Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
@fireactjs/saas
Advanced tools
fireactjs-saas is the extension package for building SaaS web applications with Firebase, Reactjs and Stripe in a simple and fast approach. It is based on the @fireactjs/core
package for the user authentication features. Its key features on top of the @fireactjs/core
package are:
To experience the package, go to https://saas-demo.fireactjs.com
For documentation of the package, go to https://fireactjs.com/docs/saas-package/
Instructions for installing Fireactjs SaaS packages and creating your Reactjs SaaS application with the Fireactjs packages.
Before installing the Fireactjs SaaS packages, you must set up your Reactjs application with the Fireactjs Core package for user authentication. Read Fireactjs Installation Guide.
The Fireactjs SaaS project comes with two packages: @fireacjts/saas
for the Reactjs front-end and @fireactjs/saas-cloud-functions
for the server-side Firebase Cloud Functions.
In your Reactjs app root folder, use the following command to install the @fireactjs/saas
package:
npm i @fireactjs/saas
In your /functions
folder where your Firebase Cloud Functions are located, use the following command to install the @fireactjs/saas-cloud-functions
package:
npm i @fireactjs/saas-cloud-functions
Fireactjs SaaS integrates with Stripe to handle subscription payments. You must have a Stripe account to enable the integration.
In Stripe, create a product for your SaaS. You can have multiple subscription plans, including both free and paid plans. Create a price plan under your subscription product for each plan. Stripe will create a price_id
for each price plan.
Create a JSON file called plans.json
in the /src
folder and the /functions
folder to describe the subscription plans of your SaaS product as the example shows below. The plans will be shown in the pricing table as the property values in the Reactjs application and will be used for the subscription process in the cloud functions. It’s important that the priceId
property value of each plan matches the plan’s price_id
in Stripe.
[
{
"title": "Free",
"popular": false,
"priceId": "price_1...",
"currency": "$",
"price": 0,
"frequency": "week",
"description": [
"10 users included",
"2 GB of storage",
"Help center access",
"Email support"
]
},
{
"title": "Weekly",
"popular": true,
"priceId": "price_2...",
"currency": "$",
"price": 10,
"frequency": "week",
"description": [
"20 users included",
"10 GB of storage",
"Help center access",
"Priority email support"
]
},
{
"title": "Daily",
"popular": false,
"priceId": "price_3...",
"currency": "$",
"price": 5,
"frequency": "day",
"description": [
"50 users included",
"30 GB of storage",
"Help center access",
"Phone & email support"
]
}
]
For the cloud functions to receive data from Stripe, you will need to create a webhook endpoint with the cloud function webhook URL https://firebse-location-project-id.cloudfunctions.net/fireactjsSaas-stripeWebHook
. Please make sure you replace the domain with your actual Firebase project cloud function domain. Once the webhook is created, you will get an endpoint secret which is needed in the configuration file.
The following Stripe events need to be sent to the endpoint:
customer.subscription.updated
customer.subscription.trial_will_end
customer.subscription.pending_update_expired
customer.subscription.pending_update_applied
customer.subscription.deleted
customer.subscription.created
invoice.created
invoice.deleted
invoice.finalized
invoice.marked_uncollectible
invoice.paid
invoice.payment_action_required
invoice.payment_failed
invoice.payment_succeeded
invoice.sent
invoice.updated
invoice.voided
/src/config.json
FileCreate a file called config.json
in the /src
folder as the example shows below store the configuration settings.
To integrate with Stripe, the Stripe public API key is required for the stripe.pubblic_api_key
property.
The Reactjs application needs the price_id
from Stripe to integrate with the Stripe payment plans. The plans will be shown in the pricing table as the property values in the JSON plans
. It’s important that the priceId
property value of each plan matches the plan’s price_id
in Stripe.

/functions/config.json
FileIn the /functions
folder, create a config.json
file as the example shows below.
You will need to put in the stripe secret API key and the endpoint secret in the configuration file to integrate the cloud functions with Stripe.
Plans are also needed for the cloud functions similar to the Reactjs application.
For sending new user invites, the mailgun
JSON is needed. The details are covered in the next section.
{
"brand": "My Brand",
"site_name": "My SaaS App",
"site_url": "https://app.mydomain.com",

"domain": "app.mydomain.com",
"from": "No Reply <no-reply@app.mydomain.com>",
"templates":{
"invite_email": "invite"
}
}
}
The framework integrates with Mailgun to send invite emails when users are invited to join subscription accounts. To setup the integration, retrieve the API key from Mailgun and create a file called mailgun.json
under the src
folder as the example below shows.
{
"api_key": "...",
"domain": "app.mydomain.com",
"from": "No Reply <no-reply@app.mydomain.com>",
"templates":{
"invite_email": "invite"
}
In Mailgun, you will need a template for the invite emails. Create a template called invite
with the subject line below.
{{sender}} invited you to {{site_name}}
In the template body, use the following copy.
Hi {{name}},
You received this invite because {{sender}} invited you to join {{site_name}}. Please sign in ({{sign_in_url}}) to accept the invite.
If you don't have a user account yet, please sign up ({{sign_up_url}}) here.
Best regards,
The {{site_name}} team
The invite template supports the following variables:
Note: The invite email is optional for the invite process. You can skip this step but the new users will need to be informed by other methods so that they know where to sign up and sign in to accept the invites.
The SaaS package uses Firestore database to store and manage the subscription data. To secure the data, the following Firestore rules need to be added to your Firestore database rules.
match /users/{userId}/paymentMethods/{paymentMethodId} {
allow read, update, create, delete: if request.auth.uid == userId;
}
match /subscriptions/{subscriptionId} {
allow read: if request.auth.uid != null && request.auth.uid in resource.data.permissions.access;
allow update: if request.auth.uid != null && request.auth.uid in resource.data.permissions.admin && (!request.resource.data.diff(resource.data).affectedKeys()
.hasAny(['currency', 'ownerId', 'paymentCycle', 'paymentMethod', 'plan', 'price', 'stripePriceId', 'stripeSubscriptionId', 'subscriptionCreated', 'subscriptionCurrentPeriodEnd', 'subscriptionCurrentPeriodStart', 'subscriptionEnded', 'subscriptionStatus']));
}
match /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/invoices/{invoiceId} {
allow read: if request.auth.uid != null && request.auth.uid in get(/databases/$(database)/documents/subscriptions/$(subscriptionId)).data.permissions.admin;
}
match /invites/{inviteId} {
allow read, delete: if request.auth.uid != null && request.auth.token.email == resource.data.email;
}
