How to change Firebase project directory


I have installed Firebase hosting project into my machine by referring following docs:

https://firebase.google.com/docs/hosting/

Now, I want to change the location of my project directory. Wha should I do for this?

Till now I have tried by relogin and re-initialize the project but it does not give option to specify directory again.


Solution

  • Go to the file called firebase.json located in the root of the project and change the field called public in hosting to the directory you want.

    { 
    "database": {
        "rules": "database.rules.json"
      },
      "hosting": {
        "public": "public", <------ This points to directory
        "ignore": [
          "firebase.json",
          "**/.*",
          "**/node_modules/**"
        ],
        "rewrites": [
          {
            "source": "**",
            "destination": "/index.html"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
