Explanation

import google.auth.transport.requests

above line will look for the Google package in pythons default directory in on every machine this behaviour can be different depending on where i is going to look for the installed packages.

Solution: make a lib directory on the root of your project and place the google package in this lib directory, then add ____inti____.py in this lib folder and amend your imports like this

import lib.firebase_admin
import lib.google.auth.transport.requests
import lib.google.oauth2.id_token
from lib.firebase_admin import auth
from lib.firebase_admin import credentials
