create a Firebase Project
Let’s first create a firebase project and take firebase credentials. Go to
https://firebase.google.com/ and create a project.

Enter a project name and click “Create project” button.

Our firebase project has been created. Now click “Continue” button. On the Project Overview page, you will see like this:

From this page, select Web. Then you will see a popup window with the firebase web config credentials.

We have successfully created a Firebase project and got the necessary credentials.
Step 2 : Create a Laravel Project
Go to your project directory using CMD and run this command to create a Laravel project:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravelproject
Step 3 : Register View Route
Go to routes >> web.php and register this route:
<?php
Route::view('customers', 'customers');
Step 4 : Configure Firebase Setting
Now, we are configuring google firebase setting in our laravel application. so, open config/services.php
file and set following configuration in this file.
'firebase' => [
'api_key' => 'api_key', // Only used for JS integration
'auth_domain' => 'auth_domain', // Only used for JS integration
'database_url' => 'https://database_url.com/',
'storage_bucket' => '', // Only used for JS integration
],
Step 5 : Add a Blade File
Navigate to resources >> views directory and create a file named “customers.blade.php”. Then open the file and paste this code:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<!-- Required meta tags -->
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<!-- Bootstrap CSS -->

In this file, I have created a simple CURD form using Bootstrap 4. At the end of the file, you will get the Firebase JavaScript CURD code. It’s easy to understand.
Step 6 : Run and Test
Run the laravel project by typing:
php artisan serve
Now visit the route(http://localhost:8000/customers
) to see the form. You can start testing by adding data.

Here’s the Firebase database’s screenshot:

For an unordered list, you can add a dash -, like so:
- The start of my list
