Limitation
- Can not stream payload Stream content to function response body on netlify: https://community.netlify.com/t/stream-content-to-function-response-body/3558
- Use for build api set
Approach use default location
Mean the functions folder placed at root location
- netlify.toml
[build]
command = "npm install && npm run build"
functions = "functions"
- package.json
{
"name": "expressjs_netlify",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"build": "netlify-lambda build express",
"start": "netlify-lambda serve express"
},
"devDependencies": {
"body-parser": "^1.19.0",
"cookie-parser": "^1.4.5",
"netlify-lambda": "^1.6.3",
"serverless-http": "^2.3.0"
},
"keywords": [],
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"dependencies": {}
}
On https://app.netlify.com/ Build settings, make sure the Pulish directory is Not set
Try to test and it works
Approach use dist location
Some SPA build to dist folder, and you want to integrate functions lambda too
- netlify.toml
[build]
command = "npm install && npm run build"
functions = "dist/functions"
- package.json
{
"name": "expressjs_netlify",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"build": "rm -rf dist && mkdir -p dist && netlify-lambda build express",
