Serverless v1.0 incompatibility
It seems that the plugin it's not hooking up with the latest release of ServerLess framework ( v1.0 )
Yes, right. The current plugin is compatible with SLS <1.0. Serverless v1.0 has a completely different semantics about configuration and functionality (everything is done by using CloudFormation). So the 1.x.x plugin never will be compatible. There has to be a completely new version.
First there have to be lots of investigations to be done how to handle models with the new version and how CloudFormation interacts with referencing, creating, updating models and how to connect that to function deployments in SLS 1.0.
okay, so we are talking about a major refactoring here . Sweet , maybe a new plugin version could came up before the SLS v1.0 stable release .
Hi @HyperBrain, are you planning in creating a new plugin for sls v1.0? Or do you have any idea how to work-around with Cloudformation if we want to use the models?
I am still evaluating the model integration (at my company we ourselves are not yet on 1.0 because of the missing lambda alias support which is unpracticable if you have 500+ lambdas running). Currently I do not have an ETA for 1.0 support.
Hi @HyperBrain, thanks for your update. I will try to find a solution with a work-around (maybe deployment through cloudformation custom resources or something). If I find something I will let you know in this thread. Good luck with upgrading to sls v1 in you company
@dennisoverbeeke Have you found a work-around? We had the same problem, trying to add models to the Serverless generated APIGateway resource. We decided to write a Serverless 1.0 plugin ourselves. you can find it at here. Hope this helps you. If there is something missing, please let me know :)
Hi @tchock Sorry for replying so late. We had not found a solution but our requirements changed a bit: we mostly used it to generate iOS SDK and Swagger documentation (models are not used for validation in APIG). We wrote our own API Gateway manager in iOS and we do not use swagger but apiary, so we did not really need it anymore. We might re-use them in the future
Thank you very much for developing the plugin and mentioning it to me! Make sure the serverless community knows about your plugin! Regards
I will continue on this plugin for SLS 1.x soon! First I had to take care of alias support for the new framework version which was more important at that point (see https://github.com/HyperBrain/serverless-aws-alias).
After all the experiences I had with the new event based plugin system, I'm pretty confident that I can realize a working version for 1.x in a short timeframe.
@celicoo Well ... honestly this isn't going anywhere right now. I am not able to invest the time needed to port it due to my work on other projects I maintain and manage.
