reactjs - algolia full text search, firebase

Question

i am using the firebase boilerplate: https://github.com/WataruMaeda/react-firebase-boilerplate

and immediately tried to add full text search.

Code

import * as functions from "firebase-functions";
import * as admin from "firebase-admin";
admin.initializeApp();
const env = functions.config();

const algoliasearch = require("algoliasearch");

var client = algoliasearch(env.algolia.appid, env.algolia.apikey);
const index = client.initIndex("Moseley");

exports.indexHomecare = functions.firestore
  .document("contractors")
  .onCreate((snap, context) => {
    const data = snap.data()
    const objectId = snap.id
    return index.addObject({
      objectId,
      ...data,
    })
  });

exports.removeHomeCare = functions.firestore
  .document("contractors")
  .onDelete((snap, context) => {
    const objectId = snap.id
    return index.deleteObject({
      objectId,
    })
  });

error message

Functions deploy had errors with the following functions:
        indexHomecare
        removeHomeCare


To try redeploying those functions, run:
    firebase deploy --only "functions:indexHomecare,functions:removeHomeCare"


To continue deploying other features (such as database), run:
    firebase deploy --except functions

Error: Functions did not deploy properly.

Having trouble? Try firebase [command] --help

There does not seem to be any error message telling me what is wrong, further I have closely followed the fireship video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Z0V3cvgns8&ab_channel=Fireship

any ideas how to fix this?

Answer 1

Looks like the failure was due to the error in your function code.

1. indexHomeCare - To add object to index you have to use saveObject

• REF: https://www.algolia.com/doc/api-reference/api-methods/add-objects/

2. removeHomeCare - To remove an object from index, pass the object ID as string value / or for multiple delete within an array.

• REF: https://www.algolia.com/doc/api-reference/api-methods/delete-objects/

exports.indexHomecare = functions.firestore
  .document("contractors")
  .onCreate((snap, context) => {
    const data = snap.data()
    const objectId = snap.id
    return index.saveObject({
      objectId,
      ...data,
    })
  });

exports.removeHomeCare = functions.firestore
  .document("contractors")
  .onDelete((snap, context) => {
    const objectId = snap.id
    return index.deleteObject(objectId);
  });
