Before setting up dependencies, writing data models, or configuring security rules, you MUST always identify the Firestore instance edition.
Run the following command to list current Firestore databases: bash npx -y firebase-tools@latest firestore:databases:list
firebase-tools@latest firestore:databases:get <database-id>
prefer to create a new instance.
edition is STANDARD, follow the guides underreferences/standard/.
edition is ENTERPRISE or native mode, follow the guidesunder references/enterprise/.
If no databases exist or the user requests a new one, default to provisioning an Enterprise edition database and ask the user what location to use. Run npx -y firebase-tools@latest firestore:locations to get the list of options. Suggest colocating with other resources if applicable.
Once the location is determined, create the database: bash npx -y firebase-tools@latest firestore:databases:create <database-id> --edition="enterprise" --location="<selected-location>"
Proceed with using the guides under references/enterprise/.
Based on the identified or created instance edition, open and read the corresponding reference guides:
