Accessing Firestore from Elixir
Hello I was wondering if some one could help me with accessing firestore from Elixir. So far the team here has only had to use the firestore data from javascript which has a library and is very straightforward. Elixir seems to have some solutions like the following:
https://github.com/dunyakirkali/firestore.ex
But the docs are not so great and I am not so familiar with firestore. I have been provided with an api key as well as a secret key. I was hoping some one could share how they set up one of the above libraries or maybe how to set up for REST api usage. Basically how do I plug in these keys so I can make queries to firestore. Thanks!!

When I figure this out I promise to post the setup and contribute to the docs of any of the above projects.

Hey all 
I actually ran into this myself recently and wanted to leave this breadcrumb if anyone else runs into this issue.
I created a small example repo here GitHub - TylerSustare/phx_fire · GitHub that uses goth and google_api_firestore hex packages to interract with firestore successfully.
