Firebase is Google's mobile platform that helps you quickly develop high-quality apps and grow your business.
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
Creates or replaces a child object within your Firebase Realtime Database. See the docs here
The Firebase Admin SDK API provides powerful backend functionality for Firebase apps. It allows you to interact with Firebase services like Firestore, Firebase Realtime Database, Firebase Storage, and Firebase Authentication directly from a server. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to automate complex workflows, respond to Firebase events in real-time, and integrate with countless other services.
import admin from "firebase-admin"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
firebase_admin_sdk: {
type: "app",
app: "firebase_admin_sdk",
},
},
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Enter values for the following parameters below this code step,
// These get passed to the initializeApp method below.
const {
projectId,
clientEmail,
privateKey,
region = "firebaseio.com",
} = this.firebase_admin_sdk.$auth
// Before passing the privateKey to the initializeApp constructor,
// we have to replace newline characters with literal newlines
const formattedPrivateKey = privateKey.replace(/\\n/g, "\n")
// See https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/admin/node/admin.credential.html#cert
if (!admin.apps.length) {
admin.initializeApp({
credential: admin.credential.cert({
projectId,
clientEmail,
privateKey: formattedPrivateKey,
}),
databaseURL: `https://${projectId}-default-rtdb.${region}/`,
})
}
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
