pack-lambda

CircleCI Coverage Status semantic-release Commitizen friendly npm version

Great .zip packager and S3 uploader for AWS Lambda. Bundles only your prod dependencies that are already installed, no need to prune or copy to a temp directory and do a fresh install. And it even works with dependencies installed by pnpm!

Supports:

  • Scoped packages
  • Same filename as npm pack, except for extension
  • prepack package script
  • --dry-run
  • --pack-destination

Doesn't currently support:

  • Packing other packages in args
  • postpack package script
  • --json
  • --workspace
  • --workspaces

Filenames

The default filename is [name]-[version].zip where [name] is the package name (scoped names like @foo/bar get converted to foo-bar) and [version] is the package version. If the version ends in -development, a timestamp will be appened like [name]-[version]-[timestamp].zip so that the filename is always different and a CloudFormation stack update will always update the Lambda code.

Configuration

You can add the following config to package.json:

{
  "@jcoreio/pack-lambda": {
    /**
     * Excludes dependencies from getting bundled
     * (aws-sdk is pre-installed in the Lambda runtime so you could do this to save space)
     * This has no effect if your package.json contains bundledDependencies
     */
    "excludeDependencies": ["aws-sdk"]
  }
}

CLI

pack-lambda - create a .zip file

npx --package @jcoreio/pack-lambda pack-lambda

Options:
  --version                       Show version number                  [boolean]
  --help                          Show help                            [boolean]
  --dry-run                       display contents without writing file
                                                      [boolean] [default: false]
  --pack-destination              directory in which to save .zip files [string]

Node.js API

writeZip

import { writeZip } from '@jcoreio/pack-lambda'

Packs and writes a .zip to disk

import { ManifestResult } from 'pacote'

   * The directory of the package to pack.  Defaults to process.cwd()
   */
  packageDir?: string
  /**
   * The directory to save .zip file in
   */
  packDestination?: string
  /**
   * If true, will output to stderr but not write to disk
   */
  dryRun?: boolean
}): Promise<{
  /**
   * The files that were packed (relative to packageDir)
   */
  files: string[]
  /**
   * The output .zip filename
   */
  filename: string
  /**
   * The package.json
   */
  manifest: ManifestResult
}>

uploadToS3

import { uploadToS3 } from '@jcoreio/pack-lambda'

Packs and uploads a .zip to S3 (without writing anything to disk)

import { ManifestResult } from 'pacote'

export async function uploadToS3(options: {

createArchive

import { createArchive } from '@jcoreio/pack-lambda'
