firebase-token-generator on parse cloudcode

[Evans Attafuah]

Hello,

Is there an easy way to generate firebase tokens using parse's cloudcode? 

[Michael Lehenbauer]

Great question!  We have a JavaScript token generator, so it definitely seems like it should be possible but I'm not sure exactly what the limits of the parse runtime environment is.  You could try just copy/pasting the standalone JS version of our token generator into parse cloud code and see what happens: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-token-generator-node/blob/master/dist/firebase-token-generator.js  In theory, that should create a FirebaseTokenGenerator global that you can use as shown here.  If it doesn't work, let us know what you run into.  It should be possible to find a solution.

Good luck!

Hello Micheal,

Thanks for this. I looked at it earlier and saw some window declarations in the code so I  thought it was just for web browsers because cloud code doesn't have a window environment. 

But I will try implementation and let you know.

Thanks.

Yeah, I'm honestly not sure if it'll work or not.  The raw source is here and isn't very complicated (a lot of the code is error validation and stuff).  We compile it for both node.js and the browser (as well as a "debug" version that's not minified, but it has a lot of extra code): https://github.com/firebase/firebase-token-generator-node/blob/master/dist/

I'm sure it's possible to get it working, but I'm not sure what the least painful route will be.  If you run into specific issues, let us know.  We may be able to help.

Good luck!

Hello Micheal,

I tried it and got this error " TypeError: object is not a function" and am suspecting that the file is not being exported as a module like so exports.FirebaseTokenGenerator = FirebaseTokenGenerator;

can you help me resolve this?.

ok so I tried the node distribution and it works like magic. :)

https://github.com/firebase/firebase-token-generator-node/blob/master/dist/firebase-token-generator-node.js

I got back this,

Thanks.

Hi Evans,

I'm glad to hear it worked!

A word of warning: you should never, ever post authentication tokens in public forums like this. You should change your Firebase app's secret immediately to revoke the token you just posted.

Thanks for the tip.
