how to get firebase.database.Reference full path

Question

consider

var adaRef = firebase.database().ref(\"users/ada\");

How can I get the full path of ref ? that is \"users/ada\" ?

Answer 1

Following on Frank's answer I extended firebase as follows:

firebase.database.Reference.prototype.fullkey = function() {
    return this.toString().substring(this.root.toString().length-1);
}

then you can do adaRef.fullkey() // returns /users/ada

(I would like to call this 'path' but that seems to be reserved by FB)
