privacy

• the device address, serial number, and password are passed through the Google account link flow and are not stored as plain user profile data in this repo
• device state cached in Firebase only stores normalized fireplace state for the linked account hash

self-host

• requirements:
  • node 22
  • npm
  • firebase cli
  • google cloud cli
• firebase project currently used by this repo: smartstovepoc-123

basic flow:

firebase login --reauth
gcloud auth login
gcloud config set project smartstovepoc-123
firebase use smartstovepoc-123
cd functions
npm install
node test.js
firebase deploy --only functions

notes

• the Ecoforest device API uses permissive TLS handling because the device endpoint does not present a cert chain Node accepts cleanly in practice
• query behavior is intentionally cache-first, with live status refresh happening in the background

disclaimer

• this project has no affiliation with Ecoforest and is aimed at personal use
