Deploying Angular Project to Firebase

Required dependencies

npm install -g firebase-tools  

Let’s start by building the package

ng build --prod  

Next login to firebase via CLI(Command Line Interface)

firebase login  

Above command will ask to sign in to google account and will also ask to grant access to the firebase.

Try firebase login --no-localhost, Incase of the above failure.

Now initialize the project with firebase

firebase init  

Above command will ask you some questions, Select accordingly.

• Choose Hosting by hitting space and then hit enter
• Change public path to angular’s build path (e.g: /dist)
• Single page application - Select Y
• Override index.html - Select N

And finally, enter

firebase deploy  

Deployed!!!

To deploy again with new changes, Simply enter ng build --prod and firebase deploy.
