Firebase security rules testing

There is currently no official testing framework for firebase storage security rules.

There is how ever the Firebase Rules API which does provide unit testing functionality. The simulator in the firebase console makes use of this api.

This repository is an attempt at a client for this api and since the api works for both Firestore and Firebase Storage you will be able to test both types of security rules with this client.

I also opened a feature request with firebase, so maybe they will realease something like this pretty soon with official support.

Install

npm i firebase-security-testing

Setup

In order for this package to work you will have to set the FIREBASE_TOKEN environment variable. You can obtain the token with:

firebase login:ci

Examples

const { RuleTestSuite, validateRuleSuite } = require('firebase-security-testing');

// Initialise the rule test suite
var storageRules = new RuleTestSuite({
	rulePath: 'storage.rules', // path to your rules file
	project: '<project-name>', // your project name
	description: 'storage rules' // optional for logging of results
});

// add a test case
storageRules.test('<description>'/* description for logging */, {
	path: '/b/<bucket-name>/o/path/to/resource',
	method: 'get',
	auth: {
		uid: '...',
		token: {
			'...': '...'
		}
	}
}).shouldSucceed(); // this test case should succeed

// ad another test case
storageRules.test('<description>'/* description for logging */, {
	path: '/b/<bucket-name>/o/path/to/resource',
	method: 'create'
}).shouldFail(); // this test case should fail

// validate the tests
validateRuleSuite(storageRules, { logging: true, exitOnFailure: true });

The exitOnFailure option defaults to true.

Test case options

The options for the test cases ("as far as i can tell") are the ones listed in the documentation for firestore request, firestore resource, storage request, storage resource
