First, install the generator:
npm install -D @nx-toolkits/firebase
We generate a Firebase Functions app using the @nx-toolkits/firebase:functions
and
connect it to the Firebase project using the --project
option. This allows for
normal firebase cli commands to be used to work, as if it was an app generated
using firebase cli, but with the added benefits of Nx.
Use the generator to generate a Firebase Functions app:
nx g @nx-toolkits/firebase:functions
This will generate a Firebase Functions app in the apps
folder.
Option | alias | Description |
---|---|---|
--name |

--directory |
The directory to create the app in. | |

You can deploy a Firebase Functions app using the nx run deploy
command:
nx run my-functions-app:deploy
The above command with run linting, building, and then deploy the app to Firebase.
You can also use firebase cli to deploy the app, just like you would normally do:
firebase deploy --only functions
You can lint a Firebase Functions app using the nx lint
command:
nx run my-functions-app:lint
You can build a Firebase Functions app using the nx build
command:
nx run my-functions-app:build
