Firebase-admin-node: Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'child_process' in 'C:\......\node_modules\google-auth-library\build\src\auth

[iamniteshjangir]

recently I'm working with firebase-admin and I encounter an issue related to google auth( i think the issue is related to firebase admin) :

My block of code which cause error:

// idToken comes from the client app
    admin.auth().verifyIdToken(idToken)
    .then(function(decodedToken) {
      let uid = decodedToken.uid;
    }).catch(function(error) {
      console.log(error);
    });

errors are:

as I experienced issue is something related to webpack or google-auth but I don't what is the actual issue.

i alreday check this issue but not got any solution.

I'm new in angular if I did some mistake please correct me.

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

You can't use the Admin SDK on client-side web frameworks like Angular. It's only for server-side use.

Hey @hiranya911 thank you for your response. I just want to know that is there any way ( in the client-side like angular) to refresh the firebase id token which got expired after 1 hour. I'm using firebase login.
If yes can you please give me some hint or any link would be appreciated.

[hiranya911]

If you're using Firebase client SDKs to authenticate users, they handle automatic refreshing of the ID tokens to keep the auth session alive.
