Firebase forgets to make an .ignore file

When deploying my website firebase did not make an ignore file, so instead of uploading 450 file, it was uploading almost 30.000 files and my google cloud crashed.

Hi @Henk_Massink,
Do you mean a .gitignore or .aiexclude ?

No it is .gcloudignore

My project is python with flask and firebase

Greetings from the Netherlands

Ah yes. Python templates should come with a .gcloudignore by default. This is a good bug.

Here’s a starter .gcloudignore template for you if you need one

# This file specifies files that are *not* uploaded to Google Cloud Platform
# using gcloud. It follows the same syntax as .gitignore, with the addition of
# "#!include" directives (which insert the entries of the given .gitignore-style
# file at that point).
#
# For more information, run:
#   $ gcloud topic gcloudignore
#
.gcloudignore
# If you would like to upload your .git directory, .gitignore file or files
# from your .gitignore file, remove the corresponding line
# below:
.git
.gitignore

# Python pycache:
__pycache__/
# Ignored by the build system
/setup.cfg
