How to add username with email and password in Firebase?

Question

I\'m using Firebase and I\'m trying to add a username to the database with the email and password.

Answer 1

You need to create that database users child node yourself ;-)

The createUserWithEmailAndPassword function only creates a new user in Firebase authentication service. The database itself isn't changed at all as a result.

To add this new user to the database as well, try:

firebase.database().ref("users").child(user.uid).set(...)
