# Firebase Search Project

A Node.js-based tool to search for exact matches in a Firebase Firestore collection. The project uses environment variables to securely manage Firebase credentials, allowing users to easily clone, configure, and run search queries. Ideal for quick integration and open-source deployment.

## Introduction

This project provides a straightforward way to search data in Firebase Firestore using Node.js. It is designed for developers who need a quick and easy method to perform exact match searches on their Firestore collections.

## Features

- Search for exact matches in a Firestore collection.
- Securely manage Firebase credentials using environment variables.
- Easy setup and deployment.

## Prerequisites

- Node.js installed on your machine
- Firebase project with Firestore enabled

## Setup

1. **Clone the repository:**
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/your-username/firebase-search.git
   cd firebase-search

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Set up environment variables:

   Create a .env file in the root directory and add your Firebase credentials:

   touch .env

   Add the following content to the .env file:

   FIREBASE_API_KEY=your_firebase_api_key
   FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=your_firebase_auth_domain
   FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID=your_firebase_project_id
   FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET=your_firebase_storage_bucket
   FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID=your_firebase_messaging_sender_id
   FIREBASE_APP_ID=your_firebase_app_id

   Replace the placeholders with your actual Firebase project credentials.

4. Run the search:

   node searchFirestore.js

   This will search the Firestore collection ActionsTemplates for documents with the title "Purchase and play game for 2 hours" and print the results.

Usage

• To modify the search term: Edit the searchExactTitle function inside searchFirestore.js to query other fields or collections.
• To integrate into other projects: This script can be extended or integrated into larger Node.js applications requiring Firestore queries.
