Why?
firebase-tools
is a CLI tool for all Firebase projects, regardless of language. To date, the methods for installation have been downloading the CLI from the Firebase website or through npm
, with npm
being the primary method advertised.
With asdf
and the asdf-firebase
plugin, users/teams of any Firebase project can install and pin the version of the Firebase CLI without needing to manage Node.js or npm
!
Contributing
Contributions of any kind welcome! See the contributing guide.
Thanks goes to these contributors!
Why are there Node deps here?
I decided the value of commitlint & sharing Git Hooks with husky were greater than the cost of including these deps. Not only this, but dogfooding asdf
for dev deps makes this less of an issue.
