Download URL after generating a thumbnail

How can i get an url to download the thumbnail image after it has being uploaded? The code below is used in the example, but i’m not sure how to grab an url from this image.

bucket.upload(tempLocalThumbFile, {
  destination: thumbFilePath
}).then(() => {
  console.log('Thumbnail uploaded to Storage at', thumbFilePath);
});

@rodrigoreal You should be able to use getDownloadURL.

If you want to do it by hand, ammending the following to the beginning of your file path should work (replace <- your-bucket-name-here -> with your actual bucket name):

'https://storage.cloud.google.com/<- your-bucket-name-here ->/' // private prefix for files (requires you to be authed with google)
'https://storage.googleapis.com/<- your-bucket-name-here ->/'; // public prefix (your file must be set to public)

Also, you may want to use the issue template that is provided for this repo, or your issue may be closed.

For others coming to this issue to find a solution, I needed to call .makePublic() on the uploaded file as seen below in order to access the object, and then assign it to an img.src later on:

const projectId = `<your project id from the console project settings>`;
const destination = `<the intended destination for your file>`;

await bucket.upload(tmpFilePath, { 
  destination,
}, (err, file) => {
  if (err) return console.error(err);
  file.makePublic();
});

const storageURL = `https://storage.googleapis.com/${projectId}.appspot.com/${destination}`;
await admin.database().ref(`/pictures/${pictureSlug}`).update({ storageURL });
