I'm trying to set up GitLab CI/CD to deploy to Firebase. I've looked at a few tutorials online and they all say basically the same thing - install firebase tools then deploy with an auth token. However, when I get to this step I get a permission denied message, as shown below.
My .gitlab-ci.yml:
image: node:latest
stages:
- build
- deploy
app-build:
stage: build
script:
- npm install
- npm run build
deploy_production:
stage: deploy
environment: Production
only:
- master
script:
- npm install -g firebase-tools
- firebase use --token $FIREBASE_DEPLOY_KEY
- firebase deploy -m "Pipeline $CI_PIPELINE_ID, build $CI_BUILD_ID" --non-interactive --token $FIREBASE_DEPLOY_KEY
And then this is the error I get:
$ npm install -g firebase-tools
