Please check your firebase version to see whether you are using Firebase v9, the new version has some syntax breaking change than v8. This may caused the package not exported issue.

$ firebase --version

I guess this tutorial use firebase v8, you can install this version by following command:

$ npm install -g firebase-tools@8.20.0
$ npm i firebase@8.2.3

Or if you prefer to use firebase v9, please refer the breaking changes below and change the tutorial code on your own.

• https://firebase.google.com/docs/web/modular-upgrade
• https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/js#version_800_-_october_26_2020

Hi @elnatanitzan,

What's your firebase-admin package version? I'm using 8.10.0 and it works for me.

@luoxufeiyan

Finally after twice I did uinstall and reinstall for versions 8.2, and then npm update Everything works fine for me.
Thanks

you can use

const firebase = require('firebase/compat/app');

to use newer versions of firebase and being compatible with old ones too :)

Also having imported:

require('firebase/compat/auth')

you must replace all lines where you use:

firebase.auth()...

for

const auth = firebase.auth()

in order to have something like this:

auth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(user.email, user.password) ...
