Project Set up

The FlutterFire CLI extracts information from your Firebase project and selected project applications to generate all the configuration for a specific platform.

In the root of your application, run the configure command:

flutterfire configure

After you install, all the configurations in your build.gradle file are added and the google-service.json are added in the android folder and Firebase will be integrated in your system this will save you all the trouble of having to install all the configurations one by one and this may cause some of the things to be oeverlooked.

Serverless Framework AWS NodeJS Example

This template demonstrates how to deploy a NodeJS function running on AWS Lambda using the traditional Serverless Framework. The deployed function does not include any event definitions as well as any kind of persistence (database). For more advanced configurations check out the examples repo which includes integrations with SQS, DynamoDB or examples of functions that are triggered in cron-like manner. For details about configuration of specific events, please refer to our documentation.

Usage

Deployment

In order to deploy the example, you need to run the following command:

$ serverless deploy

After running deploy, you should see output similar to:

Deploying aws-node-project to stage dev (us-east-1)

✔ Service deployed to stack aws-node-project-dev (112s)

functions:
  hello: aws-node-project-dev-hello (1.5 kB)

Invocation

After successful deployment, you can invoke the deployed function by using the following command:

serverless invoke --function hello

Which should result in response similar to the following:

{
    "statusCode": 200,
    "body": "{n  "message": "Go Serverless v3.0! Your function executed successfully!",n  "input": {}n}"
}

Local development

You can invoke your function locally by using the following command:

serverless invoke local --function hello

Which should result in response similar to the following:

{
    "statusCode": 200,
    "body": "{n  "message": "Go Serverless v3.0! Your function executed successfully!",n  "input": ""n}"
}
