Cloud Firestore: Does this plugin use firebase offline-persistence by default?

[folsze]

Afaik firebase has the option to enable offline-persistence which caches requests (& queries afaik) to collections on the client.

Does this plugin make use of this by default automatically? I did not find any options to setup offline persistence but I do want to use it.

I saw it here, only the clearPersistence method:

https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-firebase/tree/main/packages/firestore#clearpersistence

So I assume this does support it. If it does I will consider in the future replacing my whole firebase access with this plugin instead of angular/fire. That's why I am asking before going in the direction of that change.

Yes, this plugin supports offline persistence. From the Firebase documentation:

For Android and Apple platforms, offline persistence is enabled by default. For the web, offline persistence is disabled by default. To enable persistence, call the enablePersistence method.

For the web, there is no such enablePersistence method yet. Feel free to create a feature request for it.
