DESCRIPTION

This module provides a Perl class to generate auth tokens for http://www.firebase.com. See https://www.firebase.com/docs/security/custom-login.html for details on the spec.

METHODS

new

Constructor.

data

Optional. If you don't specify this, then you need to specify it when you call create_token(). This should be a hash reference of all the data you want to pass for user data. This data will be available as the auth object in Firebase's security rules. If you do specify it, then it must have a uid key that contain's the users unique user id, which must be a non-null string that is no longer than 256 characters.

secret

Required. The api secret token provided by firebase.com.

admin

Defaults to \0. If set to \1 (a reference to zero or one) then full access will be granted for this token.

debug

Defaults to \0. If set to \1 (a reference to zero or one) then verbose error messages will be returned from service calls.

NOTE: To access debug info, call debug on the Firebase object after making a request.

expires

An epoch date. Defaults to expiring 24 hours from the issued date.

not_before

An epoch date. The opposite of expires. Defaults to now. The token will not be valid until after this date.

Defaults to 0.

token_separator

Defaults to .

urlbase64_encode

URL base-64 encodes a string, and then does some minor translation on it to make it compatible with Firebase.

create_token

Generates a signed token. This is probably the only method you'll ever need to call besides the constructor.

data

If specified it must have a uid key that contain's the users unique user id, which must be a non-null string that is no longer than 256 characters.

create_claims

Generates a list of claims based upon the options provided to the constructor.

data

Required. A hash reference of user data you wish to pass to the service. It must have a uid key that contain's the users unique user id, which must be a non-null string that is no longer than 256 characters.
