# :zap: Ionic Angular Authentication

* Ionic app to authenticate users so they can access and post messages to a chat board.
* Another great tutorial from [Simon Grimm 'Building an Ionic Firebase Chat with Authentication'](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNleEVG9_yA&t=94s). Updated to latest Angular and Firebase (compat) versions.

## :books: General info

* Firebase Firestore Authentication used to create sign in and log in functions

## :camera: Screenshots

![screenshot](./img/test.png)

## :signal_strength: Technologies

* [Ionic v6](https://ionicframework.com/)
* [Ionic/angular v6](https://ionicframework.com/)
* [Angular v15](https://angular.io/)
* [Firebase v9](https://firebase.google.com/) backend database and authentication APIs

## :floppy_disk: Setup

* Create a Firebase project and add email authentication
* Add Firebase config object to environment variables
* `npm` i to install dependencies
* `ionic serve` to start the server on _localhost://8100

## :computer: Code Examples

* extract from `chat.page.html` by [Simon Grimm](https://devdactic.com/) showing ternery expressions to change chat offset and scss class depending on user

```html



{{ message.fromName }}

{{ message.msg }}



{{ message.createdAt?.toMillis().toString() | date:'short' }}




```

## :cool: Features

* Use of ternery expressions to change chat box color and horizontal offset depending on which user chat item is shown

## :clipboard: Status & To-do list

* Status: Complete and working. Problem with dev. console persisting user login id which stops chat from showing user details correctly
* To-do: Fix errors. Find out how to show more than one user email in chat with email username - problem is likely due to storing of user data even after logging out and logging in as a different user.
