I am using Firebase Realtime Database for a project I am developing, I want the client to be able to get updates in realtime using a WebSocket connection with the server. I have a simple backend in FastAPI.
I know how to create a websocket on my FastAPI server:
@app.websocket("/ws")
async def websocket_endpoint(websocket: WebSocket):
await websocket.accept()
while True:
data = await websocket.receive_text()
await websocket.send_text(f"Message text was: {data}")
And I know how to get the updates on my database (https://stackoverflow.com/a/53020497/1339231):
def listener(event):
print(event.event_type) # can be 'put' or 'patch'
print(event.path) # relative to the reference, it seems
print(event.data) # new data at /reference/event.path. None if deleted
firebase_admin.db.reference('my/data/path').listen(listener)
But I do not know how to connect these two things. Any help would be appreciated
