am I the only one who thinks that Jeff has taught a text to speech model his voice and he has been using that in his videos for some time?

For those wondering about the cost of the count() firestore function, it’s going to cost 1 document read for every 1000 documents the function reads, so it’s very cheap to use. If your wondering where I found this, a firebase developer answered this question during a q&a at the summit event

Omg I remember 4 year ago creating a project and could find any simple way to count documents. Can’t believe they took so long for this 😅

The collection size is awesome, firestore finally learned how to count

Note: Firebase functions are not included in the free plan anymore, you still get 2 million function invocations for free but you have to upgrade to their pay as you go plan. You can't set a limit on the number of invocations, you can only set notifications for a certain $ budget. So if you wrote some bad code, your card might rack up some serious charges. One such example is having a firestore trigger on a document update, but this trigger modifies the document again. This type of pattern will cause an infinite chain of function invocations.

During #AskFirebase they said that COUNT() would cost one read per 1000 documents!

Counting documents is literally the biggest reason why i use MongoDB over Firebase on my projects. Implementing pagination without knowing your document count is hell and I've implemented several ways to circumvent it (even writing to a JSON file every time a document is deleted/created!). This certainly levels the playing field now. Hopefully the aggregation queries also allow us to chain filtering, because that's also something that MongoDB does better.

Literally so awesome! These features have been something I wanted for so long!!!

Thank you so much! I hadn't had the time to watch the summit

Very cool! Looking forward to the new courses.

Thanks for keeping us updated Jeff

I'm a bit disappointed they still didn't add search. Google, the search engine company, is yet to add search to firebase. I do see potential with extensions though, maybe the people could provide what google seemingly can't.

When i used Firebase for a project, i found it to be so easy and cool. Like real time updates, authentication and so much more that i wondered why someone would write a backend for a small application but then i found that it couldn't even count ffs. Atleast that is no longer an issue.

Amazing!! each time getting better and better

Wow this is the update I have been waiting for

This even fortifies my earlier thought that this channel is just disguised Firebase ad channel

Great compilation!

Support for Next is huge addition

Love from Kolkata, India. You are awesome Jeff! ❤️❤️❤️

OMG the hours I have spent writing and testing count functions. Finally!!!

Ok but still no default full text search without extensions...

The main problem in my opinion about ttl is you need an explicit timestamp for the expiration date. When you use server timestamp you can't really add a duration on FieldValue, you have to rewrite the expiration date Incase you use FieldValue. It would be great if they gave an option to specify a timestamp and a duration, so that we don't have to add a separate timestamp

i really apreciate your help with dowloanding this software

jam packed with info!!! the only channel I actually slow down to 0.75x

As soon as I joined the firebase summit, I knew Jeff's new video 😄

wow this is some powerful stuff. I’m so excited! Always a fan of firebase and fireship. Jeff please make a video of Angular universal and firebase hosting please please 🙏.

I can't believe how much time I invested in writing my pagination logic because the query does not have a count method to get the query length in total! FINALLYYYYYY!! data.count() has been implemented! thank you jeff for the amazing video thanks firebase for the hard work

This is one of the bases of all time!!!1

Finally I can get rid of my "counters" collection 😱

(One of my favorite walled gardens.)

Go to 1:14:00 of the Summit, I asked the exact question about the cost of aggregation queries. They said you get charged 1 read per 1000 documents counted.

1:33 I heard that 1000 "counts" equals 1 document read on Firebase KZfaq channel... Note: the price is not fractional... If you count 50 "counts" in a query, that equals 1 document.

Blocking as in a non-blocking event. The blocking function has nothing to do with rejecting signups, it has to do with (blocking) the "process" of signing up to run your function before the user is fully created instead of listening on event which would happen AFTER the user signs up. This essentially allows you to ensure all docs are created before the user finishes signing up.

Awesome 😍

Support for SSG and SSR hosting channels is also on the way. Stay tuuuned

Please make a video about how to host the next.js app on firebase with advantages and disadvantages of both

I didn't understand most of it but all this sounds pretty cool. 👍

I can finally get rid of some machinery I have put in place that increment/decrement a value for each collection when I create or delete data. The question is, will we be able to query a collectiom with ordering and pagination? Like get from XXX, order by ZZZ desc, page 0, limit 100 ?

all features are tightly coupled and price tiers on each one of them

And I will see you in the nex .... Going fast

0:44 there is a typo: NEXT IMAGE *OPTIMZATION*

Nice!

COUNT! COUNT! COUNNNNNNNNNNTT!!!! There's something really wrong, when in 2022, I'm excited about a document store offering count functionality.

I’d really love a UI that looks like an excel sheet. Supabase seems to have this.

public extensions is huge ! nice updates however no full text search too bad

hell that's cool!

"Laughs in Django"

Thought about using supabase for my next project but these changes are awesome! So I might stick with firebase 🎉

Will you update the course?

But are those features available on the free tier?

Actually huge update

Awesome news! Now.. if they dont mess with my firebase menu collapsing it automatically I would be really grateful!

wow I just ask him in Twitter about this yesterday

Finally a count? I feel lucky for leaving it alone all these years.

I wonder if some of these features will be available in their REST API

😅quick question how do you manage 2 Accounts + a school?

Do you think the SSR hosting will be possible with Astro SSR as well ? Or it is only specific to next and angular ssr ? Like to access to the users from the astro props and share sessions you showed would be amazing.

Just simply put the code, it works! thanks!

🔥🔥

i have an application built using nextjs but, i can't get currentUser on server side, in firebase docs i cant understand how to get res.locals

Finally, can deploy NextJS apps to firebase hosting.

anything that sounds or looks cool will kost me money!!!!

This is cool but what I really want from firebase is just better performance. The bundle size is too big and should be even more modular. It adds too much overhead to your Lighthouse performance scores, even when you are using the latest versions of firebase/firestore

LOL, quickly getting a count of the number of object in a collection???? It's like we're finally reinventing basic tech from 40 years ago! But hey, at least we get to deal with 20 configuration files! Progress!!!

So with the new doc count feature, I'm going to assume this will make reading a random document a lot easier, is that right or am I thinking about this wrong? Any thoughts are appreciated

🔥

search is still missing.... I thought they were gonna add it.

Great content, But I'm curious about how is this channel different from fireship, because this video could be a "the code report"

When deploying the NextJS app on Firebase with this new hosting, do API routes get deployed as well? I am not sure about it but just wondering. I have a NextJS app which I have deployed using Cloudrun but using all other firebase functionalities so it would be awesome if I can also deploy the whole thing using Firebase hosting.

I'm disappointed that they didn't include full database search 😓

Youre saying we get to finally leave Vercel. Thank god

SSR will also work with nuxt?

I don't know why but my app just stopped loading just 18 hours after its first deployment. I was in a free tier.

nice

Crazy that it took this long to be able to just import or export data, but also crazy that we have to go into the ugly Cloud UI app outside of Firebase

BTW now I hope Google fixes GCP web interface, it's unacceptably lagging..

Why are you the only one on KZfaq how scale code editor enough for conveniently reading code on iPhone 7 screen?

Is firebase hosting + nextjs with ssr free? Since it needs to run server side code will it cost price?

The count function can actually get really expensive. If you have a 1000 users requesting a count of a query, and the number is greater than a 1000, like 10000 let's say, that's 10 reads per user, which means 10000 document reads per user reading a count, at ay time. Assuming an user reads a count of 1 query a day, that's 6 cents every 10 days for showing 1 number greater than 10000 to a 1000 users. If you have 10 numbers like this, that's easily 6 cents a day, or almost $2 a month. If you grow to 10000 users, that's $20 a month.

Still no full text search 😖😖😪

firebase released all this because pocketbase had that cool eye automation

still no support for any other language except for JS for firebase functions.

I heard he coded a custom AI version of himself and flew to the Mars habitat he had remote AI powered robots building these last 6 months. He is sippin on top shelf margaritas in his BioDome reading our comments and chuckling to himself I suspect.

As a new dev with no budget i just desperately want to be able to set a spending limit. I know there's ways to handle it, but it's all a lot more difficult than it is to get going so makes deploying any real app a potential disaster and raises the complexity floor by a lot. I would literally just not be able to pay a large bill, so I can't take the risk that google would forgive it.

If you create a pages/api route in Next.js, how do you access that same endpoint once it's hosted on firebase. Anyone know?

I couldn't care less about whatever the hell Firebase is, but you are hilarious so I'm just gonna watch the video.

What about Nuxt?

Any one suggest me for best tutorial for firebase & React

🙌💯✨

for for for 🤣 Asking for for forever

Has firebase GraphQL now? Dropped it for that reason four years ago

I didn't followed but I have two questions. Is DESC sort implemented already? Are awkward "shallow" security rights still there? Thanks.

I'm waiting the next firebase update in 2028

Firebase is Fire, Google just fired the ship.

from the start of watching fireship to now i always thought firebase was a site Jeff owned but turns out its not

Firebase Summit 2023: We'll be shutting down Firebase within a month.

Vercel may go bankrupt!

sum() function please.

Jeff, you made a man out of me

I love all these Tools but unfortunately you can use pretty much none of them because of EU-GDPR
