All firebase commands throw an error

[krittiyaclark]

I installed npm install -g firebase-tools but every time I run any firebase commands it throws an error.

/Users/krittiyaclark/.nvm/versions/node/v13.6.0/lib/node_modules/firebase-tools/node_modules/universal-analytics/node_modules/uuid/dist/esm-browser/index.js:1
export { default as v1 } from './v1.js';
^^^^^^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export'

    at Object.<anonymous> (/Users/krittiyaclark/.nvm/versions/node/v13.6.0/lib/node_modules/firebase-tools/node_modules/universal-analytics/lib/index.js:3:12)

If I commented these code from
/Users/krittiyaclark/.nvm/versions/node/v13.6.0/lib/node_modules/firebase-tools/node_modules/universal-analytics/node_modules/uuid/dist/esm-browser/index.js:1
out. I can run firebase commands

// export { default as v1 } from './v1.js';
// export { default as v3 } from './v3.js';
// export { default as v4 } from './v4.js';
// export { default as v5 } from './v5.js';

Please help. Thank you!

@krittiyaclark looks like this error:

• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62618543/unexpected-token-export-in-sequelize-uuid
• pkg.exports broken in typescript uuidjs/uuid#466

We depend on the uuid module which some people online claim does not work with Node 13. Can you try using either Node 14 or Node 12?

We generally only test on event-numbered Node releases since those are LTS:

@samtstern Thank you! I updated node --version v14.5.0 and no ERRORs showing again.
