DIRECTORY="./STORAGE"
firebase emulators:start --import $DIRECTORY --export-on-exit $DIRECTORY $@

The above works just fine to export the default database, but that’s not the one I have in use. A custom database is being used instead for development and I’d like to persist all that storage to resume where I last left off.

Would this be automated behaviour where ALL information gets exported? If so, how come the custom database always comes back as empty? Should I do export only instead of on-exit maybe the shutdown is somehow interrupting the save?

Or is non default database simply not supported for exit?
