Firebase身份验证：如何获取当前用户的密码？

Question

i'm new to firebase Authentication .. so, i'm creating a basic app with a profile, i've made an activity to edit basic informations of the user such as DisplayName and Email ... , i wan't to add the capability of changing passwords, but first , i wan't to check current user's password and compare it to a String from an InputEditText that the user must know his current password before changing it.

EDIT : the thing i'm asking about is i ask the user to write his current Password in order to be able to change it to a new one to reduce hacking or something like that, like on Facebook when you're trying to change the Email or Password or even the Name it asks you for your current Password .

From the Firebase documentation :

Some security-sensitive actions—such as deleting an account, setting a primary email address, and changing a password —require that the user has recently signed in.

If you perform one of these actions, and the user signed in too long ago, the action fails and throws FirebaseAuthRecentLoginRequiredException . When this happens, re-authenticate the user by getting new sign-in credentials from the user and passing the credentials to reauthenticate. For example:

 FirebaseUser user = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser(); // Get auth credentials from the user for re-authentication. The example below shows // email and password credentials but there are multiple possible providers, // such as GoogleAuthProvider or FacebookAuthProvider. AuthCredential credential = EmailAuthProvider .getCredential("user@example.com", "password1234"); // Prompt the user to re-provide their sign-in credentials user.reauthenticate(credential) .addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<Void>() { @Override public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<Void> task) { Log.d(TAG, "User re-authenticated."); } });
