Firebase Functions Samples Library

This repository contains a collection of samples showcasing some typical uses of Firebase Functions.

Prerequisites

To learn how to get started with Firebase Functions try the quickstart samples and have a look at the documentation.

Use Cases and Samples

This repository contains the following samples:

Authorize with LinkedIn

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.

Firebase Database Child Nodes Count

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 an Realtime Database trigger.

Automatic message translation

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 an Realtime Database trigger.

Limit number of child nodes

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 an Realtime Database trigger.

Import Data to Big Query

Copies Firebase Database elements into BigQuery automatically. This can be useful for instance for further logs analysis.

Uses an Realtime Database trigger.
