DEPRECATED

This repo is no longer supported. The firebase-admin package on npm is now published by Google as of v4; the code here has nothing to do with firebase-admin@4 and no longer works.

firebase-admin

Programmatically instantiate and modify Firebase instances.

Build Status

Why?

For automated testing, mostly.

Install

npm install --save firebase-admin

Use

var FirebaseAccount = require('firebase-admin');
var Firebase = require('firebase');

var account = new FirebaseAccount(process.env.FIREBASE_ADMIN_TOKEN);
account.createDatabase('new-instance-name')
.then(function(instance) {
  var fb = new Firebase(instance.toString());
})
.catch(function(err) {
  console.error('Oops, error creating instance:', err);
});

Documentation

There's JSDoc-generated API documentation.

Develop

git clone https://github.com/casetext/firebase-admin
cd firebase-admin
npm install
npm test

Please jshint. That is all.

Caveats

  • This package uses Firebase's own APIs. You can't do anything with it you can't already do in the admin tools and Forge.
  • Do not abuse the Firebase service. It's amazing and the people who work there are amazing.

I 💓 Firebase

Big whoop, wanna fight about it?
