pnpm-serverless-demo

A small demo repo to show basic configuration to make pnpm work with serverless framework

Gettings started

Run:

pnpm i
sls invoke local -f quotes # to test locally
sls deploy # Look at bundled .js inside .serverless folder

pnpm creates hardlinks to global pnpm store in node_modules
You can find the store's location by running pnpm store path
serverless-typescript-plugin converts tscode to js but does not do bundling. Requires eiher serverless-plugin-include-dependencies (includes node_modules) or serverless-esbuild (bundler like webpack but faster)

When using pnpm with serverless, transitive dependencies (e.g., form-data that axios needs) is not included in final bundle by default
This is be resolved by either:
- bundling before deploying (e.g., with serverless-esbuild pluging)
- create .npmrc with node-linker=hoisted property. Source
