Hello again! Still exploring the correct way of using Typesense with Firebase by deploying it in a Kubernetes cluster in GKE. There seems to be no full guide of how to accomplish this, though, so thought I'd start a new thread on the process. I'd assume it would be the following: 1. (Modify and) Run the typesense-kubernetes yaml script in gcloud/GKE thus creating the cluster and deploying Typesense. ◦ Is running this script equivalent with executing the instructions for Docker, where the API key is set? ◦ Otherwise, where is the API key set in the yaml script? Is it equivalent with the password in the “containers” section? 2. (From Firebase plugin instructions) Set up Typesense collections. ◦ Should these directly mirror the Firebase collections to be indexed? 3. Run the Firebase plugin once for each individual Firebase collection. 4. Use provided client libraries to search the Firebase collections with the Typesense cluster in GKE. In general, Is this the correct way of doing it? Am I missing any step? Thanks, Christian

@Christian 1. There was more recent discussion on how to successfully run Typesense on k8s: https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/203#issuecomment-1045209775 2. The field names should match, but you can name the collections differently
Is this the correct way of doing it?
Yup.
