Hi! I'm trying to write on real time database, but every time I try it throws that error

  }
}

My piece of code:

import {firebase} from '@react-native-firebase/database';
...
const writeDatabase = () => {
    firebase.database().ref('chats').set({test: "testing"})
}

(just edit the App.js to try out whatever function you want after you run that)
