One more way to add the image to Database using Cloud Function to track every uploaded image and store it in Database.
exports.fileUploaded = functions.storage.object().onChange(event => {
const object = event.data; // the object that was just uploaded
const contentType = event.data.contentType; // This is the image Mimme type\
// Exit if this is triggered on a file that is not an image.
if (!contentType.startsWith('image/')) {
console.log('This is not an image.');
return null;
}
// Get the Signed URLs for the thumbnail and original image.
const config = {
action: 'read',
expires: '03-01-2500'
};
const bucket = gcs.bucket(event.data.bucket);
const filePath = event.data.name;
const file = bucket.file(filePath);
file.getSignedUrl(config, function(err, fileURL) {
console.log(fileURL);
admin.database().ref('images').push({
src: fileURL
});
});
});
