Deploy Firebase Cloud Function

What is Firebase Cloud Function

Cloud Functions for Firebase is a serverless framework that lets you automatically run backend code in response to events triggered by Firebase features and HTTPS requests. Your JavaScript or TypeScript code is stored in Google's cloud and runs in a managed environment.

so simply we will deploy the cloud function in the /Halo_Doctor_Cloud_Function_Firebase folder to our firebase project

Set up Node.js and the Firebase CLI

You'll need a Node.js, and you'll need the Firebase CLI to deploy functions to the Cloud Functions runtime.

• Install Node.js and Npm

info

Node.js versions 10, 12, and 14 are supported. See Set runtime options for important information regarding ongoing support for these versions of Node.js.

Once you have Node.js and npm installed, install the Firebase CLI via your preferred method. To install the CLI via npm, use:

npm install -g firebase-tools

• after installing Node Js, and Firebase Cli we will initialize our firebase cloud

Initialize Firebase Cloud

Open terminal in folder, /Halo_Doctor_Cloud_Function_Firebase if you use Windows open it with CMD

• inside that folder type

firebase init

• if this is your first time using the firebase cloud function, chances are you will be asked to login first, authenticate using the firebase account that you created the project

• after that, you'l be asked if you ready to proceed, type Y and then enter
