Can not see the Firebase function deployed

Question

I followed the following steps:

1. The Firebase CLI (Command Line Interface) requires Node.js and npm, which you can install by following the instructions on https

Answer 1

For Cloud Functions, it is required to add your function to the special exports object (it is a Node's way of making the function accessible outside of the current file) Make sure to have index.js in your functions directory:

Example of a function:

// Import the Firebase SDK for Google Cloud Functions.
const functions = require('firebase-functions');
// Import and initialize the Firebase Admin SDK.
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
admin.initializeApp();



// Your function declaration. Example of a fired function when a user is created in Auth feature.
exports.myFunction = functions.auth.user().onCreate(async (user) => {
// ... your code here.
});

Then for deployment follow these steps:

• First, if not done, make sure to have firebase-tools installed: $ npm install -g firebase-tools

• And initialised: $ firebase init

• For full deployment: $ firebase deploy

• OR for functions deployment $ firebase deploy --only functions
• OR to deploy specific functions $ firebase deploy --only functions:function1,functions:function2

A good read with a very useful example: https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/firebase-cloud-functions/#7
