getCurrentUser returning null with Nuxt SSR & Emulator

[timdiacon]

I have a profile collection where the id of each doc matches the user uid - I am trying to populate a Pinia store with the profile via the following nuxt plugin:

export default defineNuxtPlugin(async (nuxtApp) => {
  const user = await getCurrentUser();
  if (user) {
    const db = useFirestore();
    const profile = useDocument(doc(db, "profiles", user.uid));
    const userStore = useUserStore();
    userStore.setProfile(profile);
  } else {
    // No user is signed in.
    console.log("No user is signed in.");
  }
});

When I run this locally using a staging firebase project and providing a service worker via the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS env var it all works as expected. However when I run it locally using the emulator getCurrentUser is returning null on the server but then populating as expected on the client.

I also get the following error in the console log:

Unknown Error verifying session cookie Failed to determine project ID: Error while making request: getaddrinfo

I'm unsure whether this is a bug, an issue with SSR / Emulator support or me doing something wrong.

Any advice on whether there is a better way to make the user profile available across the application also welcome :-)

Same issue here

I had the same problem and I was able to fix the issue by setting up my service account

These 2 steps were enough for me! I hope it helps
