Separate dev and prod Firebase environment

Question

I am considering using Firebase as MBaaS, however I couldn't find any reliable solution to the following problem:

I would like to set up two separate Firebase environments, one for development and one for production, but I don't want to do a manual copy of features (eg. remote configuration setup, notification rules, etc.) between the development and production environment.

Is there any tool or method I can rely on? Setting up remote configuration or notification rules from scratch can be a daunting task and too risky.

Any suggestions? Is there a better approach than having two separate environments?

Before you post another answer to the question which explains how to set up separate Firebase accounts: it is not the question, read it again. The question is: how to TRANSFER changes between separate dev and prod accounts or any better solution than manually copy between them.

Answer 1

If you are using firebase-tools there is a command firebase use which lets you set up which project you are using for firebase deploy

firebase use --add will bring up a list of your projects, select one and it will ask you for an alias. From there you can firebase use alias and firebase deploy will push to that project.

In my personal use, I have my-app and my-app-dev as projects in the Firebase console.
