**NOTE:** This repository is part of [Google Cloud PHP](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-php). Any support requests, bug reports, or development contributions should be directed to that project.

A NoSQL document database built for automatic scaling, high performance, and ease of application development. While the Cloud Firestore interface has many of the same features as traditional databases, as a NoSQL database it differs from them in the way it describes relationships between data objects.

### Installation

[](#installation)

To begin, install the preferred dependency manager for PHP, [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).

Now install this component:

```
$ composer require google/cloud-firestore
```

This component requires the gRPC extension. Please see our [gRPC installation guide](https://cloud.google.com/php/grpc)for more information on how to configure the extension.

### Authentication

[](#authentication)

Please see our [Authentication guide](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-php/blob/main/AUTHENTICATION.md) for more information on authenticating your client. Once authenticated, you'll be ready to start making requests.

### Sample

[](#sample)

```
use Google\ApiCore\ApiException;
use Google\Cloud\Firestore\V1\Client\FirestoreClient;
use Google\Cloud\Firestore\V1\Document;
use Google\Cloud\Firestore\V1\GetDocumentRequest;

// Create a client.
$firestoreClient = new FirestoreClient();

// Prepare the request message.
$request = (new GetDocumentRequest())
    ->setName($name);

// Call the API and handle any network failures.
try {
    /** @var Document $response */
    $response = $firestoreClient->getDocument($request);
    printf('Response data: %s' . PHP_EOL, $response->serializeToJsonString());
} catch (ApiException $ex) {
    printf('Call failed with message: %s' . PHP_EOL, $ex->getMessage());
}
```
