Prerender plugin to cache responses in Firebase
Run this from within your Prerender server directory:
$ npm install prerender-firebase-cache --saveconst prerender = require('prerender');
const firebaseCache = require('prerender-firebase-cache');
const serviceAccount = require('./serviceAccountKey.json');
const databaseURL = 'https://<yourDatabaseURL>.firebaseio.com';
const server = prerender();
server.use(firebaseCache(serviceAccount, databaseURL, '1d'));
server.start();curl http://localhost:3000/https://www.example.com/A GET request will check Firebase for a cached copy. If a cached copy is found and is not expired yet, it will return that. Otherwise, it will make the request to your server and then persist the HTML to the Firebase database.
A POST request will skip the Firebase cache. It will make a request to your server and then persist the HTML to the Firebase database. The POST is meant to update the cache.
You'll need to sign up with Firebase Console and download the service account JSON file and get the database URL to pass as parameters for this plugin as example above.
Warning! Your service account JSON should be kept private and you'll be charged for all files uploaded to Firebase.
The 3rd parameter is a string represents when will the cache expire. It accepts day or hour as the unit. For example 1d or 8h.
