Managing google-services files in projects with several possible package names

In the plugin, you can add multiple google-service.json files to your project, which will be selected based on the package name set during the build.

If you want to switch between multiple Firebase projects (each with its own google-services.json configuration file), follow these steps:

1. Create a ZIP archive. Place each google-services.json file into a .zip archive named google-services.zip.

2. Then, when adding this .zip file to the project, set the action to Deploy to Target Directory and specify the target directory as google-services/${package_name}.

For example, if the project package name is com.pushwoosh.demo, the target directory will be google-services/com.pushwoosh.demo.

3. Next, during the project build, specify the corresponding package name

Resolving conflicts between multiple plugins depending on FirebaseMessagingService

Android does not automatically resolve such conflicts, so it must be done manually. Since each plugin has its own logic, we cannot provide universal code that works for all possible plugins.

Here's how to address conflicts:

1. Write a router class in Java to handle the conflict. This class must be named FirebaseMessagingRouterService.

Refer to the guide for an example: Using Pushwoosh SDK with other FCM services.

2. Name the Class File. The file containing this class must be named FirebaseMessagingRouterService.java.

3. Place this file into a .zip archive named FirebaseMessagingRouterService.zip.

4. Add this archive to the resources of your Outsystems project.

5. Set the action to Deploy to Target Directory, and specify the target directory as FirebaseMessagingRouterService.
