在 Firebase 中部署函数时出现未找到 Firebase 错误

Question

I am trying to host a app in firebase and its giving me error that

Error: Error parsing triggers: Cannot find module 'firebase'

Try running "npm install" in your functions directory before deploying.

I have executed npm install command several times but nothing new.

Please help

Answer 1

Cannot find module 'firebase-functions' means that you need to install packages. In your project directory run

$ cd functions
$ npm install

then return back and fire!

$ firebase deploy

Happy coding!

By default, the firebase dependency isn't in your functions/package.json . Instead, you'll find it lists firebase-admin , the specialized server-side Firebase SDK which is the one we recommend using.

If you really do want to use the firebase client-side SDK instead of firebase-admin , you'll want to run npm install --save firebase in your functions/ directory. You should then have a line in your functions/package.json that looks a bit like this:

{
  ...
  "dependencies": {
    "firebase": "^3.7.2",
    ...
  },
  ...
}

Although this is coming late, but it's for those who might face the same issue. This worked for me. I added this to my package.json file in folder function.

 {
  "name": "functions",
  "description": "Cloud Functions for Firebase",
  "dependencies": {
    "firebase-admin": "~5.2.1",
    "firebase-functions": "^0.6.2",
    "mkdirp": "^0.5.1",
    "mkdirp-promise": "^4.0.0"
  },
  "private": true
}

Then run: npm install in folder function

Answer 4

Clean up node_modules,

rm -rf package-lock.json
rm -rf node_modules

Update functions/package.json file with latest or compatible versions of dependencies with your node version and run npm install from functions folder.

Try firebase deploy now. Should be good!
