What's that?

Firecdn is a low latancy cdn using firebase, You can directly upload a file (Authenticated) and share it on internet. It will be pretty much handy and very fast because you can choose your server's location.

Deploy

Deploy is not quite simple. But if you are a tech lover you will definitely enjoy. Deployment is divided into two parts.

1. Setup Firebase

Setup the Firebase is simple. But firebase storage comes without access-control-allow-origin header (CORS) that's why we have to setup the cors.

• Open Firebase Console
• Create a New Project (Click on Add Project)
• Give a Name, and setup the project
• We have set write on storage only from the authenticated request, that's why we have to setup Firebase Auth. So, click on Authentication in Dashboard and hit Get Started
• Enable Email/Password method in Sign-in providers
• Click on users and add an user by entering Email & Password
• Copy User UID of that created user
• Now in Project's Dashboard click on Storage, Click on Get Started
• Click on Next for security rules (Will change it later)
• For cloud storage location, Setup your nearest location (Check this out) and hit Next
• Copy the bucket url for later (starts with gs://)
• Click on Rules and replace it with (Don't forget to add the Copied UID) 👇

rules_version = '2';
service firebase.storage {
  match /b/{bucket}/o {
    match /{allPaths=**} {
      allow read, write: if request.auth.uid == "copied_uid";
    }
  }
}

• Now everything is ready to go, Now have to setup the cors. For that got to shell.cloud.google.com (Same Account which is used in Firebase)
• Paste the script in terminal 👇

curl -sSL https://git.io/JqTL4 | bash

• It will ask for bucket-url (Previously Copied), Paste that and hit enter and you are ready to go

2. Setup Website

• Firstly fork this Repo (Also give a Star 😁)
• Open Firebase again, go to that created project and click add an web app
• Give any name to it
• It will give you some configuration scripts, Only copy this part like below

var firebaseConfig = {
    apiKey: "AIzaSyB9eBs10atrgeGAI-WQm6UO72lhzmT-vpo",
    authDomain: "thefirecdn.firebaseapp.com",
    projectId: "thefirecdn",
    storageBucket: "thefirecdn.appspot.com",
    messagingSenderId: "707022422419",
    appId: "1:707022422419:web:b51d29ade5652390246866"
  };

• Edit firebase_config.js
• Replace with the copied script in marked place
• Now you can host the website using Vercel / Netlify / Github Pages etc.
