One sort of trigger I can't seem to find with these new Firebase Functions is a function that runs periodically and could do something such as if a data is a certain value, remove it.

I know there is an onwrite function that will do something upon a change, but is there a function that will just loop through a child overall periodically?

We do not currently have native Cron type events in Cloud Functions, in the meantime check out how we suggest to achieve this in our periodic deletion of unused accounts example or our AppEngine cron example on Github.
