My goal is to use the polymerfire element to send a request to a Firebase endpoint to detect if there is data there and, if so, its content.
Please include in your answer a working demo if possible and extra points if you point to some good documentation as the current documentation is insufficient.
I expect the demo page to look like:
CLICK ME
ornithischia
foo bar baz
And when the CLICK ME button is pressed, the following to appear in the console:
"You clicked me!"
"triceratops"
"{appeared: -68000000, height: 3, length: 8, order: "ornithischia", vanished: -66000000, weight: 11000}"
The the demo page looks like:
CLICK ME
foo bar baz
And when the CLICK ME button is pressed, the following actually appears in the console:
"You clicked me!"
"triceratops"
"{}"

You first need to include <firebase-app> to initialize firebase.
<firebase-app
database-url="dinos-89701.firebaseio.com"
api-key="AIzaSyDLkCy3RNC5uFomEjVsLUehpzKFDrfAplU"
auth-domain="dinos-89701.firebaseio.com">
</firebase-app>
Get your api-key here:
