Cannot build next with firebase when serverless mode selected in next.config.js

Bug report

Cannot build next with firebase when serverless mode selected in next.config.js

Describe the bug

While building we get this error if we try to use firebase and serverless mode is turned on.

Error: package.json does not exist at /package.json

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior, please provide code snippets or a repository:

1. Install firebase in your project
2. Set mode:'serverless' in next.config.js
3. Do 'import * as firebase from "firebase/app"' and 'import firebase/firestore' in any page
4. do next build
5. Result: Error: package.json does not exist at /package.json

Expected behavior

I'm expecting this to build. And since Zeit Now 2.0 only allows serverless next deployment this error makes it impossible to use now2.0

System information

• OS: [Windows]
• Version of Next.js: [8.1.0]

I guess I had the same error, what version of firebase-tools do you have? if you have 6.10.0 try to install the 6.8.0.

firebase/firebase-tools#1320

[HelloKashif]

I used 6.10. I’ll try downgrading.

Hey! We'll have official support for Firebase soon, most likely by the end of next week -- just keeping you updated.
