Roadmap

Current Version (`v2..`)

For updates on issues in the current version, visit the projects page on Github. Issues are assigned to projects as they are opened.

Next Major Version (`3..`)

Breaking Changes

State no longer second argument of functions passed to firebaseConnect and firestoreConnect HOCs - causes issues including not re-rendering since props are not changing

Features

withPropsFromFirebase HOC for data from Firebase straight to props (skipping redux)
Multi-level population
Option to re-render HOCs (firebaseConnect and firestoreConnect) based on auth state change - #367
Possibility of delayed initialization - #70 (more research needed)
Higher Order Components (or HOC factory) that force data to exist before rendering component (maybe AuthRequired or DataLoaded)

Future Versions

Population rules suggestion/generation
Optional Built in Role Management

Previous Versions (`v1..`)

Note, updates of v1.*.* versions have been de-prioritized due to the high adoption of v2.0.0 syntax.

`v1.6.0`

Features

Renaming a file on upload (currently does not work due to HTML 5 File element being read only)

Enhancements/Fixes

Fix TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON (through update of firebase version) - #230

`v1.7.0 - v1..`

Note: Subject to change

Breaking Changes

None Yet Planned

Features

preserveOnLogout config option to preserve certain data on logout (already supported in v2.0.0)
Population of ordered data (already supported in v2.0.0) - #239
childAlias to store populate result on another parameter - #126
waitForPopulate option to allow data to be returned before populated data as in becomes available. As of v1.4.0-rc.2, populate only sets isLoaded to true after all children are loaded, waitForPopulate would make this optional - #121
Config option for populated items updating when changed - #69
Improved support for batching of UI updates as the result of a database "array" loading - #212
Expose whole Firebase instance (warning: Using Firebase instance methods will not dispatch actions or update redux state)
Nested populates #85)
Support for universal environments (i.e. no next function) - #199
Option to clear redux data on firebaseConnect unmount - #55

Enhancements/Fixes
