I'm trying to build a web app using AngularJS and Firebase that sends an email to two users that match on certain parameters. The users submit their information first and if there is a match with another person in the database, I want to send an email to both those people. For example, if two people, A and B both have the age of 25, I would like to send A and B an email with certain information. Is this possible using Firebase?
If you are NOT running a server
Yes
You could achieve it by using a service like Zapier.
You could create a zap linking FireBase and an e-mail service like Mandrill.
A Zap combines triggers and actions — whenever the trigger event occurs, Zapier automatically completes the action for you!
When there is a match, update a special key in your FireBase database.
As Zapier is listening to updates of that particular key, it will react by sending your e-mails via Mandrill.
March 2017 UPDATE
New tools have now been added to Firebase to trigger database event handlers:
- database events triggers: https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/database-events
- cloud functions for FireBase: https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/functions-and-firebase
- using cloud functions to send e-mails through sendGrid: https://cloud.google.com/functions/docs/tutorials/sendgrid
If you are running a server
Your server can easily check the values in FireBase and send e-mails accordingly. That would then be a
Yes, of course :)
