const app = express();

// Initialize Firebase Admin SDK
admin.initializeApp();

// Create an instance of the Authentication class

// Use the authentication middleware
app.use(auth.authenticate());

// Protect a route with authentication and authorization
app.get('/protected-route', auth.authorize(User, [{

  user: new mongoose.Types.ObjectId("user_id_here")
}]), (req, res) => {
  res.send('Access granted to protected route');
