My answer is not angular related but I searched quiet a bit to find out how to do it using Polymer and Polymerfire so I add this answer to help people get it done faster than i did.
I had to add a separate node to db as Frank van Puffelen mentioned.
Imports:
<link rel="import" href="../bower_components/polymerfire/firebase-app.html">
<link rel="import" href="../bower_components/polymerfire/firebase-auth.html">
<link rel="import" href="../bower_components/polymerfire/firebase-document.html">
Then place anywhere in your app a <firebase-app>
component:
<firebase-app
name="yourAppName"
api-key= "{{yourApi}}"
auth-domain= "{{yourAuthDomain}}"
database-url= "{{yourDbUrl}}"
>
</firebase-app>
After that you will need to use <firebase-auth>
and <firebase-document>
:
Template :
<firebase-auth
id="auth"
app-name="yourAppName"
signed-in="{{signedIn}}"
user="{{user}}">
</firebase-auth>
<firebase-document
id="document"
app-name="yourAppName"
path="{{usersPath}}" // e.g "/users"
data="{{userDocument}}">
</firebase-document>
Script:
this._register = function(){
var formValid = this.querySelector('#register-form').validate();
var auth = this.querySelector('#auth');
if(formValid && this.passWordsIdentic){
//The actual registration
auth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(this.email, this.password).then(function(user){
console.log('auth user registration succes');
//Example values
this.userDocument.uid = user.uid;
this.userDocument.email = user.email;
this.userDocument.firstName = this.firstName;
this.userDocument.lastName = this.lastName;
this.userDocument.userName = this.userName;
this.$.document.save(this.usersPath).then(() => {
console.log("custom user registration succes");
this.$.document.reset();
});
}.bind(this)).catch(function(error) {
var errorCode = error.code;
var errorMessage = error.message;
console.log('error: ', errorCode);
);
}
}
And that's it, you may want to take a look at this excellent google codelab which is a good introduction into using firebase with polymer.
