Package path ./standalone is not exported from package database-compat

Background

Hello everyone, I’ve just installed the admin SDK and it’s bringing me the following error:

error - ./node_modules/firebase-admin/lib/app/firebase-namespace.js:106:0
Module not found: Package path ./standalone is not exported from package D:\NewRepos\1d3a\node_modules\@firebase\database-compat (see exports field in D:\NewRepos\1d3a\node_modules\@firebase\database-compat\package.json)

Import trace for requested module:
./node_modules/firebase-admin/lib/default-namespace.js
./node_modules/firebase-admin/lib/index.js
./lib/firebaseAdminSdk.ts

I’ve found this StackOverflow post regarding this, but he has not gotten answers. The only other information I have on this error is that this warning comes up when checking the relevant package’s package.json file:

Relevant Code:

import { initializeApp, apps, app } from 'firebase-admin';
import { credential } from "firebase-admin"

var firebaseAdminAccount = require("../serviceAccount.json");

var FbApp : app.App = null;

if(!apps.length)
{
  FbApp = initializeApp({
    credential: credential.cert(firebaseAdminAccount)
  })
}

if(FbApp === null)
{
  FbApp = apps[0];
}

export default FbApp;

This code is for getting the admin SDK in my backend, and not trying to initialize it twice. It’s important to note, this crashes at the imports, and not the code itself.

does anyone know how to fix this? I cannot run my site because of this.

Environment

OS: Windows 10 Firebase SDK Ver: ^11.0.1 Firebase Product: auth, but happens at initialization. Node.js: v18.7.0 NPM: v8.15.0

Hi, I have recently realized that next.js middleware runs on V8, which firebase-admin cannot run at. I thought the middleware was node.js and therefor would run fine. Either way, now I gotta figure out how to run authorization before API call code all over again. Thanks for the comment though

JUST FYI,

this is actually an issue with Next JS’s middleware: https://www.reddit.com/r/Firebase/comments/sbhg4b/firebase_and_nextjs_middleware_for_authentication/
