Description: Functions to send events and insights to LogSnag. (Not an official extension)
This is not an official Logsnag extension and the author is not associated with LogSnag or Firebase in any manner whatsoever. All trademarks and copyrights belong to the respective companies.
Details: Use this extension to publish events and insights to your LogSnag channel. The extension uses the official LogSnag Node.js library.
You need to have a LogSnag account and get the authentication (Access) token and the project name (refer to the LogSnag documentation for this). When you need to publish an event or insight, simply create a new document in Firestore.
The extension has a cloud function that's triggered whenever a new document is created in the collections specified during installation.
Here's a basic example document write that would trigger this extension to publish an event in LogSnag:
admin.firestore().collection('logsnagEvents').add({
channel: "waitlist",
event: "User Joined",
description: "Email: john@example.com",
icon: "🎉",
tags: {
name: "john doe",
email: "john@example.com",
},
notify: true
})To publish an insight, you would need to write a document in another collection:
admin.firestore().collection('logsnagInsights').add({
title: "User Count",
value: "100",
icon: "👨"
})Before installing this extension, make sure that you've set up a Cloud Firestore database in your Firebase project.
