What is @firebase/functions-compat?
The @firebase/functions-compat package is designed to provide a compatibility layer for Firebase Cloud Functions in web applications using the Firebase platform. It allows developers to interact with backend functions seamlessly, enabling serverless architecture benefits such as scalability and simplified codebases.
Calling Cloud Functions
This feature allows developers to invoke cloud functions deployed on Firebase. The code sample demonstrates how to call a cloud function named 'myFunction' with some data and handle the response or error.
const functions = require('@firebase/functions-compat');
const callMyFunction = functions.httpsCallable('myFunction');
callMyFunction({ someData: 'example' })
.then(result => {
console.log(result.data);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('Error:', error);
});
