Methods to search for user accounts by email address in Firebase
/***************************************************
* Simple and elegant, no code complexity
* Disadvantages: Requires warming all data into server memory (could take a long time for MBs of data or millions of records)
* (This disadvantage should go away as we add optimizations to the core product)

Add side-loads to BookshelfJS
Knex = require 'knex'
Promise = require 'bluebird'
FlormModel = require './flormModel'
Document = FlormModel.extend
tableName: 'documents'
# here's an example sideload construct. I want to know document editor ids, which are stored in the
# edges join table - that table stores parent_id and child_id polymorphically (with parent_type and child_type)
# also polymorphically with join type- 'grant: edit' denotes editorship.

Role-based security in Firebase
/*
This example shows how you can use your data structure as a basis for
your Firebase security rules to implement role-based security. We store
each user by their Twitter uid, and use the following simplistic approach
for user roles:
0 - GUEST
10 - USER
20 - MODERATOR

Lodash / Underscore sort object keys. Like _.sortBy(), but on keys instead of values, returning an object, not an array. Defaults to alphanumeric sort.
var obj = {b: 3, c: 2, a: 1};
_.sortKeysBy(obj);
// {a: 1, b: 3, c: 2}
_.sortKeysBy(obj, function (value, key) {
return value;
});
// {a: 1, c: 2, b: 3}
