Firebase javascript sdk Docker container error whilst building react app

[Jordy Koppen]

since this morning I'm encountering an error in the build process of my React application using Bitbucket Pipelines. Nothing has changed to my applications other than a few tweaks that has should not trigger this error.

When I try to build my app locally I don't get any errors whatsoever. Beneath you can find the error NPM throws in Pipelines.

Hi Jordy,

Looks like an npm packaging issue, but promise-polyfill is certainly registered. Maybe the environment is using an alternate registry?

Another thought: Is it possible to ssh into the remote machine and try the npm command manually? If so, you might installing with --verbose or grab the npm debug log for some additional details.

I'm getting this same error in my angular app
```ERROR in ./~/firebase/app/shared_promise.js

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'promise-polyfill' in '/Users/tmanicsi/Documents/PROGRESS/DEVREL/projects/blog-posts/attack-authorization/node_modules/firebase/app'

 @ ./~/firebase/app/shared_promise.js 22:35-62

 @ ./~/firebase/app/firebase_app.js

 @ ./~/firebase/app.js

 @ ./~/firebase/firebase-browser.js

 @ ./~/angularfire2/angularfire2.js

 @ ./~/angularfire2/index.js

 @ ./src/app/app.module.ts

 @ ./src/main.ts

 @ multi webpack-dev-server/client?http://localhost:4200 ./src/main.ts```

I'm getting this locally and when I try to build. I started with a clean app from the angular-cli & immediately get this error when adding & initializing firebase. I've tried clearing `node_modules` & re-installing, as well as installing `promise-polyfill` on it's own. No obvious errors & no solutions ☹️

Appreciative of any insight or updates!

Firebase JavaScript SDK 3.7.8 dropped promise-polyfill as an npm package peer dependency, for some reason. It would appear it's still required. 

As a workaround, either install promise-polyfill, or downgrade firebase.

npm install promise-polyfill --save-exact

or

npm install fire...@3.7.7 --save-exact

Hopefully this gets fixed upstream in the next firebase npm package release!

Thank you! Worked like a charm. Before posting this I had tried installing `promise-polyfill` into Firebase's `node_modules` folder 😝

I definitely hope this gets fixed. Again, thanks for the quick response. Much appreciated!
