My code:

var ref = firebase.database().ref('queue');
    var queue = new Queue(ref, function(data, progress, resolve, reject) {

      console.log(data);


       // Do some work
      progress(50);

      // Finish the task asynchronously
      setTimeout(function() {
        resolve();
      }, 1000);

That is because you are trying to add a task that is only a string, you need to add an object, it should be something like this:

{
  "queue": {
    "tasks": {
      "someKey": {
        "foo": true
      }
    }
  }
}
