Firebase Native Cordova Plugins

Firebase Analytics, Remote Config, Crash Reporting etc. only appear to be available in the native android/ios SDKs and not the web SDK.

I have not been able to find a maintained cordova plugin for the native firebase SDKs. Does anyone know if there is a cordova plugin for the native firebase SDKs, or of one in the works?

Looks like someone started a repositry for the native firebase v3 cordova plugin here: https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase

The author's initial primary purpose is for push notifications, but we may be able to fork it and add additional features.

There's https://github.com/Telerik-Verified-Plugins/Firebase but it's indeed a bit outdated (version 2.3.1 from Sept 30, 2015 while version 2.4.2 was out March 28, 2016 and version 3 May 18, 2016). I don't know if there's a lot to do to make it compatible with the latest 2.* SDK, but migrating to 3 might require more work.

Another issue with using the Web SDK is when saving data:

The Firebase Realtime Database web APIs do not persist data offline outside of the session.

so if you close your app before everything was saved, you'll lose things. There's no such note on the native SDKs.
