It definitely doesn’t have to be that way. I work on Firebase and I’ve spent most of the last year specifically working on our local development experience for our serverless backend products:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/emulator-suite https://firebase.google.com/docs/emulator-suite
Still very actively working on this but our goal is that nobody ever has to test via deploy again.
- randomsearch 6y agoLove firebase, thanks for your work! the local emulator suite is so important a feature and keenly following your progress. Slightly OT... perhaps cheeky... any idea why firebase doesn’t provide automated backups for firestore and storage out of the box? Seems like a no brainer and a valuable service people would pay for.
- habosa 6y agoWe're working on Firestore backups. Haven't heard many people ask for Storage backups though ... so I don't think that's on the roadmap at the moment.
- robertlagrant 6y agoI'm currently working on a little project backed by Firebase. Really interesting. Good to hear you're doing this - at my day job one of our key factors in choosing a technology is whether we can spin it up in docker-compose in CI and do real-as-possible ephemeral integration tests.
