Serverless Esbuild Template

This is a template repository to get you started really quickly with the serverless framework and typescript, using the incredible esbuild. It is slighlty opinionated.

TL:DR => How to use

# Make sure you have a modern node environment (example: node 14+, yarn)
# Make sure you have AWS credentials https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-files.html

# Install dependencies
yarn

# Make sure everything works ™
yarn test

# Bundle your code and deploy it (This creates the needed AWS resources, Lambda, apiGw, s3...)
# Deploy will output the URL, refer to serverless documentation to see how everything gets mapped from the serverless.yml
# Everything is configurable, the default stage is dev, and default region is us-east-1
yarn deploy

# Example using curl to test your deployed lambda (make sure to use the correct url)
curl https://00000000.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/dev/hello | jq

# Remove service (Removes everything created by sls deploy)
yarn remove

⚙ Eslint / Prettier / Typescript / Yarn / dotenv

With sensible defaults because writing boilerplate takes too much time.

dotenv is intentionally a dev dependencies, if you want to use it at runtime, move it to dependencies, import it in your code then load your env file.

🧪 Tests with Jest, GitHub Actions, Dependabot

An example of an integration test that works with the great sls offline and the node-fetch package.

Simply run :

yarn test

A Github Action basic pipeline is setup with yarn caching and tests, check .github/workflows/main.yaml

📴 Serverless-offline dev/start/stop scripts with pm2

pm2 is a node process manager, very handy when you're dealing with several local microservices ...

{
    "offline:dev": "yarn ts scripts/offline.ts dev",
    "offline:start": "yarn ts scripts/offline.ts start",
    "offline:stop": "yarn ts scripts/offline.ts stop"
}

• offline:dev : Start sls offline in the foreground.
• offline:start : Start sls offline in the background with pm2, log the output to pm2.log
• offline:stop : Terminate the pm2 process(es) cleanly (based on the name, check offline.ts)

Check offline.ts if you need custom behavior.

🌀 Serverless.ts

Use a serverless.ts files instead of a serverless.yml file for the configuration. You can delete the serverless.ts and rename serverless.example.yml to serverless.yml if you prefer yaml. Refer to the docs. More info in the PR.
