Further reading: Firebase SDK for Cloud Functions

Install and deploy

1. Create a Firebase Project using the Firebase Console.
2. Clone or download this repo and go to cd firebase-cloud-functions directory.
3. You must have the Firebase CLI installed. If you don't have it install it with npm install -g firebase-tools and then configure it with firebase login.
4. Configure the CLI locally by using firebase init and select your project in the list.
5. Follow Add the Firebase Admin SDK to Your Server and save it as config.js
6. Copy index.js and config.js to functions folder by: cp index.js config.js functions/
7. Install Cloud Functions dependencies locally by running: cd functions; npm install
8. Deploy to Firebase Cloud Functions by firebase deploy

Once deployed endpoint like this will be created and displayed:

  https://us-central1-xxxxx-auth.cloudfunctions.net/hasuraWebhook

Add webhook endpoint to Hasura GraphQL

Set --auth-hook or HASURA_GRAPHQL_AUTH_HOOK to the endpoint obtained above.

GraphQL engine server flags reference for details.

Create table and set permission

Follow Common roles and auth examples on Hasura doc for details of how to setup permission to a table.

Make sure to change id column of user table to TXT type as uid sent from webhook is firebase User UID format (e.g. 0LnvZc7405TjRTbjURhZYYVXPI52)

How to call webhook from frontend JS code (React, VueJS, Angular etc...)

postAxios.js

import axiosBase from 'axios'
import * as firebase from 'firebase'

const getIdToken = async () => {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(function (user) {
      if (user) {
        resolve(firebase.auth().currentUser.getIdToken())
      } else {
        reject(Error('user logged out'))
      }
    })
  })
}

export const postAxios = async (queryString) => {
  const idToken = await getIdToken()

  const axios = axiosBase.create({
    baseURL: 'https://YOURHASURADOMAIN/v1alpha1/graphql',
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + idToken
    },
    responseType: 'json',
    method: 'post'
  })

  return await axios({
    data: {
      query: queryString
    }
  }).catch(({response: r}) => console.log(r))
}

userService.js

import { postAxios } from './postAxios'

export default {
  async getUsers () {
    const queryString = `
      query {
        user
        {
          id
          name
        }
      }
  　`

    const result = await postAxios(queryString)
    return result.data.data.user
  }
}
