I have been assigned on a task to fetch all tweets from a certain hashtag and send that data to my application. So I decided to use firebase cloud functions, I generated the key needed for the twitter api. I also tested get my homepage using postman status and worked, however my issue now when I test my code on good cloud functions I cant get it to work and the error message when I try this end point:
Error: could not handle the request
https://us-central1-don.cloudfunctions.net/api/
or
https://us-central1-don.cloudfunctions.net/api/statuses/user_timeline
and this is my code on firebase cloud functions
const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
const express = require('express');
const Twitter = require('twitter');
admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
const client = new Twitter({
consumer_key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
consumer_secret: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
access_token_key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
access_token_secret: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
});
const app = express();
/* Express */
app.get('/', function(req,res){
client.get('statuses/user_timeline', {screen_name: 'nodejs', count: 5}, function (error, tweets, response) {
if (!error) {
response.send({ title: 'Express', tweets: tweets })
}
else {
response.send({ error: "this is error: " + error })
}
});
});
// Cloud Function
exports.api = functions.https.onRequest(app)
Hope anyone can suggest any solutions, thanks.
Update: here is my function console where it also throws an error:
api Function execution took 8 ms, finished with status code: 404
api Billing account not configured. External network is not accessible and quotas are severely limited. Configure billing account to remove these restrictions
As mentioned in the comments, you should upgrade to a paid plan, you may find this other Stack Overflow question useful : Cloud Functions for Firebase - Billing account not configured
