Callable Functions and firebase serve

[alb...@global-trust.eu]

When we run firebase serve, we get hosting/functions up and running, and everything looks ok.

But whenever we invoke firebase.functions().httpsCallable(''functionName') it tries to run it from firebase servers and not from our emulator.

Is there a way to force firebase.functions().httpsCallable to use emulator in dev mode?

Hello!

Looking at the code here, it looks like it's hardcoded to use a hosted cloud functions environment. Hooking it up to the local functions emulator is a great idea however! I'll follow up with some of the folks who work on this internally.

Happy Monday,

+1 for adding this to the local emulation. Deploying in order to test makes it a lot harder to debug issues.

Yup, for now i have patched my local version, as it helps a lot with my current workflow.

FYI, the team is definitely looking into adding better support for callables for:

1) The local shell (`firebase functions:shell`)

2) The local emulator (`firebase serve`), allowing the SDK to access a localhost URL

3) Unit tests with the firebase-functions-test node module

can you please share what you did to patch this? maybe a link to source code?

I need this as well!

Thanks.

This would be a really nice feature! Is there a github issue to keep track?
