Firebase deploy error - Cannot find module 'firebase'

I'm trying to deploy Google Cloud function triggers that trigger from db events, but when I run firebase deploy The functions aren't deployed properly and I get an error saying Error: Cannot find module firebase

When I was first creating the project I could deploy functions without any issues. It's been a few days since I last deployed anything, but now I'm getting this issue on all my functions (not just my trigger functions)

My function:

exports.deleteNotificationOnUnlike = functions
    .region("us-central1")
    .firestore.document("likes/{id}")
    .onDelete((snapshot) => {
        return db
            .doc(`/notifications/${snapshot.id}`)
            .delete()
            .catch((err) => console.error(err));
    });

Package.json

{
  "name": "functions",
  "description": "Cloud Functions for Firebase",
  "scripts": {
    "serve": "firebase serve --only functions",
    "shell": "firebase functions:shell",
    "start": "npm run shell",
    "deploy": "firebase deploy --only functions",
    "logs": "firebase functions:log"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": "8"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "busboy": "^0.3.1",
    "firebase-admin": "^8.0.0",
    "firebase-functions": "^3.1.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "firebase-functions-test": "^0.1.6"
  },
  "private": true
}

Expecting the functions to deploy successfully but getting this error:

Error messages from firebase:

Code in file index.js can't be loaded.
Did you list all required modules in the package.json dependencies?

I've seen some posts where people were missing some modules and needed to run an npm i XXX inside the functions folder, but I haven't seen any instances where it was saying that the firebase module couldn't be found, and I'm not sure what changes from my last successful deployment, or what module I might be missing.

Figured out the solution. I hadn't installed the firebase module in the functions folder but had included it in the parent folder of functions. I went into functions and ran npm install --save firebase and the deploy was successful.
