How can I use Firebase Functions to send FCM to user?

Firebase currently rolled out Firebase Functions to add server side code

Firebase Functions

I was wondering if there could be a way to call FCM notifications through those functions when there is some change in database.

Firebase SDK for Cloud Functions includes the Firebase Admin SDK, you can find an example that we made here Send Firebase Cloud Messaging notifications for new followers

In brief:

const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');
admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);

exports.foo = functions.database.ref('/bar').onWrite(event => {
  const tokens = ...;
  const payload = ...;
  return admin.messaging().sendToDevice(tokens, payload);  
})
