node.js - sending email through firebase triggers using sendgrid

Question

I am sending email to user using onCreate trigger in firebase.I am using sendgrid templates for sending emails. when a new document is created in the firestore it should trigger the email to the user.

 const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
const sgMail = require('@sendgrid/mail');
const SENDGRID_API_KEY = 'SG.ivqQZKFcSdqONZZ7IRtkjA.1RdSs50..kBaQ';
sgMail.setApiKey(SENDGRID_API_KEY);
exports.firestoreEmail = functions.firestore
.document('userAccount/{userId}')
.onCreate(event => {
  const userID = event.params.userId;

  if (userID === undefined) {
    console.log('userID DOES NOT EXIST')
    // This was a deletion event, we don't want to process this
    return;
  }
else{

    console.log(userID )
    return db.collection('userAccount').doc(userID)
             .get()
             .then(doc => {

                const user = doc.data()

                const msg = {
                    to: 'lekha.saraf@nexivo.co',
                    from: 'lekhasaraf09@gmail.com',
                    subject: 'NewFollower',

                    templateId: '8...............d760e',
                    substitutionWrappers: ['{{', '}}'],
                    substitutions: {
                      name: user.UserName
                      // and other custom properties here
                    }
                };

                return sgMail.send(msg)
            })
            // .then(() => console.log('email sent!') )
          }  // .catch(err => console.log(err) )

        });

The error I am getting is: TypeError: Cannot read property 'userId' of undefined

.onCreate()您有来自该方法的 2 个参数。创建的文档和事件的快照。

exports.firestoreEmail = functions.firestore
  .document('userAccount/{userId}')
  .onCreate((documentSnapshot, event) => {
      const userID = event.params.userId;
      const documentData = documentSnapshot.data();

我不知道是否event.params.userId适用于 Firestore。

如果您需要创建文档的用户的 userId，您可以使用const userID = event.auth.uid。

如果您需要用户的 userId，您将发送邮件给您，应在文档中写入 userId。
