Run firebase emulators on github actions - firebase

Question

I'm trying to run my test on Github Actinos but after several attempts I was not able to do so.
Receiving
Error: firestore: Firestore Emulator has exited because java is not installed, you can install it from https://openjdk.java.net/install/
- name: Test
uses: w9jds/firebase-action#v1.3.1
env:

- name: Print debug logs
if: failure()

That's the output from action name: Test

How can I run my tests on Github Actions?

Answer 1

At the time of writing, the unofficial firebase-action has recently added Java support. Unfortunately this is Java 7, and the emulator requires Java 8. (I have opened an issue in the repo to get this fixed).
Alternatively, for anyone that is interested, I have found the following to work well:
name: Test Firebase rules on PR
'on': pull_request
jobs:
test_rules:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
- uses: actions/setup-node#v1
with:
node-version: '12'
- run: npm install -g firebase-tools
- run: npm ci
- run: firebase emulators:exec --only firestore \"npm run test --exit\"
There are two important notes about the above workflow file:
ubuntu-latest is required as this contains both node and java.
actions/setup-node#v1 is required to setup node to allow the install of global npm packages.
Also, if you would like to add a deploy step to the above you would only need to add this above the setup-node step, for authentication:
- uses: google-github-actions/setup-gcloud#master
with:
project_id: ${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT_ID }}
service_account_key: ${{ secrets.GCP_SA_KEY }}
export_default_credentials: true
(This is because the export_default_credentials will export the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable which firebase-tools will use for authentication).

Answer 2

Try this -
name: next
on:
push:
branches: [ master ]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Setting-up Node.js
uses: actions/setup-node#v2-beta
with:
node-version: '10'
- name: Installing npm dependencies
run: npm ci --prefer-offline --no-audit --progress=false
- name: Checking-out
uses: actions/checkout#v2
- name: Setting-up JAVA
uses: actions/setup-java#v1.3.0
with:
java-version: "12.x"
- name: Setup and Test Emulator
uses: w9jds/firebase-action#v1.3.1
env:
JAVA_HOME: ${{ env.JAVA_HOME }}
FIREBASE_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FIREBASE_TOKEN }}
GCLOUD_PROJECT: ${{ secrets.nextGCLOUD_PROJECT }}
PROJECT_ID: ${{ secrets.nextFIREBASE_PROJECTID }}
with:
args: |
setup:emulators:firestore
emulators:exec --only firestore \"npm run test --exit\"

Answer 3

This worked for me
jobs:
test:
name: Test
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
- uses: actions/setup-node#v1
with:
node-version: '12'
- name: Install Dependacies
run: cd functions && npm install
- name: Test to Firebase
uses: w9jds/firebase-action#master
with:
args: emulators:exec --only firestore \"cd functions && npm run test --exit\"
env:
FIREBASE_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.FIREBASE_TOKEN }}

Answer 4

If you don't need node environment, try this
name: Test and coverage
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
with:
fetch-depth: 2
- uses: actions/setup-go#v2
with:
go-version: '1.19'
- name: Install firebase
run: curl -sL https://firebase.tools | bash
- name: Run firebase emulators
run: firebase emulators:start --only auth &
- name: Run coverage
run: go test -race -coverprofile=coverage.txt -covermode=atomic ./...
- name: Upload coverage to Codecov
uses: codecov/codecov-action#v3
with:
token: ${{ secrets.CODECOV_TOKEN }}
