Cached Firebase

Cache Firebase data for offline storage.

• Uses localForage for performance (non-blocking async localStorage)
• Uses Promises

var CachedRef = require('cached-firebase');
 
var url = 'https://xxxx.firebaseio.com/your/url';
 
var ref = new CachedRef(url,{
    timeout: 60000 // timeout before promise rejects
    value: null // initial value
    key: '...' // key in localStorage
})
 
ref.isReady // loaded from localForage?
ref.isReady.then(function(cachedValue){ ... });
 
ref.isLoaded // loaded from Firebase?
ref.loaded.then(function(firebaseValue){ ... });
 
ref.value; // current value
ref.set(); // saves current value
 
CachedRef.TIMEOUT = 60000; // default timeout

• Documentation
• Export CommonJS to global build (webpack)
• Check if bower installation works
