shinyonfire / sof-auth-example Goto Github PK

Hello Andy, thank you for sharing this example, very interesting solution, i am still learning about it. I have reproduced here and it worked, but only after a modification:
In ui.r (lines 7 and 8) i a had to change the 5.7.0 version (i guess)
tags$script(src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.7.0/firebase-app.js"),
tags$script(src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.7.0/firebase-auth.js"),

to 5.8.4 -

tags$script(src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.8.4/firebase-app.js"),
tags$script(src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.8.4/firebase-auth.js"),

As i was not getting any response when i clicked the sign in button. My question is, do i have to be looking every day for changes in this version, made by firebase team? In order to keep these links updated?

Hi, I tried to use this and everything work fine except once clicked on login button nothing happen, ideally DataTable should appears as per you logic. Also use absolute path for each configs files but no luck..
Can you please suggest how i resolve this problem.

Hi Andy,

Nice work on this! Looks like a promising auth option for shiny.

One thing I noticed was that the apiKey, authDomain and projectId are visible to anyone who looks at the sof-auth.js script in the source files of the app's base directory.

I'm not a javascript expert but I'm guessing there must be a way of not exposing this information to the client?

I saw you placed a security warning on the repo. Could you elaborate about the security risk? I assumed that as long as you use mTLS and use proper security rules with your Firebase project, then there shouldn’t be a security problem.
