config = {

    "databaseURL": "https://YOU-PROJECT-NAME.firebaseio.com",
    "storageBucket": "YOU-PROJECT-NAME.appspot.com",
    "tls": {
        "rejectUnauthorized": False
        }
    }

url = 'example.com/index.exe'
assetsUrl = 'example.com/assets.zip'

myUpdater = updater.Update(config, url, 'index', '/program/version', debugPath='C:/Users/user/Documents/Python/Updater', displayErrorMessages=True, autoUpdate=False, assetsFolder=True, assetsFolderUrl=assestUrl, updateAssetsArg=2)

myUpdater.checkUpdate()

#Rest of your code
```

## **Use with pyinstaller**
When you want to convert the python file to an executable using py installer, you need additional hooks to use firebase and gcloud. For that you need to create a new python file at some directory NAMED 'hook-gcloud.py' with the following code:

```python
from PyInstaller.utils.hooks import copy_metadata
datas = copy_metadata('gcloud')
```

When you want to convert the file into an executable you have to add the argument '--additional-hooks-dir _the directory to the hook-gcloud.py file_'. 

Example:

```
pyinstaller --onfeile --additional-hooks-dir C:\Users\user\hooks index.py
```
