Test case

Used typescript to produce a JS as Doug advices in one of its videos.
No problem, JS generated perfectly.

But when I try to serve, the functions emulator fails to emulate my _api_ endpoint and generates an _out of range_ error.

Typing:

C:\Program Files\nodejs\project\functions>firebase serve --only functions --debug

Ends with:

! functions: Failed to emulate api

Looks like some timestamp problem, or bigint boundary failure (Windows 7 x64 ?). Or it may be incompability between modules, don't know.

Tried to delete node_modules then reinstall but, nope, same error.

Steps to reproduce

firebase serve --only functions --debug

Were you able to successfully deploy your functions?

Yes, no problem.
Functions succesfully deployed.

Expected behavior

Firebase functions emulator is expected to work.

It is critical for developers to be able to test external calls (outside Google network), like Stripe payments, at free cost, before going to production with a billed infrastructure.

Even for devs that already have a non-free plan, the emulator is important to be able to perform tests faster.

Actual behavior

Firebase functions emulator does not work and ends with an error:

Error while deploying to emulator: RangeError [ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE]: The value of "value" is out of range. It must be >= -2147483648 and <= 2147483647. Received 2185921453

[CodingDoug]

The Cloud Functions emulator doesn't work with node 10 currently.

[jplew]

there's a hacky work-around here: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-tools/issues/770

[dtruffaut]

Fixed by the workaround.

Thanks for pointing me this !
