Utility for importing push subscriptions to Firebase project

Description

Utility firebase_import_subs is a tool for importing Web Push subscriptions of a third-party push service into a Firebase project.

How does it work?

1. A CSV file is sent as the input data. It contains fields for subsequent matching during the import process and subscription data.
2. A new CSV file is sent as the output data. All data from the source file is saved in the file, but also the column firebase_push_token is added.

How to do a request?

• The Altcraft platform user transfers the CSV file with subscriptions to the platform administrator.
• You need a service account JSON file. You can get it in the Firebase console: https://firebase.google.com. Go to the settings of the project into which you want to import subscriptions: "Project Settings" → "Service accounts". Go to the "Admin SDK configuration snippet" section and click "Generate new private key" to download the JSON file.

• Go to the directory where the Altcraft platform is installed. By default, it is /opt/MarketingPlatform/

cd /opt/MarketingPlatform/

• Use the utility:

ak/bin/firebase_import_subs --in ~/test_firebase_import/in.csv --out ~/test_firebase_import/out.csv --cred_json ~/test_firebase_import/cred.json --auth_field_name web_auth --p256_field_name web_p256 --endpoint_field_name identifier --publ_vapid_key BDkO8iue5By4UcLUk5SCL0LLtDl9RWvSyqr0WOIjiXQTJmwH0yHxcrqidZ-PyJ9QwksTBHkh9wx88YK4xnn17_Y

All errors that happened when you start the utility are recorded in the log file.

• If you've done everything right, the new out.csv contains:
  1. the same data that the initial file contains
  2. column firebase_push_token.

• Send the resulting csv file to the platform user.
