firebase cloud funtions the engine node is incompatible with this module

I've created a firebase cloud functions project which has the following dependencies added by default and the following engines:

"dependencies": {
  "firebase-admin": "^8.0.0",
  "firebase-functions": "^3.1.0"
},
"engines": {
  "node": "8"
}

Whenever I run yarn add I get following error and dependency not added:

error [email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "^8.13.0 || >=10.10.0". Got "8.11.4"

I then try change node engine version to 10 "engines": {"node": "10"}, but now get the following error when I yarn add:

error functions@: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "10". Got "8.11.4"

How to solve this problem?

Use nvm so you can use differents version of node.

When installed you can see all available versiosn with:

$ nvm ls-remote
    v0.1.14
    v0.1.15
    v0.1.16
    v0.1.17
    v0.1.18
...
   v12.13.1
    v13.0.0
    v13.0.1
    v13.1.0
    v13.2.0

Then install the version you need. For example, for version 8:

$ nvm i 8
Downloading https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.16.2/node-v8.16.2-linux-x64.tar.xz...

Now using node v8.16.2 (npm v6.4.1)

Test:

$ node -v

There's a Github issue which addressed the problem you are having. To summarize, you can:

  • run yarn config set ignore-engines true
  • Ensure the versions in node -v and npm -v matches the versions listed in package.json and if not, update to match the intended version

Probably you need to add this to your package.json

"engines": {
    "node": "8" // or "10"
}
