I am trying to automate my google cloud project creation using gcloud and firebase cli.
When I try to create a firebase app using 'firebase apps:create' command, I get an error telling me I need to go to the google cloud console to enable the Firebase Management API for the the project. Not manually going to the google cloud console is EXACTLY what I am trying to avoid my writing this command line script.
Is there are way I can enable this API for a project from the command line?
You can enable any Google API|service using Google's gcloud CLI.
NOTE This is distinct to the
firebaseCLI.
You should be able to:
PROJECT=[[YOUR-PROJECT]]
gcloud services enable firebase.googleapis.com \
--project=${PROJECT}
Or, if you replace {PROJECT} with the value in the URL, you can browse the service management page and enable it if necessary:
https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/firebase.googleapis.com?project=${PROJECT}
There are several ways to determine the service (and URI) names.
You can:
gcloud services list --available --project=${PROJECT}
