Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
serverless-esbuild
-
Simple requirement: Bundle dependencies into a single script. esbuild, webpack, bun build throw errors. Solution?
Support Yarn PnP with externals bundling #327

๐ Top-level await in AWS Lamba with TypeScript
We use serverless-esbuild to transpile our TypeScript code to JavaScript.

AWS Lambda 101: Shave That Bundle Down
You should use appropriate tools to bundle your Lambda functions with a minimal size. For example, the Serverless Framework, with the serverless-esbuild plugin, automatically bundles your code and uploads it to AWS.

Announcing a Serverless Microservices Template with GraphQL
One of the most important aspects of serverless development is keeping an eye on your bundle sizes and to reduce cold start times on Lambda. Keeping this in mind, the template utilizes serverless-esbuild and serverless-analyze-bundle-plugin to provide function analysis out-of-the-box. I opted for serverless-esbuild over serverless-bundle for a few reasons:
-
[AWS Lambda] Optimizing node_modules in zip files
Its faster and easier to setup that webpack and drastically reduces the size of the archive. For Serverless framework users there is https://github.com/floydspace/serverless-esbuild and if you use SAM CLI, you already get this for free since they now use esbuild in the build process
-
Dependencies growing too large
if you can, try using https://github.com/floydspace/serverless-esbuild - esbuild is stupid fast and it produces tiny artifacts. Its dead simple too compared to the webpacks/rollups/etc.

Using pure ESM npm packages in serverless-webpack bundles
Since I was using serverless-webpack along with Prisma's serverless-webpack-prisma helper, this meant a bit of extra Webpack config setup to get it all using the same module syntax without the usual dreaded 'Unexpected token export' or import error from Node.
-
Migrating a classic Express.js to Serverless Framework
As you can see in the above handler.js file, we're getting CommonJS instead of modern JavaScript or TypeScript. To get these, you need webpack or some other bundler. serverless-webpack exists if you want full control over your ecosystem, but there is also serverless-bundle that gives you a set of reasonable defaults on webpack 4 out of the box. We opted into this option to get us started quickly.

Running a scalable & reliable GraphQL endpoint with Serverless
cd app-backend/dynamodb yarn install To test the GraphQL endpoint locally on my machine, Iโm using these three plugins for the Serverless Framework: Serverless Offline, Serverless Webpack and Serverless DynamoDB Local.

Package your NodeJS Lambda functions individually with esbuild for faster cold-start times
The serverless framework supports an excellent workflow with the serverless-webpack plugin to package your functions individually with webpack. For AWS SAM, it's probably worth checking out the aws-sam-webpack-plugin, but I've found it far simpler to configure esbuild to perform the same task.
