Firebase Admin Module not found: 'dns'

Question

I just installed the Firebase Admin SDK with "npm install firebase-admin --save" and see the error on "npm start". Is there any dependency- that I missed?

Failed to compile.

Error in ./~/firebase-admin/~/isemail/lib/isemail.js Module not found: 'dns' in C:\webroot\node_modules\firebase-admin\node_modules\isemail\lib

@ ./~/firebase-admin/~/isemail/lib/isemail.js 45:10-24

I do not know what Firebase Admin SDK is, but when you miss 'dns' module, you can install it by 'npm i dns' — Artem Dudkin
You may be right, I am just wondering, is 'DNS' a dependency in this firebase admin SDK. I did not see any prerequisite in installation process. — Sithu
Have you found a solution to this? I'm running into the same issue. npm i dns doesn't help — Alec Sibilia
Yes, I found something alternative. Firebase Admin does not work on browser base, firebase provided an alternative called "Functions". Firebase Admin modules can call inside the functions. firebase.google.com/docs/functions — Sithu

It does not work in the browser, but if for some reason you have to access all the data at once, take a look at this: https://github.com/taptalk/fireman
