FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Firebase Token Generator - PHP
WARNING: This token generator is compatible with versions 1.x.x and 2.x.x of the Firebase SDK. If you are using the 3.x.x SDK, please refer to the documentation here.
Firebase Custom Login gives you complete control over user authentication by allowing you to authenticate users with secure JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). The auth payload stored in those tokens is available for use in your Firebase security rules. This is a token generator library for PHP which allows you to easily create those JWTs.
Dependencies
The Firebase PHP token generator library depends on PHP-JWT.
A Note About Security
IMPORTANT: Because token generation requires your Firebase Secret, you should only generate tokens on trusted servers. Never embed your Firebase Secret directly into your application and never share your Firebase Secret with a connected client.
Installation
Using composer:
Generating Tokens
To generate tokens, you'll need your Firebase Secret which you can find by entering your Firebase URL into a browser and clicking the "Secrets" tab on the left-hand navigation menu.
Once you've downloaded the library and grabbed your Firebase Secret, you can generate a token with this snippet of PHP code:
The payload passed to setData() is made available for use within your
security rules via the auth variable.
This is how you pass trusted authentication details (e.g. the client's user ID)
to your Firebase security rules. The payload can contain any data of your
choosing, however it must contain a "uid" key, which must be a string of less
than 256 characters. The generated token must be less than 1024 characters in
total.
Token Options
Token options can be set to modify how Firebase treats the token. Available options are:
-
expires (number or DateTime) - A timestamp (as number of seconds since the epoch) or a
DateTimedenoting the time after which this token should no longer be valid. -
notBefore (number or DateTime) - A timestamp (as number of seconds since the epoch) or a
DateTimedenoting the time before which this token should be rejected by the server. -
admin (boolean) - Set to
Trueif you want to disable all security rules for this client. This will provide the client with read and write access to your entire Firebase database. - debug (boolean) - Set to
Trueto enable debug output from your security rules. You should generally not leave this set toTruein production (as it slows down the rules implementation and gives your users visibility into your rules), but it can be helpful for debugging.
Here is an example of how to set options:
