Steps to reproduce

Literally deploying a standard cloud function from the tutorial on the docs, already gives this result.

Expected behavior

Not this :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

[mbleigh]

Can you please follow the instructions from the error message and run:

npm i --save firebase-functions@latest

inside your functions folder? If you're still having problems after that, can you paste in your package.json from your functions folder?

[RickjdeJong]

@mbleigh Thank you so much!

I already tried running this but in my main folder, not the functions folder!

Thanks for clearing that up :smile: :+1:

[gang018]

@mbleigh Thank you very much, worked for me! 👍

[hyzhak]

tried npm i --save firebase-functions@latest and it doesn't work for me :(

[laurenzlong]

@hyzhak unless your error message looks identical to the one above, you probably have a different issue. Please update firebase-tools by running npm i -g firebase-tools and if that doesn't work, file a new issue.

ON WINDOWS

I had a problem. node and npm can give you a real nightmare if they dont much. Make sure that

• node version is 8.4.0
• npm version is 5.3.0
  Thats a perfect match for node and npm.

1. to check your version for node run node --version

2. to check your npm version run npm --version

if they dont match as above, uninstall node and downgrade your npm version like ave explained above.
when you have set them like above.
From there you can now run your 'npm install -g firebase-tools'

[Lexuanduy]

my package.json:
{
"name": "sample-firebase-auth",
"version": "0.0.1",
"dependencies": {
"firebase-admin": "5.9.0",
"firebase-functions": "0.8.1"
}
}

my index.js :
const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const admin = require('firebase-admin');

admin.initializeApp(functions.config().firebase);
exports.helloAuth = functions.auth.user().onCreate(event => {
const user = event.data; // The firebase user
const id = user.uid;
const email = user.email;

return admin.database().ref("/users/"+id+"/info/status").set("ok");

});

My error:
Firebase config variables are not available. Please use the latest version of the Firebase CLI to deploy this function.
please help me!

@Lexuanduy it looks like you have the same issue; do npm i -s firebase-functions in your functions directory as noted above. If you're still having issues with the latest code, please open a new issue.
