Finally, we need the 'cloud function.' I will follow you one step at a time. Thank you for this awesome series!!!

[@shrestha0144]

if you're having problems running firebase init functions......use cmd,powershell on vscode has some issues and if its your first time,use firebase login first: step 1> win key + R > type cmd > hit enter step 2> step 3> firebase login step 4> firebase init functions hope that helped

[@Accou25]

thx

[@MichaelThinschmidt]

For Windows users. If you don't install as global(-g)) you will have no problem with ExecutionPolicy . Just install: npm install firebase-tools Step 2 : firebase login Step 3: firebase init functions And thanks net ninja for the amazing tutorial!

[@kierrboy8613]

thanks!

[@tahianaraolona4333]

Just in case it can help others, do no forget to type "firebase login" if iit sis the first time you use firebase cli in your system

[@wayne_gakuo]

This was helpful. Didn't think about this at first since I had signed in with a different account from before

[@thepassionatecoder5404]

thanx dude u saved potential waste of time i'd have done

[@Chammpion]

I had to do a '>firebase logout', then '>firebase login' to get the SDK sync'd up.

[@krishbajaj1187]

This was so so helpful

[@hootmx198]

@@Chammpion you're a legend thanks man

[@hojdog]

Thank you! I've been trying to figure this out but everyone online says to add an admin field to your user doc on the database, which seems so impractical. That way isn't practical because your security rules would have to become granular and overly complicated. I don't know why these custom claims are not well known of. Thanks again this is what I was hoping this series would show me.

[@achintyaagrawal]

In 2021, the cloud functions are not free with the spark plan. Is there a work-around for this

[@theSavanahDev]

Hey Ninja? I am loving this series and I think if you make another just about Firebase Functions it will be very helpful to me and lots of other people. Thank you.

Long Live the Ninja! Learning Firebase Rasengan

[@entrepreneerit4490]

Thanks!! I struggled with how to use tokens until this video. You seriously have helped me so much. Such a great teacher

[@HammadKhanYT]

If you are having trouble with 'firebase init functions', you may be logged in under a different user name while project may be under a different user name (multiple accounts). To fix that issue, 'firebase logout' and then run. On mac/linux you might have to use SUDO command.

[@tooneysbeatbox5491]

Hey man, saved my day, thanks !

[@FlexUtility]

This was great, thanks. I wish Google would explain it simply like this in their documentation.

[@emreaka3965]

This playlist is great. Thanks for sharing.

[@NetNinja]

Glad you like it! Thanks Emre

[@user-to1nj5oy8r]

Best firebase course ever !

[@alitaa1154]

on firebase 9 you have to login to the cli first , and if you are using yarn the process will be a bit different than npm , with yarn you need to run the command ( yarn global add firebase-tools ) then you have to login by typing (yarn firebase login ) after this you will be able to run the command ( yarn firebase init functions ) , thanks.

[@webLinguistic]

npm install -g firebase-tools... saved my day on windows.

[@melorenzo1278]

These tutorials are really good.

[@adamfarmer7665]

Just what I needed, thank you!

[@mohammadyunus2059]

How can I avoid the error of deployment of cloud functions of firebase in node engine 10 which requires creating billing account with credit or debit card that I currently don't have. I have also tried to deploy Cloud Functions in node 8. It adds the function to the console but displays that node.js 8 has been deprecated. If this is the case, how can I sort this issue out?

[@lazymacs2823]

[@shakruddinpathan]

Hey ninja how to upload images in the firebase

[@AbhishekKumar-mq1tt]

Thank u for this awesome video and series

[@anatoly.ryabchenko]

I got a few problems with this part of a tutorial on my mac. When trying to install a firebase-tools package, I got the message saying "Missing write access to /usr/local/lib/node_modules". The problem was solved by going to that folder and allowing write/read access to everyone, both for node-modules and npm folders (get info -> sharing&permissions -> set "Read and Write" privilege to everyone). Then I had a problem trying to initialize functions. It turns out, that you need to login first and then initialize functions (write "firebase login" in the terminal without quotes). Hope it will be helpful for some of you! :)

[@juanfperez]

How do you restrict data that the user inputs so that only the user who created it can view it?

[@lazymacs2823]

Is there any alternative for custom claims? I'm having a hard time to implement user roles in firestore.

[@tomascarignano5002]

Thank you!!!

[@GamesBrainedPlays]

To anyone who is facing "Error: Failed to list Firebase projects. See firebase-debug.log for more info.". First, check whether you are logged in using "firebase login". If the error is persistent, logout and login again using "firebase logout && firebase login", and then try "firebase init functions" again.

[@n7pankake236]

Do you have an updated version of this by any chance ?

[@mahinhossen4251]

for those having issues: You can download nodejs(LTS is safe) from nodejs.org/en/download/ and just install it. Note: For win10 home users,you might not be able to run those command from vscode. To fix this, you can delete "firebase.ps1" from local/roaming directory and run command "npm cache clean --force" from cmd. After that it should work from vscode command

[@RajaKumarVanukuru]

when i run the commands as administrator in powershell then only they are working why ?

[@yadude101]

i cannot run: npm install firebase-tools -g I get the error, Error: EACCES: permission denied, access '/usr/local/lib/node_modules' does this mean I should put, sudo npm install firebase-tools -g ??

[@yadude101]

-I ended up running yarn global add firebase-tools -this installed firebase-tools -Then i put firebase init functions -got an error Failed to authenticate, have you run firebase login? -so I ran firebase login --no-localhost -it responded with ? Allow Firebase to collect CLI usage and error reporting information? Yes

[@ayza6488]

First thank you for all your tutorial video you have a special way of explaining the concepts that I really like. I have a question why we can't add a field on the users collection in Firestore, for example isAdmin: true or false instead of using custom claims.

[@mihirlakhamje9575]

you can do that too. there are many ways to Authorize the user 1) by security rules: you can add role in user collection and setup a rules for that 2) by custom claims: add custom claims in jwt token. you can easily fetch the Authorized user 3) by session cookies create a cookie for a verified token and good to go. All these methods can also implement through firebase-admin sdk you can implement all these methods in one app, it will be highly secured app❤ ~Happy coding

[@MurrTuck]

Love your work as always. How would I go about utilizing the .gitignore file? For example, placing my sensitive information from firebase that is in my index.html into like a .env file and the calling upon that file to render on the index.html? That way nothing is being uploaded to github and could be potentially harmful to my data.

[@sqwrl5424]

Shaun, wish id found you you 2 years ago...your tutorials are ace.. . anyway this lesson: after, i firebase-Tools if its your fist time, like other said you need to run, firebase login. I had this error and this is the fix: "Error: An unexpected error has occured. There is no chance to paste the code ...Please do the neeful add a PATH variable C:\Windows\System32 " ?reset? run: firebase login let google take over for a bit... buy Shaun a beer HTH someone

[@fayzsabir7623]

Heeeey Ninja i have a question, the site is static or dynamic when we work just with firebase and no server side language or framwork is it enough if make a website just with firebase

[@BenHayat]

Hey Shaun, are you planning to make a KZbin series or Udemy course on Cloud functions and Vue? Please to-the-power-of 100 :-)

[@moinakhter2474]

Great but why we install firebase-tool globally what is the advantage plz reply

[@deejayerick]

Thanks good

[@eazlai]

very cool

[@marcetech515]

Hey... sorry to bother. Does anyone used custom claims with react? Can anyone lend me a hand with it?

[@amyra98]

npm install firebase-tools -g firebase init functions

[@ericwilliam1697]

Shaun, is it possible to increase the screen resolution on the udemy courses? The previews are in 720px max.

[@Atwahira]

firebase init command doesn't work. it says command not found. what do i do?

yeap I'm in the same problem, npm or firebase not recognized, I guess we are not in the right folder, but dunno which is the right one

mate, you have to install node.js and then add it to your path ;)
