const functions = require("firebase-functions");
const admin = require("firebase-admin");
const googleServiceAccountKey = require("./serviceAccount.json");
admin.initializeApp({
  credential: admin.credential.cert(googleServiceAccountKey),
});
const {google} = require("googleapis");
const axios = require("axios");

exports.androidSubscriptionHandler = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => {

  // caputre the data from the request
  const {purchaseObject, type} = request.body;
  functions.logger.info("trying to handle " + type + " for the follow purchaseObject");
  functions.logger.info(JSON.stringify(purchaseObject));
  // get the token and subscription id from the request
  const purchaseToken = purchaseObject.purchaseToken;
  const subscriptionID = purchaseObject.productId;
  // set your package id
  const packageID = "edu.fit.my.jgibb2018.pob";

  const returnTheResponse = (data) => {
    functions.logger.log("returning the response" + JSON.stringify(data));
    response.status(200).send(data);
  };

  const acknowledgeSubscription = (err, tokens) => {
    functions.logger.info(`
    Attempting to acknowledge subscription ${subscriptionID}\n
    your access token for a manual retry ${tokens.access_token}\n
    your purchase object ${JSON.stringify(purchaseObject)}\n\n
    `);

    const config = {
      method: "post",
      url: `https://androidpublisher.googleapis.com/androidpublisher/v3/applications/${packageID}/purchases/subscriptions/${subscriptionID}/tokens/${purchaseToken}:acknowledge`,
      headers: {
        "Authorization": `Bearer ${tokens.access_token}`,
      },
    };
    functions.logger.info("acknowledge config" + JSON.stringify(config));
    axios(config)
        .then(function(r) {
          returnTheResponse("Your transaction has been completed");
        })
        .catch(function(e) {
          functions.logger.warn("an error occured while acknowledging the subscription");

          functions.logger.error(JSON.stringify({error: e}));

          returnTheResponse({error: e.data, status: e.status, message: e.message});
        });
  };

  const verifySubscription = (err, tokens) => {
    functions.logger.info("verify function");
    const config = {
      method: "get",
      url: `https://androidpublisher.googleapis.com/androidpublisher/v3/applications/${packageID}/purchases/subscriptions/${subscriptionID}/tokens/${purchaseToken}`,
      headers: {
        "Authorization": `Bearer ${tokens.access_token}`,
      },
    };
    functions.logger.info(config.url);
    axios(config)
        .then(function(r) {
          functions.logger.info("verify success" + JSON.stringify(r.data));
          returnTheResponse(r.data);
        })
        .catch(function(e) {
          returnTheResponse(JSON.stringify({error: e.data, status: e.status, message: e.message}));
        });
  };

  const getAccessToken = () => {
    const jwtClient = new google.auth.JWT(
        googleServiceAccountKey.client_email,
        null,
        googleServiceAccountKey.private_key,
        ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/androidpublisher"],
        null,
    );
    try {
      if (type == "subscriptionAcknowledge") {
        jwtClient.authorize(acknowledgeSubscription);
      } else if (type == "subscriptionVerify") {
        jwtClient.authorize(verifySubscription);
      }
    } catch (error) {
      functions.logger.error(error);
      response.status(500).send("issue getting getting auth", JSON.stringify(error));
    }
  };

  getAccessToken();
  });

6. Clear the default and paste the copied code into the code

7. Update the package.json file

copy and paste over the default text
{
  "name": "sample-http",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "dependencies": {
     "axios": "^0.26.0",
     "googleapis": "^97.0.0",
     "firebase-functions": "^3.18.0",
     "firebase-admin": "^10.0.2"
   }
}
