Run a Firebase CLI command

Run a command, like firebase deploy --only hosting.

Configuring Firebase

Firebase automatically uses the FIREBASE_TOKEN and FIREBASE_PROJECT environment variables when provided.

To retrieve the FIREBASE_TOKEN, run firebase login:ci on your desktop to retrieve your Firebase auth token. Save this as a repository secret in your repository.

The FIREBASE_PROJECT is the project ID, which can usually be found in the .firebaserc file (default attribute). This can be configured in the action instead of a secret.
