This repository contains a collection of samples showcasing some typical uses of Cloud Functions for Firebase.
Cloud Functions is a hosted, private, and scalable Node.js environment where you can run JavaScript code. Cloud Functions for Firebase integrates the Firebase platform by letting you write code that responds to events and invokes functionality exposed by other Firebase features.
To learn how to get started with Cloud Functions for Firebase by having a look at our Getting Started Guide, trying the quickstart samples and looking at the documentation.
This repository contains the following samples:
This quickstart sample demonstrates using Cloud Functions triggered by Firebase Realtime Database events. The function uppercase messages written to the datastore.
This quickstart sample demonstrates using Cloud Functions triggered by HTTPS requests. The function returns the current server time and allows for date time formatting.
This quickstart demonstrates using Cloud Functions with an HTTPS trigger that's triggered through a Firebase Hosting URL. The function will display a repeated number of "BONG" depending on the hour of the day.
This quickstart sample demonstrates using Cloud Functions triggered by Firebase Storage events. The function generates a thumbnail of uploaded images.
This quickstart sample demonstrates using Cloud Functions triggered by Firebase Auth events. The functions sends a Welcome email when user accounts are created (or when users signs-in using an Identity Provider for the first time) and sends a Goodbye email when user accounts are deleted.
This quickstart sample demonstrates using Cloud Functions triggered by PubSub events. The functions log the PubSub payload in a Hello world message.
This sample shows how to authenticate access to a JSON API to only allow access to data for a specific Firebase user.
This samples shows how to restrict an HTTPS Function to only the Firebase users of your app.
Only users who pass a valid Firebase ID token as a Bearer token in the Authorization header of the HTTP request or in a __session cookie are authorized to use the function.
Checking the ID token is done with an ExpressJs middleware that also passes the decoded ID token in the Express request object.
Uses an HTTP trigger.
This samples shows how to serve server-side generated HTML pages using the HandlebarsJs templating system and serve User specific content by always passing the Firebase ID token in a __session cookie.
This sample shows how to create an action for the Google Home/Assistant using the Actions SDK hosted on Cloud Functions. The sample action asks users to say a number and reads out the ordinal of that number. Uses an HTTP trigger.
This sample demonstrates how to send a Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) notification from a Realtime Database triggered Function when users get new followers. The sample also features a Web UI to experience the FCM notification. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Demonstrates how to authorize with a 3rd party sign-in mechanism (LinkedIn in this case), create a Firebase custom auth token, update the user's profile and authorize Firebase. Uses an HTTP trigger.
This sample demonstrates how to create various customized images through Cloud Functions and Hosting and serve it to the client.
Demonstrates how to authorize with a 3rd party sign-in mechanism (Instagram in this case), create a Firebase custom auth token, update the user's profile and authorize Firebase. Uses an HTTP trigger.
This sample demonstrates how to create an isomorphic React application with server-side data fetching. This sample uses Cloud Functions, Hosting, and the Realtime Database.
Demonstrates how to authorize with a 3rd party sign-in mechanism (LINE in this case), create a Firebase custom auth token, update the user's profile and authorize Firebase. Uses an HTTP trigger.
Demonstrates how to automatically convert images that are uploaded to Firebase Storage to JPEG using ImageMagick. Uses a Firebase Storage trigger.
Demonstrates how to automatically generate a thumbnail for images that are uploaded to Firebase Storage using ImageMagick and generate a public download link for the images. Uses a Firebase Storage trigger.
Demonstrates how to use Node.js Stream to read image from Cloud Storage, generate a thumbnail image using Sharp and upload it back to Cloud Storage. Uses a Firebase Storage trigger.
Demonstrates how to automatically post GitHub commits to a Slack channel using an HTTPS triggered Function.
Demonstrates hows to integrate Firebase Auth and the Realtime database with Stripe via the Stripe Node.js library.
Demonstrates how to automatically moderate offensive images that are uploaded to Firebase Storage by using the Google Cloud Vision API to detect offensive images and ImageMagick to blur these images. Uses a Firebase Storage trigger.
Demonstrates how to automatically extract image's metadata using ImageMagick for images that are uploaded to Firebase Storage. Uses a Firebase Storage trigger.
How to moderate user input text for bad words. For example this can be used to moderate usernames, chat or forum messages. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Sends email confirmation after users subscribed to a mailing list. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Tracking when the Firebase Database (or a subset) was last modified. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Writing to the Firebase Database triggers a request to a callback URL (a Webhook). The content of the modified Data is sent to the Webhook. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Keeps track of the number of child nodes of a Firebase Database element allowing clients to filter or order results using the child count. This can be useful to keep tack of the number of "likes" or "followers" of a somethings shares through social media. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Integrates the Google Translate API to perform automatic text translation across any number of languages. Language codes can be stored in Firebase for on the fly changes. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Integrates the Google URL Shortener API to shorten URLs automatically as they are added to the database. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Make sure to keep the number of child nodes below a certain threshold. For instance this can be useful to limit the number of lines of logs or chat history below a given number. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Copies Firebase Database elements into BigQuery automatically. This can be useful for instance for further logs analysis. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
Enable full-text search on firebase database elements by using an Algolia hosted search service. Uses a Realtime Database trigger.
This sample shows how you can write your Cloud Functions code using the ES2017 syntax - which is not supported natively by Cloud Functions. This requires to run a preparation step where your code is transpiled to a supported version of JavaScript. Uses an Database trigger.
Deletes all associated user data that's on the Realtime database when a user deletes his Firebase account. Uses an Auth trigger.
This sample shows how to send a survey to your users who have updated your app. App Update is detected using a Firebase Analytics event. Uses an Analytics trigger.
This sample shows how to send a coupon to your users who have just purchased something. 10% off on your next purchase! Uses an Analytics trigger.
Periodically deletes the accounts of users who have not signed in the last month. Uses an HTTPS trigger.
Demonstrates how to authorize with a username/password sign-in mechanism, create a Firebase custom auth token, update the user's profile and authorize Firebase. Uses an HTTP trigger.
This sample demonstrates how to send a Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) notification to the developer device each time your app get a new user or lose one. Uses an Analytics trigger.
