13. let’s code, Yarr!

14. Play Around: CRUD
Create
Read
Update
Delete

15. Play Around: CRUD
CRUD in Firebase:
- flexible (as many ways as you can imagine)
- one method and a lot of results

16. Play Around: Create
Create:
- push();
- set();

17. Play Around: Create
push();
- soft insert: just adds a new object

18. Play Around: Create
before push(); after push();

19. Play Around: Create
unique ids

20. Play Around: Create
set();
- strong: replace all the existing data

21. Play Around: Create
before set(); after set();

22. Play Around: Create
push();
- adds new object
- assigns unique Id
set();
- replace referenced data by incoming
object
- doesn’t assign unique Id

23. Play Around: Events
Events:
- on/once ‘value’
- on/once ‘child_added’
- on/once ‘child_removed’
- on/once ‘child_moved’

24. Play Around: Data View
Data View:
- data snapshot
- val();
- exists()
- child();
- parent();
- hasChild();
- hasChildren();
- isNumbers();
- isString();
- isBoolean();
- isNumber();
- getPriority();

25. Play Around: Read
Read:
- on.(‘value’);
- on.(child_added’);
- on.(child_removed’);
- on.(‘child_changed’);
- on.(‘child_moved’);

26. Play Around: Read
on.(‘value’)

27. Play Around: Read
on.(‘value’)

28. Play Around: Read
on.(‘child_added’)
<= show object key

29. Play Around: Update
Update:
- update();
- set();

30. Play Around: Update
update();
new field

31. Play Around: Delete
Delete:
- remove();

32. Play Around: Delete
remove();

33. Play Around: Search
Search Process:
- no strong search queries
- no real search engine
Search Methods:
- on/once(‘value’)
- orderByChild(), orderByKey(), orderByValue(), orderByPriority()
- startAt(), endAt(), equalTo()
- limit(), limitToLast(), limitToFirst()
- ref()

34. Play Around: Search
Source Database:

35. Play Around: Search
orderByChild(); startAt(); endAt();

36. Play Around: Search
limitToFirst(); equalTo();

37. Play Around: Search
equalTo();

38. Play Around: Auth
Pretty-looking and Easy:
- automatic user creation
- service-side authentication
- multiple authentication methods
Authentication Methods:
- email and password (using pre-registered email and password)
- social network-based (Facebook, Google, Twitter, GitHub)
- anonymous (new session = new identifier)
- custom (using pre-generated token)

39. Play Around: Auth
Auth Settings:

40. Play Around: Auth
Create New User:

41. Play Around: Auth
User List:

42. Play Around: Auth

- .validate
- .indexOn
Variables:
- auth
- $location
- now
- root
- data
- new Data
Methods:
- val()
- child()
- parent()
- isNumber()
- isString()
- matches(regex)
Operators:
- +,-,*,/,%
- ===, !==, &&, ||, >, <

44. Play Around: Security

45. Play Around: Security
Security Rules:

46. Play Around: Security
Security Rules & Authentication:
- not authenticated user

47. Play Around: Security
Security Rules & Authentication:
- authenticated user
- read soldiers record

48. Play Around: Security
Security Rules & Authentication:
- authenticated user
- write soldiers record

49. Play Around: Security
- not flexible security rules
- breaks search ability
- complicated in configuration
- force to duplicate data

50. Something Special
onDisconnect():
- set();
- update();
- remove();
- cancel();
ServerValue:
- TIMESTAMP
databaseReference.child(‘.info’)
- authenticated
- connected
- serverTimeOffset

51. Pros and Cons
Pros:
- fast
- auto-scalable
- service-side process handling
- events-oriented
- build-in graphic editor
- easy to jump in
- user-friendly
- understandable API
Cons:
