Firebase Cloud Functions 中的可重用函数

Question

My problem is trying to define a local function in Firebase Cloud Functions. I would like my function to be global and reusable, but it seems to not export when I deploy using Firebase-CLI.

function mapEvents(data) {
    // Very long calculation
    ...
    return events
}

exports.importEvents = functions.https.onRequest((req, res) => {
    ...
    const mappedEvents = mapEvents(data);
    ...
})

This is the logged error I'm getting in the Firebase console when I run importEvents:

TypeError: this.mapEvent is not a function at module.exports.importEvents.functions.https.onRequest (/user_code/index.js:199:29) at cloudFunction (/user_code/node_modules/firebase-functions/lib/providers/https.js:26:41)

Answer 1

This might be late but helpful for someone else.

Since you are using arrow function on exports.importEvents

Update the mapEvents function to arrow function

const mapEvents = (data) => {
    // Very long calculation
    ...
    return events
}

Hope this helps
