Functions-samples: functions: Cannot start emulator.
Hi, I'm unable to emulate my functions. It shows following error:
Cannot start emulator. Error: Cannot find module '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/firebase-tools/node_modules/grpc/src/node/extension_binary/grpc_node.node'
Is it a bug or is there any fault in my firebase-tool setup?

Hey @nhathiwala,
I never came accross this in my setup. Maybe try de-installing and re-installing firebase-tools just in case :)

same sh*t here... I uninstalled and reinstalled firebase-tools but nothing happened...
I tried it on Windows 10 built in linux bash.

@tzs007 It seems like there's an issue with gRPC, which is a separate (also Google driven) library. Can you try running
npm install -g grpc
And see if that completes successfully? There may have been an issue installing this module that was lost in other noise when you installed firebase-tools. If there are errors when installing grpc, can you file an issue at https://github.com/grpc/grpc and reference this one?
