[SOLVED - see at the end please]

[EDITED]

I have the following source:

index.js:

functions = require('firebase-functions');

admin = require('firebase-admin');



globals = require('./globals');

.....

admin.initializeApp();



exports.gateway = functions.https.onCall((data, context) => {

   .....

   return globals.dumpItemName(1);

});



exports.POST_gateway = functions.https.onRequest((req, res) => {

   .....

   return globals.dumpItemName(1);

});    





globals.dumpItemName(1);

globals.js:

....

ITEM_NAMES = new Map()

   .set(1, 'item1')

   .set(2, 'item2');

....

getMapValue = function(map, key) {

   let value = map.get(key);

   if (value === undefined) {

       throw new Error('Missing value for key ' + key);

   }

   return value;

}

....

dumpItemName = function(key) {

    console.log(getMapValue(ITEM_NAMES, key));

}



exports.dumpItemName = dumpItemName;

I'm facing the following problem:

1. If I run/debug it locally by F5 it executes fine and dumps the expected value.



2. 
   

   If I try to deploy it by firebase deploy --only functions
   and then call via postman an https.onRequest(...) or https.onCall(....) function which tries to do the same:

   
   
   

   globals.dumpItemName(1);

   
   

it fails with 'Missing value for key 1'

So I guess when I run it locally with F5 it executes index.js like a program and loads required modules and also run the code in them - so the Map in globals.js is initialized.

But when I deploy it via firebase deploy --functions only it does not execute the code.

So what should I do in order to have Map initialized after deploy ?

[SOLVED - THE REASON FOR THE "PROBLEM"]

Extremely dummy of my side.

Obviously for some of the local tests
(I have by now 10 end-to-end test scenario functions) I've put in index.js the following piece of code:

  //!!! JUST FOR TEST - REMOVE IT !!!

  ITEM_NAMES = new Map()

    .set(globals.ITEM_TEST, 'test');

  //!!! JUST FOR TEST - REMOVE IT !!!

so this map was redeclared with just one value in it. and the value of globals.ITEM_TEST is 200.
and it was used in one temporary test scenario function.

And just bad coincidences:

1. obviously I was too tired and forgot about it.




2. my other local tests were commented and that's why the local run was successful - in this temporary scenario, only this value was used.




3. I've decided to deploy in this exact moment. And none of the values I used in my onCall() or onRequest() functions used globals.ITEM_TEST (in real and in dummy both)

So it is...
Sorry for bothering. There is no problem in fact.
