Configuration Questions

Open baronnoraz opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but I do have a few questions. Double apologies for not figuring out how to do this. I'm 100% new to Nextjs and almost that new to lambda.

  1. How do you specify the S3 bucket to which the website will be deployed?

  2. If I understand, each Nextjs page is turned into a lambda function to serve up that page. I've read that you put API routes in pages/api. Does that work the same in this setup?

  3. In addition to the website, I need to have a lambda function triggered on an S3 put event. Could that API live in the same place (pages/api) or would I need something else (is service the correct word?)

  4. If what I need is a separate service, can I configure that in the serverless.yml file with a service entry? All I've ever seen in my reading are service entries. This is the first time that I've seen a website entry.

  5. Does the Dockerfile serve any special purpose other than to let me run things through Docker if I wanted to?

Thanks for any help you are willing to offer. I'm more than happy to give back by adding documentation to help newbies like me get started using this.
