Song-Book
Service for creating collections of songs. It includes a web client, a mobile application and, in the future, a telegram bot.
Set Telegram Token as an environment variable
To avoid using the secret key (the Telegram token is a secret key) within our code we can set up the Telegram token as an environment variable for your Firebase project. Once you’ve got the token from the Botfather bot, we can add this value to the Firebase config:
firebase functions:config:set telegram.token="<telegram-token-string>"
Test
ngrok http 5001
firebase emulators:start
Check logs in emulator
After all these tunings, we can access the function from the outside. The pattern:
<ngrok-link>/<project-id>/<region>/<the-name-of-function>
Run emulator
firebase emulators:start --only functions
# Or use
npm run serve
Set the Cloud Function’s URL as a webhook for Telegram
Deploy the function
firebase deploy --only functions
# Or use
npm run deploy
