Google actions

2. The action launches a container with the Firebase CLI preinstalled. It has six configuration tabs:

• Run – here you select the Firebase integration and provide the deployment command
• Environment – if your process requires specific dependencies, you can install them here. The files will stay cached in the container for future pipeline runs
• Settings – here you select the version of Node and Firebase tools, and provide the filesystem and container mount paths
• Variables – here you can add and modify environment variables required by your workflow
• Conditions – here you configure the trigger conditions for which the action will run
• Options – here you define the action's name and behavior on failure and timeout
