Firebase engineer here. For things like chron jobs / emails / any logging you want to do, you can run a node server that uses the javascript SDK. That lets you do things like, "any time a user writes to this location, send an email with the contents of the data".
You can also observe arbitrary data changes and log any info that is relevant to you.
As for passwords, we have a few details here at the bottom of the page here: https://www.firebase.com/docs/security-quickstart.html https://www.firebase.com/docs/security-quickstart.html
The short answer is that we use bcrypt for password storage.
Hope that helps!
- don_draper 13y agoA node server that I run on my server accesses Firebase through the SDK, right?
- gsoltis 13y agoCorrect. There's a quickstart guide for using the Node SDK here: https://www.firebase.com/docs/nodejs-quickstart.html https://www.firebase.com/docs/nodejs-quickstart.html You can also use the REST API (https://www.firebase.com/docs/rest-api-quickstart.html https://www.firebase.com/docs/rest-api-quickstart.html) to interact with Firebase from any platform.
