I'm working on a firebase app that contains an authentication system that allows users to sign up/login and create a profile. The app stores and calls profile info about the users. The system worked just fine until I realized there's no way for a user to reset their password. So I added sendPasswordResetEmail function and it's been downhill since then. I'm a newbie to firebase and to StackOverflow so forgive the mess you're about to see. Am I missing something in that function?
const resetpassword = async () => {
const email = document.getElementById('email').value;
try {
const { user } = auth.sendPasswordResetEmail(email);
alert('Password Reset Email Sent!');
}
catch(error) {
console.log("error ===>", error);
if (error.message === "Firebase: Error (auth/user-not-found).") {
alert("There is no user corresponding to this email address.")}
else (errorCode == 'auth/invalid-email') {
alert(errorMessage)}
}
}
If you are using firebase version 9 then use code snippet below to reset user password
import { getAuth, sendPasswordResetEmail } from "firebase/auth";
const auth = getAuth();
sendPasswordResetEmail(auth, email)
.then(() => {
// Password reset email sent!
// ..
})
.catch((error) => {
const errorCode = error.code;
const errorMessage = error.message;
// ..
});
