Web Firebase Auth: Force signout without waiting for onAuthStateChanged?

[Stephen Evans]

Hello,  I have a "reset" route which completely removes the state of my app from the user's browser.  I'd like it to be more-or less instant.  

Currently though, when they navigate to that route, I first have to initialize firebase then wait for onAuthStateChanged to tell me if a user was logged in, and if so log them out.  Then finally I can clear my app's locally stored data.

Is there a cross-browser safe way to immediately turf all firebase auth persistence without waiting, assuming firebase hasn't even been initialised yet?

Thanks!

Auth is writing to local storage; you could modify local storage directly without using the SDK.

Thanks for the help.

On Chrome it seems to be using indexDB.  I worry that it depends on the browser capabilities that it detects, and so it might not be safe unless I really knew all the possibilities.  Would be nice if there was a "static" api method for clearing auth persistence that didn't require firebase to be initialised.
