Re: [Firebase] remove example

[Andrew Lee]

Awesome! Glad you got it working.

Do you have specific ideas for docs tweaks we should make?

Hi,

as a Firebase noob I had some trouble getting 'remove' (i.e. deleting data) to work.

The documentation was not as explicit as (at least I) needed it (there is 'writing data' and 'reading data' topic, but none on remove), so I took the chat example and created a little list manager as a trivial example.

It's here:

To show off the awesome real time console ('forge') I made a little flic about it. :-)

As far as I can tell, Firebase rocks!

Best,

Thanks Dirk! We'll improve this part.

I would either add a paragraph in the 'writing data' section with a small example of remove:

 

        ref.child(id).once('value', function(snapshot) {

            snapshot.ref().remove();

          });

(if this is the proper way to do it).

Maybe it's even worth opening a new page 'deleting data' for it. Come to think of it, a minimal 'CRUDL' example would be cool.
Maybe I give it a whirl as a learning experience - although I guess it's a matter of minutes for one of you experienced guys :-).

PS Btw, I forgot to mention that one of the Gists is broken: https://gist.github.com/anantn/4325082 , the second last example on this page: https://www.firebase.com/docs/examples.html

Of course it had to be the one with the remove operation in it. :-)
