Firebase management

Warning: the sections for bulk importing and deleting users require running and most likely understanding some code.

Importing Users

NOTE: this will not create accounts with known passwords. To activate, each account must reset their password by email.

To add a small number of users or to add with known passwords, see the Creating a Login section of the Admin guide. To add many at a time, continue below.

---

The process below just follows firebase's guide here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli/auth

To import accounts to firebase, follow the steps below:

1. Get your desired members to import by clicking Download .csv at the footer of the Admin members table (aumt.co.nz/admin/members)

2. Create a new .csv to firebase's specification. Below is an R script that reads in the downloaded members and writes a new csv importable by firebase. It uses the md5 algorithm for passwords.

library(digest)
member.df <- read.csv('2020_s1_paidmembers.csv')

hashes = rep(digest('aumuaythai2348', algo='md5',serialize = F), nrow(member.df))
import.df = data.frame(key=member.df$key,
                       email=member.df$email,
                       email.verified=rep(F,nrow(member.df)),
                       pass.hash=hashes,
                       pass.salt=NA,
                       name=paste(member.df$firstName, member.df$lastName),
                       photo.url=NA,
                       googleId=NA,
                       Google.Email=NA,
                       Google.Display.Name=NA,
                       Google.Photo.URL=NA,
                       Facebook.ID=NA,
                       Facebook.Email=NA,
                       Facebook.Display.Name=NA,
                       Facebook.Photo.URL=NA,
                       Twitter.ID=NA,
                       Twitter.Email=NA,
                       Twitter.Display.Name=NA,
                       Twitter.Photo.URL=NA,
                       GitHub.ID=NA,
                       GitHub.Email=NA,
                       GitHub.Display.Name=NA,
                       GitHub.Photo.URL=NA,
                       User.Creation.Time=NA,
                       Last.Sign.In.Time=NA,
                       Phone.Number=NA
)
write.table(import.df, sep=',', 'firebase-import.csv', row.names=F, col.names = F, na='')

3. Have the firebase cli installed https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli#setup_update_cli

4. Have the website repo set up https://github.com/aumuaythai/aumt-website-frontend

5. From the project root directory, import your newly created firebase users csv. For the example above, that looks like:

firebase auth:import firebase-import.csv --hash-algo=MD5 --rounds=4

Deleting Users in Firebase

To delete one at a time, see the Deleting a User section of the Admin guide.

To delete many users, see the guide below. You must initialise the firebase admin sdk in the repo's root directory. The package is already installed as a dev dependency of the aumt repo. Uncomment the section of admin-scripts.js corresponding to deleting users and replace the array of dummy uids with the desired ones.

run the script node admin-scripts.js

Documentation can be found here:

https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/admin/manage-users#delete_multiple_users

Changing a member's email in Firebase

To change a member's email you must change it in both on the AUMT website aumt.co.nz/admin/members and via the firebase admin sdk.

See notes for using the admin sdk above, and use the commented out section of admin-scripts.js corresponding to changing emails.

run the script node admin-scripts.js

Documentation can be found here:
