serverless-enhanced-config v0.0.2-0

serverless-enhanced-config

A serverless plugin to enhance configuration with template features and easier variable handling.

serverless-enhanced-config uses mustache.js to improve Serverless Framework configuration functionality, flexibility and reusability.

An enhanced configuration is rendered in runtime - based on provided template and variables - and then used by serverless, replacing the regular one.

Installation

You can install serverless-enhanced-config via npm:

npm install serverless-enhanced-config

or yarn:

yarn add serverless-enhanced-config

Usage

Using the plugin is quite simple. You'll need: 1. A valid serverless configuration to load serverless-enhanced-config, its settings and variables. For instance, the following serverless.yml:

service: helloworld #=> mandatory: serverless needs it

plugins:
  - serverless-enhanced-config

provider: #===========> mandatory: serverless needs it
  name: aws

custom:
  enhancedConfig: #===> plugin setup with template and variables
    template: template.yml
    variables:
      function:
        name: myfunc
        handler: handlers/myfunc.main
        path: mypath/myfunc
        method: get

2. A template with proper variables placeholders. For example, the template.yml below:

service: helloworld

package:
  individually: true

plugins:
  - serverless-dotenv-plugin

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs12.x
  stage: ${opt:stage, env:stage, 'dev'}
  region: ${opt:region, env:region, 'us-east-1'}

functions:
  {{ function.name }}:
    handler: {{ function.handler }}
    events:
      - http:
          path: {{ function.path }}
          method: {{ function.method }}
          authorizer: aws_iam

All set! You can see the enhanced configuration generated by using the serverless built-in print command:

sls print

Features

Most of the mustache.js features are supported, such as:

• Template and variables decoupled
• Partials (or includes)
• Sections
• Custom delimiters

Serverless native variables ${self.*}, ${env.*} and ${opt.*} are supported within variables and template/partials. Same is true for file includes ${file(*)}.

Examples

• Simple
• Partials
• Delimiters
