Golang Firebase Hosting Deployment CLI -- Beta Testers Needed

[Tony M]

For those using firebase-tools or Github Actions to deploy Firebase Hosting sites, we are looking for beta testers for a Golang Firebase Hosting CLI tool based on the Firebase Hosting REST API . It reduces, by over 90%, the deployment costs and runtime for apps with frequent updates.

The standard firebase-tools CLI pushes 250mb which makes storage & CPU an expensive blocker for using Firebase Hosting on restricted environments. 

If you are interested in the new Golang Firebase hosting CLI please email me to be added to the testers. The Repo will be online soon.

Hey Tony,

(firebaser and maintainer of firebase-tools here) I'd love to be added to the group to test it out! I'm excited to see how you achieved these efficiency improvements.

Awesome Joe!  I'll have the artifacts ready to share in a few days now that I'm decoupling them from another install. 

No wizardry besides using Golang static compile to provide a standalone CLI that doesn't require node , npm & node modules. Currently the debug binary is about 15mb . This helps on cloud run and x-small VMs where iops & vcpu are restricted.

I would really love to be part of the testing group and get to see how it's done .

I've made a few updates and the tool is a bit more stable now.  tested regularly on 7500 files at a 50% speed improvement over firebase-cli .  Give it a go https://github.com/tonymet/gcloud-go

• concurrent & incremental uploads. Only modified files are uploaded during release

• uses native authentication / metadata service within the cloud

• multi-core file hashing & compression

• docker image and linux-amd64 binaries available (see below)

• sync 10k files in seconds with fixed memory
• GCS storage downloads
