functions-samples VS faasd

I tried to make a reddit like app. I used both realtime-database and firestore as database. The billing of the two is different from each other. I used realtime-database for frequently updated data (like or upvote, downvote count for ex.) and firestore for more stable and large data (post, comment, community and user data..). While doing this, I only used database rules, I did not use Cloud functions. So, I suggest you use a hybrid database to minimize your bill as much as possible and you can do amazing things with database rules. Have a good works.

const functions = require("firebase-functions"); // // Create and deploy your first functions // // https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/get-started // // exports.helloWorld = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => { // functions.logger.info("Hello logs!", {structuredData: true}); // response.send("Hello from Firebase!"); // });

Try something along these lines…? https://github.com/firebase/functions-samples/tree/main/Node-1st-gen/quickstarts/email-users

Cloud Functions for Firebase - Pros: Aligns to my app which uses Firebase; Cons: have to use Typescript which I have no experience with

Cloud Functions run on Google's servers and are part of your project, so only you and your project collaborators can deploy that code.

That would be a Firebase Cloud Function. Check their latest list of YouTube tutorials, they'll guide you through creating an app with full Firebase features.

Cloud Functions for Firebase

Cloud Functions are a serverless solution that allows you to run backend code in response to HTTPS requests or even more ⚡ powerfully, in response to events triggered by other Firebase products.

If you don't want to start with Kubernetes, faasd (https://github.com/openfaas/faasd) might be worth a look.

I found OpenFaaS and its little sibling faasd. To my understanding they expose single functions through a REST API for easy interfacing. It sounds nice but OpenFaaS is overkill and I had trouble setting up faasd.

Hope you find this interesting / useful - whether you're using AWS Lambda, OpenFaaS, or just plain old Go binaries. If you're wondering whether OpenFaaS requires K8s, you also have faasd as an option.

Have you seen faasd from openfaas? Easier to setup and doesn‘t require a full blown kubernetes cluster: https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

I'm the original creator of faasd, and just found this post on the Internet. What I liked was how he discovered faasd and found some unique value in it.

I wanted to share it all with a broader audience here. His bootstrap is a little bit convoluted, if you check out GitHub, we have a simple installer script and an eBook as a reference manual.

First of all, you need faas-cli in your client local machine. You should get the binary and set it to your path. If you are on linux or mac machine, moving the binary into "/usr/local/bin" will work. For windows machines, you need to set environment variables in Control Panel>System and Security>System>Advanced System Settings(single-binary-faas-cli)

Have you considered OpenFaaS - https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

I am on the same ship, after some digging around I'm considering OpenFaaS, checkout - https://github.com/openfaas/faasd

If you use https://github.com/openfaas/faasd, you can skip the whole Kubernetes setup as well.
