The Firebase Realtime Database is a cloud-hosted database. Data is stored as JSON and synchronized in realtime to every connected client.

GEval app has particular format of database. If you wish to change the database as per your requirement please change the app code accordingly.

We need not worry about Results and users child in root of database as they are created automatically.

The 'admins' and 'tests' child in root are to be added manually in this format.

Creating Tests

Add your questions, options and Time in this database child.You can easily do so using Import JSON feature of firebase. Using any online editor edit this JSON question template and import it to your test.

Adding Admins

Create a child admins in root and add child with name= "user-id" which can be seen from authentication tab in firebase console and Value=true.

Rules
