# Firestore Cloud Functions
|
|
|
|
This is code that doesn't make sense on the frontend client, e.g.
|
|
|
|
- Long-running or slow operation (database)
|
|
- Tasks that need to be run every so often (syncing email list to Mailjet)
|
|
- Anything we should't trust to clients (secrets, auth)
|
|
|
|
If you want to make and test changes, you'll have to do a bit of setup...
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
Adapted from https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/get-started
|
|
|
|
0. `$ cd functions` to switch to this folder
|
|
1. `$ yarn global add firebase-tools` to install the Firebase CLI globally
|
|
2. `$ yarn` to install JS dependencies
|
|
3. `$ firebase login` to authenticate the CLI tools to Firebase
|
|
4. `$ firebase use dev` to choose the dev project
|
|
|
|
#### (Installing) For local development
|
|
|
|
0. [Install](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install) gcloud CLI
|
|
1. If you don't have java (or see the error `Error: Process java -version has exited with code 1. Please make sure Java is installed and on your system PATH.`):
|
|
|
|
1. `$ brew install java`
|
|
2. `$ sudo ln -sfn /opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk.jdk`
|
|
|
|
2. `$ gcloud auth login` to authenticate the CLI tools to Google Cloud
|
|
3. `$ gcloud config set project <project-id>` to choose the project (`$ gcloud projects list` to see options)
|
|
4. `$ mkdir firestore_export` to create a folder to store the exported database
|
|
5. `$ yarn db:update-local-from-remote` to pull the remote db from Firestore to local 0. TODO: this won't work when open source, we'll have to point to the public db
|
|
|
|
## Developing locally
|
|
|
|
0. `$ ./dev.sh localdb` to start the local emulator and front end
|
|
1. If you change db trigger code, you have to start (doesn't have to complete) the deploy of it to dev to cause a hard emulator code refresh `$ firebase deploy --only functions:dbTriggerNameHere`
|
|
- There's surely a better way to cause/react to a db trigger update but just adding this here for now as it works
|
|
2. If you want to test a scheduled function replace your function in `test-scheduled-function.ts` and send a GET to `http://localhost:8088/testscheduledfunction` (Best user experience is via [Postman](https://www.postman.com/downloads/)!)
|
|
|
|
## Firestore Commands
|
|
|
|
- `db:update-local-from-remote` - Pull the remote db from Firestore to local, also calls:
|
|
- `db:backup-remote` - Exports the remote dev db to the backup folder on Google Cloud Storage (called on every `db:update-local-from-remote`)
|
|
- `db:rename-remote-backup-folder` - Renames the remote backup folder (called on every `db:backup-remote` to preserve the previous db backup)
|
|
- `db:backup-local` - Save the local db changes to the disk (overwrites existing)
|
|
|
|
## Debugging
|
|
|
|
- Find local logs directly in the shell that ran `$ yarn dev`
|
|
- Find deployed logs [here](https://console.firebase.google.com/project/mantic-markets/functions/logs?search=&&severity=DEBUG)
|
|
|
|
## Deploying
|
|
|
|
0. After merging, you need to manually deploy to backend:
|
|
1. `git checkout main`
|
|
1. `git pull origin main`
|
|
1. `$ firebase use prod` to switch to prod
|
|
1. `$ firebase deploy --only functions` to push your changes live!
|
|
(Future TODO: auto-deploy functions on Git push)
|
|
|
|
## Secrets management
|
|
|
|
Secrets are strings that shouldn't be checked into Git (eg API keys, passwords). We store these using [Google Secret Manager](https://console.cloud.google.com/security/secret-manager), which provides them as environment variables to functions that require them. Some useful workflows:
|
|
|
|
- Set a secret: `$ firebase functions:secrets:set STRIPE_APIKEY`
|
|
- Then, enter the secret in the prompt.
|
|
- Read a secret: `$ firebase functions:secrets:access STRIPE_APIKEY`
