I have a Firebase cloud function which will put the number of views a YouTube video has in it's title. It is a https function so I have to call it every 28 seconds to keep the title as accurate as possible (28 seconds due to usage quotas). So my question is how can I call my function every 28 seconds.

I can't use pub-sub functions that firebase provides because I don't have access to a credit card. Currently I am using cron-job.org to call the function every minute but they don't provide anything more frequent.

I'm using https://cron-job.org/ for a cron job but I have a problem. When running the script manually (for example, a script that gets data from a csv file), it works but if I run the script through that cron job, it fails because of that 30 seconds max_execution_time I guess.

But the problem is that in my script I'm already using:

I am trying to setup a small webshop and firebase functions is the tool that I use to safely create and update the payment node in firebase.

The user is redirected to a 3rd party payment service when the payment is created.

With these two functions I am experiencing a so called "cold start".

When a function is cold and needs to be warmed up, it takes > 1min for the user to be redirected and to have both functions well executed. When the function is warmed up, everything is working fine and times are less then 5s, which I find acceptable when the user gets redirected to another website.

I would like to have them warm all the time, so these are the options that I consider:

1. Using cron-jobs(https://cron-job.org/en) to trigger every 6 min a function so that they don't run cold.
2. Write better code.
3. All other ideas are more than welcome!

The first option isn't waterproof, some times it runs cold and sometimes not. And writing better code, well that's where I need help. Here is the most important function:

I am trying to run a NodeJS cron at a set interval using cron-job.org, but they don't have any documentation about how to actually run the script.

Basically the service visits a URL that you provide at a set interval, but I am specifically confused about what kind of code I can put on the endpoint (specifically what type of code will actually run). Can someone provide an example of what I would put at the endpoint URL?

For context: I have a cron-job.org that fires an https function in my firebase project.

In this function, I have to go through all docs inside a collection and update a counter (each doc might have a different counter value). If the counter reaches a limit, I'll update another collection (independent from the first one), and delete the doc entry that reached the limit. If the counter is not beyond the limit, I simply update the doc entry with the updated counter value.

I tried adapting examples from the documentation, tried using transactions, batch, but I'm not sure how to proceed. According to transactions' description, that's the way to go, but examples only show how to edit a single doc.

This is what I have (tried adapting a realtime db sample):

I'm trying to build a scheduling system to run a firebase cloud function after 60 minutes from a specific event in the database. After some lectures I know that firebase has not a built in schedule system. Indeed, what I have to do is to schedule an http request when a specific document in firestore is updated. Someone recommends me https://cron-job.org/en/, anyone knows if with this service I can schedule automatically some http requests when a document in firestore is updated?

Hello I'm making some Weather info iOS application

I try to make Push Notification by Firebase

Is this possible to make? This is my Scenario

1. When user installed and launch app, they set the time when they want to get push notification

2. There are limited time options they can choose

   1. Everyday 8 a.m (Today's weather)
   2. Everyday 12 p.m (Today's weather)
   3. Everyday 10 p.m (Tomorrow's weather)

3. and i do cron job each for option by cron-job.org

4. if 'A', 'B' users set their time on 'Everyday 8 a.m',the result of cron job(Call API and send Data) send to 'A' and 'B'

I wonder is it possible when user set their time and that time is saved at server and Finally grouping User(Device) by time and send different data at different time Push Notification
