Developer Setup

Dependencies

To set up a development environment to build the sample from source, you must have the following installed:

  • Node.js (>= 6.0.0)
  • npm (should be included with Node.js)

Download the sample application source and its dependencies with:

git clone https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-nodejs
cd quickstart-nodejs/auth-sessions
npm install

Configuring the app

Create your project in the Firebase Console.

Add Firebase to your app.

Enable the Google and Email/Password sign-in providers in the Authentication > SIGN-IN METHOD tab.

In the root folder ./auth-sessions, create a config.js file:

const config = {
  apiKey: "...",
  authDomain: "...",
  databaseURL: "...",
  storageBucket: "...",
  messagingSenderId: "..."
};
module.exports = config;

Copy and paste the Web snippet code configuration found in the console to the config.js file. You can find the snippet by clicking the "Web setup" button in the Firebase Console Authentication page.

Ensure the application authorized domain is also whitelisted. localhost should already be set as an authorized OAuth domain.

Since the application is using the Firebase Admin SDK, service account credentials will be required. Learn more on how to add the Firebase Admin SDK to your server.

After you generate a new private key, save it in the root folder ./auth-sessions as serviceAccountKeys.json. Make sure to keep these credentials secret and never expose them in public.

Building Sample app

To build and run the sample app, run:

npm run demo

This will launch a local server using port 3000. To access the app, go to http://localhost:3000/
