How do I "Please specify these environment variables: GCLOUD_PROJECT FIREBASE_EMULATOR_HUB"?

See original GitHub issue

Upon trying to run:

firebase emulators:exec --project sample --only database,firestore 'npm start'

I get:

...
i  Running script: npm start

> firebase-tools-ui@0.1.0 start /mnt/c/Users/varunarora/Code/firebaseui/firebase-tools-ui
> react-scripts start

Please specify these environment variables: GCLOUD_PROJECT FIREBASE_EMULATOR_HUB
(Are you using firebase-tools@>=7.14.0 with `--project your-project`?)

I just installed firebase-tools, so got version 7.15.0. Do I need to install a lower version?

I tried to export the env vars to values EMULATOR_HUB_ENV="FIREBASE_EMULATOR_HUB" and GCLOUD_PROJECT="sample" to no avail (unless there is a fancier node way to set these variables so they are picked up by react-scripts start).

Closing since this is actually an issue with firebase-tools and the fix has been merged to master there.

Oh and by the way, please use the latest firebase-tools for this project. Try this before the debugging steps above: npm install -g firebase-tools@latest (if you installed it through npm).
