Functions on other events

on Firestore events

Cloud functions triggered by a database event are non-blocking: they run after the write.

sanitize data post-write

// v1 syntax
exports.myFunction = functions.firestore
    .document("my-collection/{docId}")
    .onWrite((change, context) => {
        /* ... */
    })

on Storage events

sanitize data post-upload

the user uploads a file to Firebase Storage. Sanitize data post-upload. For exampeL

exports.generateThumbnail = functions.storage.object().onFinalize(async (object) => {
    const fileBucket = object.bucket
    // The Storage bucket that contains the file.
    const filePath = object.name
    // File path in the bucket.
    const contentType = object.contentType
    // File content type.
    const metageneration = object.metageneration
    // Number of times metadata has been generated. New objects have a value of 1.
})
