Firebase SQL Connect for Swift

(formerly called Firebase Data Connect)

Connect your Swift & SwiftUI apps directly to a managed Google CloudSQL (PostgreSQL) database.

This repository contains the official open-source Swift SDK for Firebase SQL Connect, a service that lets you build modern, data-driven applications on Apple platforms (iOS, macOS, etc.) with the power and scalability of a SQL database.

This SDK is perfect for those:

• Who need a robust SQL database for their app but want to avoid writing and managing a separate backend.
• Looking for a type-safe, async-first library to integrate a PostgreSQL database into their applications.
• Require realtime queries integrated with Swift's Observation framework and Offline access to query results.

✨ Why Use Firebase SQL Connect?

• Use power of SQL: Get the power of a managed PostgreSQL database without the hassle of managing servers. Focus on your app's frontend experience.
• Type-Safe & Modern Swift: Interact with your database using a strongly-typed, auto-generated Swift SDK. It's built with modern async/await for clean, concurrent code.
• Realtime:** Get automatic realtime updates to your Queries.
• Offline Cache: Access your query results even when offline.
• Built for SwiftUI: @Observable Queries automatically update your SwiftUI views when data changes, making it incredibly simple to build reactive UIs.
• Full CRUD Operations: Define your data models and operations using GraphQL, and Data Connect generates the Swift code to query, insert, update, and delete data.
• Local Emulator: Develop and test your entire application locally with the FDC emulator for a fast and efficient development cycle.
