Version info

node: 12.16.0

firebase-functions: 3.6.0

firebase-tools: 8.1.1

firebase-admin: 8.10.0

Test case

firebase deploy --only functions:myFunction doesn't find the function in the index file and thus doesn't deploy it without throwing any error.

Steps to reproduce

init firebase function in a new project
Made a test deploy of the template "helloWorld" function and it deploys correctly and works correctly. Made another function "myFunction" and tried to deploy it but got the message
"! functions: the following filters were specified but do not match any functions in the project: myFunction"
Tried to swap names between the two Functions and it deploys correctly. Long story short i'm apparently able to deploy only a function name helloWorld

Expected behavior

should be able to deploy functions with any name, not only helloWorld...as i said the project already has other functions properly deployed

Actual behavior

This is the output if i try to deploy the template function after adding an "y" to the end just to change the name

Were you able to successfully deploy your functions?

No

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Could you rerun firebase deploy --only functions:myFunction --debug of the function that is failing and post the output here?

Also, I see that you're deploying a scheduled function - is that the function that is failing?

@davidevaliante if you're still experiencing this problem and want to continue the discussion just leave a comment here and we are happy to re-open this.

Happens when I do this:

//index.js
const functions = require("firebase-functions");

exports.Obby = require("./Obby.js");

// ./Obby.js
const functions = require("firebase-functions");

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

});

Make sure your are building the functions project before deploying
"build": 'tsc'

@gillern You have to use dots to specify sub groups 😊
firebase deploy --only functions:Obby.GetObby
