How can I get the user authentication data?

[francesco98]

I can easily read or write data, but what about user authentication data?

Can you expand on what you mean by user authentication data?

This client is for basic Firebase interactions. There are a number of pull requests to improve this but this repo isn't maintained.

@francesco98 could you please elaborate?

I think he might be asking what I'm about to ask.

Can you validate a JWT token from the javascript client with this project? People who were using gitkit for authentication are now going to be using Firebase authentication so this should come up a lot.

Basically a php variation of the functionality provided currently in the Java and Node SDKs.

https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/server#verify_id_tokens

String idToken;  // Get the user's ID token from the client app

FirebaseAuth.getInstance().verifyIdToken(idToken)
    .addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<FirebaseToken>() {
        @Override
        public void onSuccess(FirebaseToken decodedToken) {
          String uid = decodedToken.getUid();
          // ...
        }
});
